SUMMARY:MCLE Presents: Pozner on Cross
DESCRIPTION:This program is hosted by MCLE. Any questions or issues regarding this program should be directed there. (customerservice@mcle.org). This event is being listed for informational purposes only. CPCS staff cannot assist with\, or solve\, registration issues.\nPOZNER ON CROSS: OCTOBER 29\, 2021 (9:30 to 4:30) CLE:  6 MH CREDITS \n\n\n\nPOZNER ON CROSS \nIt’s not your strong opening argument. It’s not your skillful direct. It’s not how many of your impassioned objections the judge sustains. It’s not your confident demeanor. It’s not even how you tie your theory of the case together with a dazzling closing statement bow. \nWhat wins your trial is your cross. \nCross-examination is the single most important element of a trial well-conducted. When you learn to do it right\, Larry Pozner says\, you accomplish four critical goals: (1) you amp up the witness’s voice to relate each fact of your story to the jury; (2) you break that story down into clear\, veridical “chapters”—factual building blocks that trigger and channel jury cognitions; (3) you construct logical\, semantic links between your opening and closing—links necessary for the jury to resonate with your theory of the case; and (4) you use witness emotion—like anxiety—to reconstruct fading memories\, compel honesty\, eliminate distortions\, close down paths to irrational outcomes\, and empower your jury to reach a clear decision. \nPozner shares signature techniques well-grounded in current thinking about the neuroscience of decision\, memory\, and emotion. He trains you on three tactical rules of cross-examination that have made his bestselling book\, Cross-Examination: Science and Techniques (3rd Ed.\, LexisNexis)\, a wildly popular guide for courtroom lawyers. He explains how leading questions can moderate witness behavior on the stand; how simple sentence construction\, fact-ordering\, and the paintbrush of mental imagery can make a witness malleable; and how simple\, logic-based facts can build memorable narrative\, channel judge and jury cognition\, and drive the engine of inference to your advantage. \nPozner calls his technique “The Chapter Method of Cross-Examination.” Learn it just once\, and you can use it with spectacular results for the rest of your career. This entertaining\, hands-on training offers you sample “chapters” and powerful sample scripts that you can tailor to your own facts. Let Pozner teach you how to derail your opponent and impeach the key witness—even the most evasive\, memory-challenged or talkative one—in just a matter of minutes.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstructor\n\n\n\nLarry Pozner is a nationally recognized trial lawyer\, lecturer\, and author out of Denver\, CO. Larry’s lectures are built around the newest tools for understanding how to motivate jurors to award us the verdict we seek\, the advanced techniques of cross that can immediately result in an advantage in trial\, and how we can all become quicker at crafting the cross examinations that win cases. Larry began his career in the Colorado Public Defender system. He later formed a criminal defense firm\, and a subsequent firm handling both plaintiff and defense sides of document-intensive civil matters for businesses large and small\, but if we are being blunt\, mostly large. For many years Larry defended the Denver Broncos franchise in trials including the lawsuit challenging Pat Bowlen’s purchase of the team. Larry won\, which is why he could remain in Colorado. Larry is a past-President of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He is listed in Best Lawyers in America for Bet-the-Company litigation\, and in Criminal Defense\, both White Collar and Non-White Collar crimes. He has lectured in 48 states\, throughout Canada\, and strangely\, Brazil. As a teacher at the University of Denver College of Law he was voted Best Professor. But that may have been due to his “nobody flunks” policy.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMaterials\n\n\n\nThe materials for this program are available online only and can be downloaded via the link emailed to you upon registration.\n\n\nAlso\, there is no need to take extensive notes. Two weeks after the live seminar\, all registrants will receive a link to a verbatim transcript of this program.\n\n\n\nTuition (includes written materials) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n$295\n\n\n$265.50 MCLE Sponsor Members\n\n\n$221.25 New Lawyers admitted to law practice after 2018\,\nPending Admittees\, Law Students\, and ParalegalsTo apply for a need-based scholarship\, email scholarships@mcle.org\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Motion in Limine practice in the Berkshires
DESCRIPTION:In this one-hour training\, Emily Herder and Dorothy Storrow will discuss the ins and outs of Motion in Limine practice in the Berkshires.  Participants will receive Attorney Herder’s extensively researched model motion and memo of law.  These pleadings can be used as a starting point for your motions in limine.  They also provide an extensive review of the evidentiary law governing admission of documentary evidence in CAFL proceedings.  Learn how Attorney Herder has used this model to streamline drafting motions in limine.  Hone your arguments to successfully argue for specific and timely rulings by learning why summary rulings and delayed rulings each violate your client’s due process rights.  Discuss some of the critical case law and find out how the judges have been ruling on various objections.  Join your peers in a discussion of winning and losing strategies.  It is a lot to cover in an hour – but we will do our best to make it enjoyable (at least far more enjoyable than drafting motions in limine without this great tool).  And we will do our best to answer your questions.\n  \nPLEASE REGISTER via email to: DOROTHY M. STORROW  dstorrow@comcast.net \n(Registration ensures you receive the program materials which will be emailed to you before the training. )

SUMMARY:Working with clients who are deaf and hard of hearing and their families: a presentation by the Massachusetts Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (MCDHH)
DESCRIPTION:n Massachusetts and elsewhere in the United States\, access to the courts and legal services by Deaf and hard of hearing individuals remains problematic. This happens for a variety of reasons – insufficient numbers of legal American Sign Language interpreters\, Certified Deaf Interpreters (CDI) and Communication Access Realtime Translation (CART) providers.\nAdditionally\, knowledge related to the provision of appropriate communication access services remains elusive\, as does the proper implementation of such services across a wide spectrum of legal and social services. \nThis presentation by MCDHH will help you to understand what appropriate communication access is; what cultural\, communicative\, procedural and technical considerations to take into account when working with Deaf and hard of hearing individuals and families\, and how MCDHH staff can work with you to ensure positive outcomes for our constituency.
