All levels of trial practitioner will feel more confident and effective after this workshop and leave with a new set of \u201ctools\u201d for the trial toolbag.<\/p>\n<cite><strong>Angelica Hall, New Mexico Trial Attorney<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Michael presents jury selection as someone with experience in the trenches. Since attending his course I have selected over 20 juries, and in every one have prepared by my notes from his advice. If you\u2019ve found theoretical presentations on jury selection lacking, here is a chance to explore the real word of trial practice.<\/p>\n<cite><strong>Sen.

Michael was excellent. I learned many important ways to communicate effectively in many different settings (cross, voir dire, direct). It was an extremely valuable and empowering experience.

There is no substitute for actually conducting voir dire and cross-examination under Mr. Stout&#8217;s scrutiny. His feedback and critiques are invaluable. I guarantee these courses will change forever the way you ask questions &#8212; for your good and that of your clients. <\/p>\n<cite><strong>Rep.
