An article about Trial Lawyering Skills from Lawyerist.com begins like this --
For better or for worse, trial advocacy and trial skills aren’t refined in law school. They’re tools forged in the crucible of hand-to-hand combat deep in the litigation trenches. And for many, the transition from studying law to practicing it requires that you develop some very basic litigation skills regardless of practice area.
The article goes on to list a number of great resources, including some articles that I was paid to write for Lawyerist a few years ago, as follows --
5 Questions to Ask Before Taking a Deposition
How to Take a Deposition Like a Pro
Anatomy of a Good Deposition Question
And here's another good one I wrote for Lawyerist, arguably unrelated to Trial Lawyering Skills: "Write Better Legal Documents with an Editing Checklist."
