Achieving Great Cross Examinations Through Virtues

The Litigation Counsel of America is please to announce that Victor Vital, a partner in the Dallas office of Barnes & Thornburg LLP, will present a complimentary webinar entitled “Achieving Great Cross Examinations Through Virtues” on Thursday, January 14 at 1PM EST.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

It has been said by some, “Trial is war.” Whether one agrees with that statement, trials certainly are zero-sum exercises. Thus, many advocates forget or don’t even consider the role that virtue plays in the trial process. As trials are a microcosm of life, it is worth considering virtue. If a worthy goal in life is to live virtuously, one should consider such in the trial process, including in the art and practice of cross-examination.
