There is the study of law. There is the practice of law. And then there is the practice of law during trial. Someone wishing to study the law of hearsay, for example, can find ample resources that chronicle its historical and philosophical underpinnings. When it comes to the practice of law during trial, knowing the origins of hearsay is less helpful than being able to—at a moment’s notice—spot and seamlessly apply the rule. When it comes to learning advocacy, books and resources too often amount to little more than anecdotal war stories. To be sure, such stories can be wildly entertaining, but they are of limited value to the practitioner. What one judge considered a perfectly adequate opening statement, another might have ruled that it crossed the line between an allowable opening statement and an impermissible opening argument. Evidence at Trial is for the practitioner looking to integrate the art of persuasion and the mastery of evidence. The rules of evidence are the trial lawyer’s swords and shields. The effective litigator has those weapons habitually at the ready. The master litigator artfully wields them to persuasively argue his or her case to the jury.

Evidence at Trial is the practitioner’s resource for learning how to persuasively apply the rules of evidence at every stage of a case. Discovery is often where parties start laying the foundation for evidentiary battles down the road. For example, litigators without a deep understanding of the business records exception to the hearsay rule can run into admissibility problems at summary judgment if they were not able to obtain the key admissions at deposition. From articles and videos to comprehensive live events, Evidence at Trial is what every business litigator needs.
