Have you wondered what techniques and technology are being used in courtrooms around the country? Have you wanted to pick up ideas from some of the best lawyers in the country, but just don't have the time to go sit in courtrooms in Seattle, Atlanta, Houston or New York so that you can watch them in action?

I've had the privilege to do just that. I'm Bob Gerchen, a former actor who now serves as a consultant to trial attorneys across the nation. As a litigation consultant to some of the most venerated names in the trial profession, I've watched some of the best (and unfortunately, some of the worst) lawyers in action all over the country. I combined the wisdom gained from my experience advising, working with and watching these lawyers in court, along with my years onstage and on camera into a must-have book, 101 Quick Courtroom Tips for Busy Lawyers. The book provides ideas designed to help you improve your trial practice, without having to take a load of time studying social science and communication theory. This book gives key information to you, short and straight.
