In Trial Tactics, legendary trial lawyers Rick Friedman and Roger Dodd present solutions for effectively handling every element of a civil jury trial—from case selection to post-trial motions. Friedman and Dodd bring together their most important methods, discussing how to use Pozner & Dodd’s method of cross-examination in cases where you also use Friedman's Rules of the Road™.

In this recorded CLE presentation, they answer questions that stump even the most experienced lawyers:

How to most effectively deal with limited or no voir dire in your jurisdiction
Creating a cohesive and empowered jury, starting in voir dire
How to deal with a client’s difficult background in voir dire and opening
How and when to talk about money with the jury
Winning in opening
Whether it’s better to use a constructive or destructive cross-examination
What you should discuss in your first closing, and what to reserve for your second closing

Also featured are Zoe Littlepage and Rainey Booth—two of America’s leading pharmaceutical litigators—as they discuss the use of creative visual aids and how to work with witnesses, to obtain record-setting verdicts.
