Remember Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird? Katherine Hepburn in Adams Rib? Tom Cruise in A Few Good Men? What they all had in common was an uncanny ability to captivate the courtroom.

But in real life, many trials quickly devolve into endless paper blizzards and sidebar conferences - and jurors are often bored to tears by the first recess. What techniques do great trial lawyers use to grab and hold the jury’s attention and, ultimately, obtain the desired verdict? Attend this groundbreaking, new online seminar featuring four legends of the Boston trial bar to find out. The program also features a view from the bench from a veteran Superior Court judge, and expert commentary from one of the most popular and engaging moderators, Richard Zielinski.
