Summary: SHOULD BE MANDATORY READING FOR LAW SCHOOL ADVOCACY CLASSES
Review: In my 40 years of trial practice, few books are better organized, or present more useful insights in how to try cases. David Berg has been in the pits, has dozens of verdicts in all kinds of civil and criminal cases-everything from murder to patent infringement-and writes about them very well. Drawing on his experience, David explains the importance, goals, and methods of achieving those goals, for each step of representation, from the first meeting with the client, to the final words of closing argument. And while this isn't one of those "war story" book, he does use examples from his own cases and those of other trial lawyers to make his points. This book is a "must read," not just for aspiring trial lawyers, but for all who want to enhance their skills in the courtroom. It should be mandatory reading for law school advocacy classes.

Summary: It's Never Too Late to Learn
Review: This is a marvelous book for the seasoned and the neophyte trial lawyer alike. Full of astute tips and at once instructive and hilarious anecdotes, this book, by a master of the art, is a must-have for anyone serious about improving his/her skills or just interested in how the really good trial lawyer strategizes every step of every case.

As a trial lawyer of nearly 25 years' experience, I thought I knew all there was to know about all aspects of a complex trial. I was dangerously wrong: reading this book has given me tips I never thought of. Of equal importance, this was a delightful experience, from cover to cover.
