Description: NEWBIE LITIGATOR SCHOOL - PART I 2021 Series
Episode #3: Anatomy of a Trial
September 14, 2021 at 2:00 PM CST
This webinar’s focus is on the “nuts and bolts” of a civil trial. Panelists discuss witness preparation, the selection and presentation of exhibits, motions in limine, opening statements, direct and cross-examination, and closing arguments. They will also address issues that often arise during trials and how best to present a case to the finder of fact.
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.

He has experience in every phase of litigation, from dispositive motions and discovery through judgment collection and appeal.
Matthew earned his B.A. in 2006 from Northwestern University, where he was a member of the Northwestern Debate Society.

But in addition to being a tenacious litigator, Mr. Hellerman takes his role as counselor very seriously, and consistently counsels his clients to make the best and most reasonable decisions to achieve their goals, which often results in avoidance of, or at least the scaling back of, litigation.
