In closing arguments at trial, too many experienced attorneys simply retell the witness testimony without turning that story into an effective argument to persuade the jury. The recent Casey Anthony trial provides but another example of how an effective closing can impact the verdict. In this session of our series of programs on the key aspects of trial, Jones Day partners Tom Jackson and Mike Ginsberg focus on how to make the story of the trial come alive.
