All litigators know the value and essential nature of preparation of clients for major litigation events. But preparation work is frequently superficial, inefficient and not sufficiently directed to the client’s fears, anxieties and intellectual capacity. In this CLE course you will learn advanced and cutting-edge techniques to thoroughly prepare your client for deposition, trial and mediation.

The course will cover how to address client anxiety, how to demystify the events themselves so as to make the client more comfortable, the use of video training and mock deposition/trial preparation techniques, and the process by which you can make your client a more effective partner in mediation.
