Description

The effective and persuasive use of exhibits at trial, both substantive and demonstrative, is vital to a trial lawyer’s success. In this session of our popular series of programs on key aspects of trial, trial preparation, and litigation skills, Jones Day partners Tom Jackson and Mike Ginsberg discuss the creation, admission, and use of exhibits to enhance the persuasiveness of the evidentiary presentation at trial. In particular, our presenters, who have over 50 years of combined experience in litigation and have been teaching trial skills to Jones Day associates and others for more than 20 years, discuss the use of exhibits to set the scene, to explain key facts and relationships, and to highlight evidentiary issues central to the lawsuit.
