By far the most thorough and detailed of the books in the field, Trial Techniques and Trials is a comprehensive yet concise handbook that covers all aspects of the trial process and provides excellent examples illustrating strategies for opening statements, jury selection, direct- and cross-examination, exhibits, objections, and more. Extensive examples are clustered into three groups: personal injury, commercial, and criminal for ease in finding particular areas of trial practice. Tom Mauet and Steve Easton, renowned for their skills both as writers and trial attorneys, break the trial process down into its critical components for better and quicker comprehension by students and practicing attorneys who have little or no trial experience.

New to the Twelfth Edition:

• Additional emphasis on the importance of relating to jurors, including grabbing--and keeping--the jurors' attention
• Updates to reflect changes in the Federal Rules of Evidence
• Discussion of the occasional differences of opinion among effective trial lawyers about some trial tactics

Professors and students will benefit from:

• Integrated discussion of the strategy and psychology of persuasion--particularly regarding jury selection, opening statements, and closing arguments
• Numerous illustrations from tort cases, criminal cases, and commercial trials
• Broad and flexible examples that allow readers to focus on either the plaintiff's or the defendant's side of the case--or both
• Logical organization that follows the chronology of a trial process
• A companion website with additional examples, a trial notebook, and other tools for trial lawyers
• Video lectures about critical trial moments
• Video demonstrations of effective trial advocacy, including a complete jury trial
• Extensive supplemental materials available on the book's Connected Casebook resource page
