Knowing when to make objections, and how to support and oppose them, is a vital courtroom skill. Equally important is knowing when to keep silent. In this program, expert litigators teach you not only how to understand the proper grounds for making objections-and how to effectively argue and oppose them-but also how to decide when it is in your best interests to do so. Select this workshop’s in-person Boston option for the exclusive opportunity to test your knowledge in a mock courtroom setting, where you can try out the skills you have learned and get essential feedback on your performance.
Please note that this program will be held ONLINE ONLY. If you originally registered for the in-person option, you will receive an email with a personalized link to the webcast. You will still get the chance to be on your feet and making objections, but we will do it virtually! We look forward to seeing all of you online!
