Trial advocacy through courtroom examples

Shane D. Read’s guide centers its instruction on video and transcripts from actual trials, pairing courtroom performance with analysis of trial techniques and strategy. The supplied description notes that the examples include both effective and ineffective lawyering, and that two DVDs provide four hours of video. It also describes a section on jury decision-making developed with jury consultants at DecisionQuest. This combination makes the book’s approach notably example-based: trial advocacy is examined through recorded proceedings and accompanying transcripts, rather than presented only as abstract principles.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Law students taking introductory or advanced trial advocacy courses
  • Lawyers seeking material for trial-skills study or firm training programs
  • Readers interested in jury decision-making and courtroom strategy

Winning at Trial by Shane Read is the only book that teaches trial skills by analyzing video and transcripts of actual trials. It is also the only book that reveals the secrets of jury decision-making through the use of video in collaboration with one of the nation's foremost jury consultants, DecisionQuest. This innovative book is being used by law schools throughout the country for both their introductory and advanced trial advocacy classes, as well as by law firms for their training programs. The author, a seasoned trial lawyer and professor, has carefully selected video and transcripts from actual trials (4 hours of video on two DVDs) that show lawyers demonstrating both great and terrible skills in the courtroom - which teach trial techniques and strategy in an interesting and memorable way.
