Spend a few hours hearing directly from judges with tips on the proper ways to address the court, and from experienced counsel on how they prepare a witness to testify, their expert witness considerations, and e-trial procedure options. Our presenters help you better understand court jurisdiction, how to proceed with a jury trial when it's appropriate, and much more.

  • Consider the most important Rules of Civil Procedure
  • Learn how to refine your skills for submissions on costs and on law, penalties, remedies or disposition
  • Hear from triers of fact on how best to present effective opening and closing statements
