Moe Levine was a pioneer in educating fellow trial lawyers on trial strategy, issue framing, and the mastery of forensic medicine. He has provided inspiration to many of the nation’s leading lawyers. His ideas are timeless, and apply as much today as when he used them over thirty years ago. This collection of his publicly available lectures and trial transcripts is the most complete book ever produced on the winning strategies of Moe Levine. Since his death in 1974, the nation’s leading trial lawyers and jury consultants have passed down Moe Levine’s teachings through their own trial work. Now, for the first time in over thirty years, you can learn these winning trial strategies directly from Moe Levine.

What Legal Leaders Are Saying

Trial Guides again trumps the big guys. In this continuing era of ‘tort-reformed’ jurors, the hard lesson is that the old ways no longer work, and we need something else. So we invent new things. But no less important is the precious trove of Moe Levine’s ways. What he did and taught way back then is dead-on what we need now. How so prescient? He dwelled at the intersection of mind and heart, the place that determines the outcome of every case. And he teaches you how to live there, too.
