When you see a hurdle, don't run from it. Run at it, and figure out how to clear it, because every case has a lot of hurdles.
In this episode of Trial Lawyers University, Dan Ambrose is joined by legendary trial lawyer and the defense’s worst nightmare, Keith Mitnick. Keith is a Senior Trial Lawyer for Morgan & Morgan. He has handled many high profile cases and has been interviewed by Mike Wallace on 60 Minutes. Over the years, his list of clients have included judges, elected officials, law firms, and world famous musicians.
Tune in as Dan and Keith discuss the power of framing in persuading the jury, effective strategies for negotiating high-low agreements with defense counsel, how to use the fear you feel during a case to motivate your trial success, and why finding “equilibrium” is key to being a champion trial lawyer. And what’s the one thing that all great trial lawyers focus on in the courtroom? Connection with the jury.
