An essential go-to reference for law students, paralegals, and trial lawyers, Evidence in Practice: Skills and Strategies for Pretrial and Trial, with Practice Exercises, Second Edition is a concise how-to manual for all things evidence.
Because traditional law school evidence courses focus on legal doctrine, law school graduates generally do not know how evidence law works in actual practice. Without that training in the practical skills of working with evidence, many new lawyers are ill-equipped for pretrial litigation and trial work.
Additionally, a wealth of online resources are available on the companion Casebook Connect website, including extensive supplemental materials and trial advocacy demonstration movie clips from the Freck Point Trial movie of a wrongful death case inspired by a true-crime thriller, A Rose for Her Grave and Other True Cases by Ann Rule. Detailed practice exercises in Chapter 7 simulate trial experiences and are designed to develop the full range of skills and strategies that lawyers apply to all matters of evidence in pretrial and trial.
Evidence in Practice is versatile. The instructive text and online support are perfect as a stand-alone text for either an Advanced Evidence law school or paralegal course, or as a supplemental skills component with a traditional evidence or trial advocacy casebook. It also can serve as an evidence handbook for trial lawyers. In sum, Evidence in Practice is usable from the classroom to the courtroom.
