This seminar provides both new and experienced practitioners with real-life examples and suggestions to demystify the Probate and Family Court and the effective use of evidence at trial. With a panel of experienced practitioners, this seminar gives you insight into how evidence can be used effectively at trial. In addition, the panelists discuss their experience in what works and, perhaps most importantly, what does not work.
