Advocacy

In this lecture, one of England's most prominent criminal lawyers, Jonathan Goldberg QC, deals in detail with the principles of advocacy in modern legal practice. Jonathan Goldberg is an "Advocate's Advocate", an experienced and distinguished Queen's Counsel who has appeared in many famous trials. In this unique project, recorded in his chambers in London, he draws upon his wide experience and succinctly provides the listener with the very essence of Advocacy. Mr. Goldberg communicates in a straightforward and practical way. He is thoughtful and thought provoking and and his lecture is laced with humor. Goldberg gives real insight into the art and techniques of persuasion. Goldberg's basic rules of advocacy have until now been notoriously hard to access, but this project captures and explains them in a format designed for attorneys of all skill levels. Even the most experienced trial lawyer will find Goldberg's lecture of value. Amongst the practical topics covered are voice projection techniques, how to stand in court and personal bearing, how to handle a crusty judge, how to project an image of confidence, how to avoid pomposity, how to overcome nerves. Then in great depth, Mr. Goldberg QC explains and illustrates the summit of the Advocate's role, how to cross-examine an opposing witness. Ordinarily, Mr Goldberg's face to face courses would $400 per person. This is an excellent opportunity for attorneys take a look at the principles of Advocacy from one of the top criminal lawyers in the UK.
