Cross-Examination Skills - Crafting Great! Credibility Arguments & The Cross-Examination of the Century

Friday, April 14, 2023 - Webinar only

In every case, no matter the area of law, litigators attack – skillfully or otherwise – the credibility of their opponent’s evidence: a fact-witness’s observations; an expert’s opinion, a document, and/or real evidence. The ability to recognize and craft credibility arguments is crucial to successful litigation, yet few [any?] law schools or law firms teach it. This presentation does brilliantly and entertainingly, using video clips from the watched-by-tens-of-millions cross-examination conducted by legendary trial attorney F. Lee Bailey of Los Angeles police detective Mark [“I Found the Murderer’s Glove at O. J. Simpson’s Home”] Fuhrman. Measured by publicity and viewership, State of California vs. O. J. Simpson was rightly deemed the trial of the 20th century (and, thus far, the 21st’s), and Bailey’s 3-day Q&A of Fuhrman was THE centerpiece of that trial.
