Cross-Examination:
The Comprehensive Guide For Experts

By Steven Babitsky, Esquire, and James J. Mangraviti, Jr., Esquire 
© 2003 SEAK, Inc. 

The ultimate measure of every expert is how well the expert performs during cross-examination. SEAK’s new text, Cross-Examination: The Comprehensive Guide For Experts will help experts quickly and efficiently master the art of responding to each and every cross-examination question truthfully and artfully.  Experts will learn how to prepare for, anticipate, recognize, and effectively deal with counsel's:

v    
Hypothetical questions
v    
Leading you down a path and boxing you in
v    
Mischaracterization of your testimony/opinion

Personal attacks
v    
Questions about money/fees

Questions from out in left field

Like their previous books on expert witnessing, the authors write in a concise, no-nonsense manner and provide hundreds of examples. Each example is accompanied by its own “lesson” which carefully dissects the exchange between attorney and expert and gives the reader specific,  practical advice.  Experts will learn: 

·        What opposing counsel is likely to ask and why,

·        How to prepare for, and defeat, counsel’s tactics,

·        Multiple responses to 75 of the most difficult questions experts may face,

·        How jurors perceive cross-examination of experts,

·        What opposing counsel can and can not ask,

·        Dozens of advanced techniques to perform superbly during cross,

·        How to become a “dangerous” expert, and

·        Much, much more. 

Cross-Examination: The Comprehensive Guide for Experts comes with a 30-day money back guarantee. It is hardbound, 432 pages long and features 10 chapters and a detailed index. Each chapter begins with a quick read executive summary.  Order your copy today.
