Description

Written by an experienced trial lawyer, this book will help you understand the art of cross-examination. Not only will it prepare you for the courtroom, but it will also help you become a successful lawyer.

One of the most well-known courtroom situations, cross-examination is the formal interrogation of a witness called by the other party in a court of law to challenge or extend testimony already given. It is the prosecutor or defence attorney's opportunity to strengthen his or her own case by questioning the opposite side's witness. To do so with expertise, calm, and finesse is a hard-learned but invaluable skill.

In The Absolute Beginner's Guide to Cross-Examination, trial lawyer and teacher Samuel A. Stern demonstrates that conducting an effective cross-examination is a learned skill and that his comprehensive teachings are its foundation. This contemporary and clear guide is designed so that you can quickly and effectively cross-examine.

Learn how to successfully cross-examine a witness in this easy-to-read, step-by-step guide. This book will be an integral addition to the shelf of every law student, lawyers who have newly passed the bar exam, law professors, and even seasoned practising lawyers. Cross-examination is an art, and Stern teaches you the finest aspects of it in The Absolute Beginner's Guide to Cross-Examination.
