Tigar’s cross-examinations of key witnesses in high-profile cases have been on the front page of major newspapers. In these talks, he sets out a theory of cross-examination that takes you beyond the “ordinary” rules.

He provides step-by-step ideas on how to cross-examine without being cross and without stirring up unnecessary animosity.
