Download or read book The How to win Trial Manual Sixth Edition written by Ralph Adam Fine and published by Juris Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2015-02-01 with total page 697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Win More Cases and Help More Clients! Ralph Adam Fine pulls no punches. In the sixth edition of his highly acclaimed How-To-Win Trial Manual shows why the traditional ways to try a case in court are suicidal, and gives extensive examples of such suicidal advocacy by famous, high-profile, well-paid trial lawyers. In each of his examples, Ralph Adam Fine shows how the lawyers could have done a better job. This will help you hone your winning skills! Ralph Adam Fine also demonstrates why many of Irving Younger’s famous Ten Commandments of Cross-Examination are not only wrong, but why following them significantly reduces your chances of winning. Since it was first published by JURIS in 1998, Ralph Adam Fine’s The How-To-Win Trial Manual has been giving lawyers that special edge so they can win even the toughest cases. Now, in this newly revised sixth edition, The How-To-Win Trial Manual takes the unique extra step of showing how and why famed trial lawyers Vincent Bugliosi and Gerry Spence, both superb advocates, could have been even more effective in their ground breaking face-off when Bugliosi “prosecuted” and Spence “defended” Lee Harvey Oswald in connection with the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The trial, memorialized in a superb two-disc DVD set, On Trial: Lee Harvey Oswald, was before a sitting Texas federal district-court judge and a jury of Dallas citizens taken from the Dallas jury rolls. Although the trial was more than two-decades removed from the assassination, Bugliosi and Spence managed to get as witnesses many of the people who were at the assassination and its aftermath; none of the witnesses testifying in the trial were actors. The “trial” was in London, in a replica of a Texas federal courtroom, and both Bugliosi and Spence gave it their all—preparing as they would have for a real trial, and arguing their respective positions with the gusto for which each is justifiably famous. Ralph Adam Fine has taken the transcript of the two-disc DVD set and shown with his interleaved comments, as he has done with the O.J. Simpson, Martha Stewart, and Enron (Jeffrey Skilling and Ken Lay) trials, as well as a federal-court antitrust trial, how Bugliosi and Spence could have been better. The Oswald chapter, new for the sixth edition, will help all trial lawyers nail the winning techniques to be successful in the courtroom. The sixth edition also gives us Ralph Adam Fine’s special insights into the strategies and trial techniques of the prosecution and defense in the murder trial of Michael Peterson, memorialized in the six-hour DVD set, Death on the Staircase. Peterson was charged with killing his wife. He claimed at trial that she accidentally fell down the stairs in their Durham, North Carolina, mansion. This chapter, too, is new for the sixth edition How-To-Win Trial Manual and it shows what works and what does not work and why. It will help lawyers avoid the common traps that sink even the best “plans well laid.” The How-To-Win Trial Manual shows how to win by using your most powerful tool: The jury’s belief that you, the lawyer, know the “truth” of the case. Ralph Adam Fine also shows how to ask questions on both direct-examination and cross-examination so the jury will know the answers before the witnesses (whether lay or expert) respond. Simply put, if you phrase your questions so that the jury answers them the way you want, before your witnesses answer and irrespective of what your adversary’s witnesses may say on cross-examination, you will win! For a further explanation of Ralph Adam Fine's - and winning - techniques, as well as what other lawyers have said about The How To Win Trial Manual, visit his website www.win-your-trial.com Ralph Adam Fine shows you how to do all of this and more! You and your clients deserve no less!

Download or read book Practical Trial Handbook written by Mark Curry and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-04 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Practical Trial Handbook is a concise and practical treatise on the rules of evidence, trial procedures, and basic trial skills and strategies that every attorney must know in order to competently and effectively try any type of case in any jurisdiction. Referencing the Federal Rules of Evidence (FRE) and trial procedure, the handbook explains the fundamentals of a court or jury trial, from the motion in limine to the final argument and everything in between. Topics of discussion include pre-trial procedures, jury selection, witness testimony, opening statements, direct and cross-examination, witness impeachment and rehabilitation, foundational requirements for the admissibility of evidence, hearsay and other exclusionary rules, expert witnesses, trial objections, character evidence, and closing argument. Written by a retired trial court judge with 36 years of experience in the courtroom, the handbook also includes more than 150 "Trial Tips," practical real-world advice by the author on trying a case that cannot be learned in the classroom nor found in other trial treatises. They provide not only basic "how to" advice, but also give suggestions on trial tactics or strategies the author has found to be effective. These informal and wide-ranging "Trial Tips" are found throughout the handbook for nearly every stage of a trial and are what sets this handbook apart from the other trial guides. Regardless of the type of case or the jurisdiction, the same basic rules of evidence and trial procedure apply. Furthermore, in every trial an attorney must possess the requisite basic trial skills and knowledge to try the case, e.g., the ability to question witnesses, introduce evidence, or argue the merits. This handbook is designed to distill these fundamentals into one, concise, and easy to follow format. It is designed not only as a learning resource for law students and less experienced trial lawyers, but also as a refresher for the veterans. It is a handbook every attorney should have in his or her library for reference when preparing for the next trial or evidentiary hearing. This edition focuses on the Federal Rule of Evidence and basic trial procedure, making it applicable not only to Federal Court, but also to state court jurisdictions that follow the Federal Rules. There is also a companion edition, Practical Trial Handbook California, which references only the California Rules of Evidence and basic trial procedure. The Practical Trial Handbook California is also available on-line at: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B098JVZRSX?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Practical Trial Website For more information on both handbooks, including introductory comments by the author, chapter summaries, and sample "Trial Tips," visit the handbook website at: https://www.practicaltrialhandbook.com/
