Effective Opening Statements

Opening statement is critical to set the tone for your case.  It is a trial lawyer’s first opportunity to present his or her case to the jury from their client’s perspective.  It will shape the jury’s views of your defense and case.  Therefore, it must be carefully planned and prepared.  Learn from Tom Dukes, a board certified trial attorney, how to present an effective opening statement.  He will teach us how to develop a theme, how to deal with bad facts, and other effective tools for opening statements.  Fl Bar Approved for 1 CLE Credit and 1 Civil Trial Cert Credit.
