Description

Court room advocacy requires practical skills. The episodes in this Podcast explain and illustrate the skills that advocates need in any adversarial system.


Episodes are up to 15 minutes, so easily fitted into your busy day. Although the episodes follow a logical order each one is 'stand alone', because every advocate has different needs.


With near 7000 hits ( October 2023) this free series is helping those who want to be better advocates.


An inexpensive, companion book with the same title ADVOCACY IN COURT: PREPARATION AND PERFORMANCE is on Amazon Kindle.


Please tell other 'wanna to be better' advocates AND get your witnesses to listen to WITNESS ESSENTIALS.
