Summary: One day, one  speaker, one method, leading to career-long advantages.

Rarely can we say that someone “wrote the book” on a subject.  Even more unusual is a book that changes a profession.  In this program both are true.  Larry Pozner has long been recognized as America’s authority on modern cross-examination.  Pozner’s book Cross Examination: Science and Techniques (Lexis 3rd edition 2018, Pozner and Dodd) and his resulting seminar Pozner on Cross: the Chapter Method revolutionized our profession’s view of the purposes and methods of modern cross.

Pozner on Cross: The Chapter Method, is an innovative and highly entertaining program which immerses trial lawyers in the most powerful and modern techniques of drafting and delivering winning cross-examinations. For more than 25 years this ever-evolving seminar has been America’s best-attended trial techniques program. Pozner on Cross: The Chapter Method builds on principles of neuroscience and behavioral psychology to fashion the most reliable and advanced techniques of cross.
