This 50 minute presentation is a must-see for every trial lawyer. Attorney Stephen Lindsay will walk you through the basics of communication with jurors and how to present yourself as an exhibit. You will learn how to use basic items like charts and enlarged photographs to help the jury see events clearly. Mr. Lindsay will also show you how to use novel question tactics to help witnesses describe situations, circumstances and events in greater detail in order to stimulate the jurors imaginations. Are you having trouble litigating eyewitness identification? Mr. Lindsay will explain how using a Mr. Potato Head doll and paint chips can help debunk bad identifications. Watch this presentation and you will understand how to turn all aspects of your trial tactics, not just exhibits, into demonstrative evidence
