Direct & cross examinations
Voir Dire
Persuasion skills: thinking on your feet
Motions practice
Case strategy

Following your live and videotaped performances you will be given feedback and critique from the renowned NITA faculty. To conclude the program you will execute a full jury trial, once as counsel and once as a witness, gaining a better understanding of jury psychology by watch the jury deliberate via closed circuit TV, and then hear the jurors' critique.
