This series is one of several series (together with the other “Newbie Litigator School” series) that Financial Poise designed specifically for attorneys who are just starting to get involved in civil litigation or who could use a refresher on some litigation fundamentals. The purpose is to introduce different components and phases of litigation, from the basic rules of civil procedure and evidence, to dispositive motions, through trial, and on to appeal and post-judgment collection work.
As with every Financial Poise webinar, each episode in this series is delivered in Plain English understandable to investors, business owners, and executives without much background in these areas, yet is also valuable to attorneys, accountants, and other seasoned professionals. And, as with every Financial Poise webinar , each episode brings you into engaging, sometimes humorous, conversations designed to entertain as it teaches. Each episode in the series is designed to be viewed independently of the other episodes, so that participants will enhance their knowledge of this area whether they attend one, some, or all episodes.
As the cost and duration of litigation continue to increase, clients have begun demanding fee arrangements that deliver maximum value and best mitigate risk. This webinar explores the mechanics and pros and cons of various fee arrangements, from hourly to contingent to mixtures of the two. We also discuss the increasingly popular option of third-party litigation finance. This webinar is delivered in Plain English, understandable to you even if you do not have a background in the subject. It brings you into an engaging, even sometimes humorous, conversation designed to entertain as it teaches. And, it is specifically designed to be viewed as a stand-alone webinar, meaning that you do not have to view the other webinars in the series to get a lot out of it.
