Getting the Judge to Say, "Yes!"

Seven courses with original techniques to help you win more cases:

  • Thinking Like a Judge
    If we understand what is important to the ultimate arbiter—and what she is trying to do on the bench—we increase our odds of winning. 

  • Gathering Your Best Facts
    Unlike law school and the bar exam, in a practice no one hands us the facts. We have to go out and find them, yet no one teaches us how. As a lawyer and bestselling investigative reporter, Gary shows litigators how to discover what really happened.

  • Opening with Your Own Case
    Ironically, litigators open a brief by presenting the other side’s case, instead of framing it immediately from their client’s perspective. In this course, litigators learn how to enlighten a judge about their client’s case from the first sentence. 

  • Telling the Judge a Story
    Everyone, including judges, loves to hear a story. When litigators learn the secret to telling one, they can use it to help educate and persuade a judge.
     
  • Capturing the Judge's Imagination
    If we know how to choose the right words and arrange them in the right order, we can make our case come alive in the mind of the one who will decide. And when our client’s case lives in the judge’s mind, he is more likely to decide for our client.

  • Building the Bulletproof Argument
    Gary shows litigators how to weave sentences of argument to create a paragraph no one can deny.

Bonus: The 21-Minute Brief
We all need more time. Here’s how to conquer writer’s block and get something on paper you can rapidly improve.

Litigator Checklist
One month after completing Getting the Judge to Say, “Yes!”, you will receive a final twenty-item checklist to guarantee your brief is the most convincing document you can put before a judge.

A colleague told me your class was the best CLE he had ever attended; I would agree. Using your techniques, I recently have won several critical motions.
