Information provided on the LexisNexis' website:

This is the first and only Canadian book dedicated to practice before civil juries. Written by two top expert litigators, this practical and easy-to-read book provides extensive guidance on how to apply and benefit from the concepts of courtroom communication and persuasion.

In today’s advocacy world where young lawyers seldom get the opportunity to try cases before a jury, this is an essential read before trying a lawyer’s first case before a jury. This book will also be invaluable to civil and criminal lawyers alike, even in judge alone trials.
