witness preparation

At the Winning Litigator®, we specialize in working with “problem” witnesses. “What’s a ‘problem’ witness?” you ask. It’s any witness with any kind of behavior or trait that poses a threat to the witness’ ability to communicate effectively with the judge or jury.

Some witnesses become too emotional, some talk too much, some are too quiet, some come off as angry . . . or distant . . . or evasive . . . or untruthful. Whatever the witness issue is, we’ve seen it and handled it before.

Often witnesses and attorneys fail to communicate because of clashes in thinking and learning styles. We can assist you in getting through to your problem witness, and in developing a strategy to help that witness support and enhance — rather than detract from — your case.
