Terence MacCarthy is synonymous with effective cross-examination. For 40 years he has been the head of the US Federal Defender's Office in Chicago, and is among the top CLE instructors in the US owing to his lectures on cross-examination technique. And now, Terence MacCarthy has literally written the book on cross-examination, "MacCarthy on Cross-Examination". In it, he shares the secret to effective cross-examination that he has perfected over the last 40 years.The primary reason lawyers are more adept in opening and closing statements is that they are able to use the most persuasive technique known - they are allowed to tell a story. This new book shows lawyers how to tell a story in cross-examination, too. They will learn how to manage and effectively minimize witness involvement, without appearing controlling or insulting, and discover how to use effective short statements to make the witness affirm the story the lawyer wants to tell.Filled with illustrative cross-examinations from actual cases, this book can be every trial lawyer's key to employing these proven cross-examination techniques in his or her own practice.
