Reseñas de la Crítica

"Melsheimer and Smith are legal superstars and On the Jury Trial is the best new trial and courtroom handbook." (Alan Albright, Bracewell LLP)

“Offers concrete, helpful and insightful advice to both young and experienced trial lawyers alike." (Law360)

Excellent substance and delivery.

I am an aspiring lawyer and I thought this book was very insightful and informative. It is put together in a manner that flows very well.

Excellent Book

As a lawyer early in my trial career, this book has given me invaluable insights and practical tips for handling my cases.

great book.

there are lots of practical tips that can be applied immediately. I especially like the section on preparing your witness for deposition, but the whole book is excellent.

Very knowledgeable and experienced trial lawyers break down trial advocacy piece by piece.

Excellent trial summary by experienced practitioners. Covers everything trial related from A to Z.   A good read with solid tips and practical advice.

Succinct, common tactics, with a maddening parrot!

The advice on advocacy is fair enough: quick and clean; after which, the narrator delivers court dialogue, and unnecessarily, and as if to drive us mad, repeats, "Question," "Answer," ad nauseum.
Holy God. Torturous!

Seems good but the robo voice is piercing.

Content is great but something with the voice or recording quality just goes right through me. I can’t listen to it for 8 hours. I just can’t.
