As Judge Herbert Stern notes in his classic Trying Cases to Win, most of us stumble out of schools of law and into courts of law, with little knowledge of how actually to try a case. And few tasks are as intimidating as presenting a case to a jury. But trial practice can be learned and mastered. In this program, leading trial advocates and experienced judges will teach the basics of a federal trial, from voir dire to verdict, and share their “how-to” tips and tricks for victory in the courtroom.
