Event Description:

Cross-examination in civil and criminal trials is a system, not a set of random techniques. The system is based not on legal concepts but on interdisciplinary principles, and is built with mutually supportive tools designed to always advance the cross-examiner’s theory of the case. This lecture will teach you these tools, as well as provide an analysis of the effects of neuroscience, psychology, and linguistics on witnesses. You will learn secrets to controlling questioning and never again fear that a witness will get away from you on cross.

 

Event Agenda:

The Only Three Rules of Cross

Chapter Method of Cross

Looping, Double Looping, and Spontaneous Looping

20 Techniques to Control the Runaway Witness
