Robert Musante is the nation's foremost teacher of deposition cross-examination skills. A former deputy district attorney, civil trial attorney, and lecturer in trial practice for 16 years at the University of California, Boalt Hall Law School, he has taught his unique and highly entertaining seminars to more than 30,000 litigators in 42 states. He has made in-house presentations to the attorneys general of 11 states and to the partners and associates of nearly 80 litigation law firms.
The adverse expert is typically the most dangerous witness and, at the same time, the most vulnerable. Most dangerous because he testifies cloaked in the mantle of the unbiased scientist; thus his testimony-if accepted by the jury-can determine an issue, maybe the entire case. Yet, most vulnerable because, unlike the fact witness who must defend only his first-hand observations, the expert witness must defend his testimony from attacks on multiple fronts.
This seminar presents the one right, logical method with which to effectively attack the adverse expert's opinion at deposition… no matter the area of law, no matter the field of expertise. As never before, this seminar brilliantly elucidates that logical method and teaches the archetypal set of integrated questions that are at the heart of every great adverse expert deposition… and every trial cross-examination.
