Summary: Tremendously entertaining and enlightening.
Comment: This is a book of a famous attorney who lived from the late 1800's to the l940's. His book is a description of his many court appearances and the value of cross-examination to discover truth and fraud. It is a must read for anyone who anticipates being on the witness stand, especially expert witinesses. It has great humor, but more importantly, describes the time proven methods of cross examination to bring out the truth. It demystifies the process and gives a human side to a mostly misunderstood and mistrusted activity. It also shows why cross examination is so very important. As a physician, I have been on witness hot-seats many times in cases brought against others. I would have given most any thing for the knowledge in this book. A must-read for anybody anticipating ever being a witness! --John Ellis, M

Summary: A must
Comment: to simplify things, It's the Sun Tsu's "Art of war" for a lawyer.
It was written some 100 years ago, but hey: weren't those the days of the great, classic cross-examinations? besides, the chapter about the cross of experts is especially relevant in our days.
the book helped me understand myself, the wittness and the judge during the trial, and complicated as well as simplified things.
The examples really help you through the tactics described.
The best I've read, and the cheapest I've bought.
Imagine.

Summary: Excellent, but also see Keith Evan's Common Sense Rules
Comment: Wellman's book is a classic. But another classic that any lawyer who wants to be an excellent advocate should also read is Keith Evan's Common Sense Rules of Advocacy for Lawyers.
Mr. Evans practiced as a trial lawyer in California for many years after a decade as a barrister in England. He also taught as an adjunct law professor and gave many presentations to American Inns of Court.
Common Sense Rules of Advocacy for Lawyers is now published by TheCapitol.Net, and more information about Evans' book is available on their web site: thecapitol.net
If you want to be a excellent advocate, you should buy BOTH Wellman and Common Sense Rules of Advocacy for Lawyers.
