Last week our partner Peter Saghir and our managing partner Ben Rubinowitz served as faculty at the American Bar Association (ABA) Litigation Section and National Institute for Trial Advocacy (NITA) Legal Services Advocacy Program held in New York City. This program offers free two-day intensive trial advocacy training to attorneys who do not usually have access to this type of training.
During the workshop, Peter and Ben volunteered their time to train lawyers in the art of trial advocacy who work at various services for indigent clients including Prisoners Legal Services of New York, The Legal Aid Society of Northeastern New York, Bronx legal services, Queens legal services, The Urban Justice Center, The Brooklyn defender services, The Federal Public Defender, and Staten Island legal services.
