This indispensable collection of articles from Litigation magazine provides trial lawyers a blueprint for success in the art of effective cross-examination. With tips ranging from technical to practical, a lawyer preparing for cross-examination will find guidance on every angle: impeachment; how to prepare and ask questions; timing; and examining various types of witnesses.
With skill that can only come from vast trial experience, Charlie Gibbons reviewed and analyzed articles spanning the course of forty years, extracting key principles on the art of cross-examination that are essential for trial lawyers to master. This is a must read for every lawyer who will cross-examine a witness before a jury. A great how-to book for the inexperienced trial lawyer and an effective reminder to the experienced litigator about why it’s called the “art” of cross-examination.
