The Lawyer In Dialogue:

Katherine James · Alan Blumenfeld

Katherine JamesAlan Blumenfeld

This 3-hour workshop is a rare opportunity to explore, expand and hone your live communication questioning skills in a small group setting with the best in the business.

For over 46 years ACT of Communicationtm founders Alan Blumenfeld and Katherine James have brought their unique point of view to helping lawyers be their absolute best in the courtroom. They are actors working in theater, film and television, and the first people to apply the skills of the actor, director and writer to advocacy... and the emotional truth of those arts to witnesses. When AAJ decided to publish their first book on witness preparation, they turned to Katherine who authored the highly acclaimed Harvesting Witness’ Stories (harvestingwitnessstories.com).

Are you connecting with jurors as well as you can in voire dire? Are you and your clients and experts communicating brilliantly with jurors in direct examination at least 90% of the time? When you cross examine witnesses...do the jurors follow you more than them just as consistently?

Over 50,000 lawyers have taken workshops with ACT of Communication. Lawyers have sworn by their witness preparation/direct examination refinement skills as they have faced juries in 3,000 trials. Come and see what all the success is about.

“Katherine has a deep understanding of how to find the human side of damages. Her book packages up all that knowledge and passes it on to all.” Keith Mitnik, Mogan and Morgan Author of Deeper Cuts and Don’t Eat The Bruises
