Whether you are a first-time witness or a seasoned veteran of the stand, the fun little "Hip-Pocket Guide to Testifying in Court" will help you to be a more effective, more credible witness. The first (2002) of the author's popular, wallet-sized "Hip-Pocket Guide" series, this book is a MUST for people who testify in court, even once. It originated as an informational letter sent by the Garfinkle, a trial lawyer, to his clients, before hearings, depositions and court appearances. When he discovered that his clients often ignored the letter, Garfinkle repackaged the same essential information into this user-friendly format, which everyone loves to read. Other lawyers have ordered them for their own clients. It is a light-hearted, readable mini-review of the courtroom experience: the dress code, passing gracefully through the metal detector, knowing where to stand and how to speak and when to be quiet. The book is homey. The information is synoptic, not exhaustive. You'll surely pick up a few tips that will improve your credibility and your confidence. Don't be disappointed by its small size and ursory treatment of subjects. That's the point! Hip-Pocket Guides take just minutes to read and fit conveniently into a pocket for easy review. Read this once when you get it, and again in the bus on the way to court or while waiting in a hallway. The book's popularity among law enforcement agencies resulted in the author's writing the acclaimed, "Law Enforcement Officer's Hip-Pocket Guide to Testifying in Court" and the new "Hip-Pocket Guide to Speaking in Public." The author, a trial lawyer and law school Adj. Professor of Persuasion and Advocacy, also penned the popular "Solo Contendere: How to Go Directly from Law School into the Practice of Law Without Getting a Job."
