By choosing not to fail, you are seeing yourself as a trial lawyer. You have resolved to stand up for those whose light shines dim and whose voice is heard small. It is now time to get your head in the game. The ultimate goal in any trial is to win. You win by telling your client's story in such a way that it compels the jury to see and understand it and believe in it the same way you do. You accomplish that by establishing your credibility with the jury -- by loving your client, telling the truth and being real"--

Download or read book Secrets of Criminal Defense written by Burton Milward Jr. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-04-26 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you accused of a crime? Are you incarcerated? Are you close to someone who is? Are you a law student? (You won't find this information in law school!) Are you a practicing attorney who wants to be certain to excel in the arena of criminal defense? The secrets in this book serve as a guiding light to achieving Total Victory in the courtroom. An excellent criminal defense attorney's goal is Total Victory which means dismissal of all charges prior to trial, acquittal at trial, or reversal on appeal with directions to dismiss. A plea bargain is not Total Victory, nor can any form of win-win negotiating be Total Victory. Why should the prosecutor get anything? Every criminal case presents potential opportunities for Total Victory. An excellent criminal defense attorney knows how to transform these opportunities into actual dismissal or acquittal. When a lawyer is 100% for the client and stands up for the client to the nth degree, each secret of criminal defense is crucial. Just as a chain is no stronger than its weakest link, an excellent criminal defense attorney knows how to maximize representation in every case, never allowing a weak link. Those criminal defense attorneys who deserve the word excellent work to Win! They do everything they can think of within the law and the rules to win, and they win because they are knowledgeable and experienced with the tools and techniques and state of mind set forth in this book. Written in a clean, clear style, its also a most enjoyable read!

Download or read book In Defense of Youth written by William Vaughn Stapleton and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 1972-11-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years the decisions of the United States Supreme Court in the area of juvenile law and the growing public awareness of the delinquency problem have brought about drastic changes in American juvenile courts. This book represents a major research effort to determine the effect of defense counsel's performance on the conduct and outcome of delinquency cases. After a brief historical analysis of the factors leading to changes in juvenile law, the authors explore in detail the impact of the lawyer's presence and performance on the outcomes of cases in two juvenile courts. The analysis further explores the various factors influencing a lawyer's defense posture and develops the thesis that the effectiveness of counsel is determined largely by the structure of the delinquency hearing and the willingness and ability of court personnel and procedures to adapt to the introduction of an adversarial role of defense counsel. What makes this study unique is the large-scale effort to combine legal analysis and sociological methodology to the study of an action-oriented program. The use of the classical experimental design, the selection of control and experimental groups by random assignment, and the extent to which the use of this methodology increases the validity of the results, will be of interest to both lawyers and social scientists. The book is a major contribution to the growing literature in the field of the sociology of law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a seasoned criminal defense attorney, Defense Investigation and Discovery in Criminal Cases shares trial-tested investigation and discovery methods. The book combines an exploration of theoretical and jurisprudential concepts that govern a defendant's right to obtain information from the prosecutor with practical advice on integrating discovery information into an effective defense. This book examines the history of discovery in criminal cases, including the defendant's due process right recognized in Brady and its progeny, while exploring constitutional, statutory, and rule-based arguments to compel the government to provide discovery to defendants. The author includes a fifty-state survey on discovery rules and statutes that identifies the trend toward more liberal discovery and provides tools for defense counsel in jurisdictions where discovery is limited. Additionally, this essential title highlights innovative ways that defense counsel can get the information they need outside of the traditional discovery process and lays out ethical standards for professional conduct as it relates to the right of discovery. The author provides "use it today" sample motions that any criminal defense attorney will appreciate. A perfect combination of theoretical and practical, Defense Investigation and Discovery in Criminal Cases is an invaluable resource for criminal defense attorneys. Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents new research and thinking about the role of the defense counsel in the American criminal justice system.

Original essays explore such issues as performance measurement to ensure proper counsel, the differences between public and private defenders, and the dwindling number of private defense counsels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Anyone who cares about capital punishment should read this compelling, lucid account of the obstacles defense attorneys face and the strategies they adopt." --John Parry, University of Pittsburgh School of Law "With its compelling narratives of cases, strategies, and ethical dilemmas, Litigating in the Shadow of Death is difficult to put down. . . . This pathbreaking book encapsulates the experience of the most respected capital defenders in America and shows how they save even the worst of the worst from execution. It also shows how sleeping and otherwise incompetent lawyers bring death sentences to their clients. Litigating in the Shadow of Death explores the lawyers' tasks at every stage of the criminal process--investigation, client interviewing, conferring with victims' families, plea bargaining, trial, appeal, and post-conviction proceedings." --Albert W. Alschuler, Julius Kreeger Professor of Law and Criminology, University of Chicago "A unique and profoundly important contribution to the literature on the death penalty. White allows the leading capital defense attorneys to speak in their own voices. His work reveals a new source of arbitrariness in the death system--whether the penalty is imposed turns more on who is your lawyer than on how evil was your deed or your character. Litigating in the Shadow of Death offers concrete guidelines for better lawyering, protection of the innocent, and understanding the artistry of the best capital attorneys. This is vivid, gripping stuff." --Andrew Taslitz, Professor of Law, Howard University "A most illuminating book by a splendid writer and an eminent critic of the capital punishment system." --Yale Kamisar, Professor of Law, University of San Diego "Welsh White has written another excellent book on the death penalty--this one on how defense attorneys in capital cases successfully prevent the state from executing their clients. Based on original research, Litigating in the Shadow of Death is informative and insightful. This is a book that all serious students of American capital punishment must read." --Richard Leo, University of California, Irvine Welsh S.

Download or read book Techniques in the Defense of a Federal Criminal Case written by Jay Goldberg and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preparation and Trial of a Federal Criminal Case will be valuable not only to the experienced federal criminal practitioner, but will be of greater importance to the lawyer engaged in general practice. This book provides case authority, necessary forms, ways to maximize discovery, and techniques one should make use of in order to position his client so that he can obtain an acquittal. The task of trying a criminal case is extremely complicated. Cases are tried in wonderful settings, but the off putting fact is that prosecutors are given a preference; their word means more than that of defense counsel. One need only read Justice White's opinion (dissenting and concurring) in United States v. Wade, 388 U.S. 218, at 250 (1967) and compare it with Justice Sutherland's opinion in Berger v. United States, 295 U.S. 78, at 88 (1935) to see how judges and even juries according to Justice Sutherland expect that the prosecutor will only proceed against those who are guilty. One who undertakes the trial of a criminal case thus has great responsibility: to know the law in order to protect the record, to know techniques to be effective at trial, and to have the necessary skill to make the best opening, conduct direct and effective cross examination, how to deal with the judge, and to give a winning summation. A combination of your skills as a trial lawyer in general practice and use of the techniques discussed in this book will enable you to expand your practice into the field of trying federal criminal cases.

Download or read book Privilege and Punishment written by Matthew Clair and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-06-21 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the attorney-client relationship favors the privileged in criminal court—and denies justice to the poor and to working-class people of color The number of Americans arrested, brought to court, and incarcerated has skyrocketed in recent decades. Criminal defendants come from all races and economic walks of life, but they experience punishment in vastly different ways. Privilege and Punishment examines how racial and class inequalities are embedded in the attorney-client relationship, providing a devastating portrait of inequality and injustice within and beyond the criminal courts. Matthew Clair conducted extensive fieldwork in the Boston court system, attending criminal hearings and interviewing defendants, lawyers, judges, police officers, and probation officers. In this eye-opening book, he uncovers how privilege and inequality play out in criminal court interactions. When disadvantaged defendants try to learn their legal rights and advocate for themselves, lawyers and judges often silence, coerce, and punish them. Privileged defendants, who are more likely to trust their defense attorneys, delegate authority to their lawyers, defer to judges, and are rewarded for their compliance. Clair shows how attempts to exercise legal rights often backfire on the poor and on working-class people of color, and how effective legal representation alone is no guarantee of justice. Superbly written and powerfully argued, Privilege and Punishment draws needed attention to the injustices that are perpetuated by the attorney-client relationship in today’s criminal courts, and describes the reforms needed to correct them.

Download or read book Pretrial Advocacy written by NITA and published by Aspen Publishing. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ninety percent of all civil cases never make it the jury; they are resolved through a pretrial process that is today the unsung forum for dispute resolution. Rather than teaching lawyers to abandon evidence and trial skills, Pretrial Advocacy does the opposite; it teaches lawyers that modern litigation is “front loaded” and cases must be prepared with the assumption that they will be tried. As the authors note, it is the rigor of the pretrial process that drives resolution. From the first client interview through motions practice, you will learn to effectively evaluate cases, draft complaints, conduct informal and formal discovery, prepare and respond to motions, negotiate with opposing counsel, and, if necessary, be ready for trial. Pretrial Advocacy is the ideal textbook for law school clinics, law school pretrial litigation courses, and practicing lawyers. Both practical and theoretical, it teaches litigation as a process informed by rules and cases, but also by strategic considerations. Its hands-on and accessible text makes it a perfect reference for learning skills and a continuing reference. Professors and students will benefit from: Practical guidance for each step of representation, backed up by citations and references for deeper understanding of each topic An accessible writing style that puts the needed information right at the reader’s fingertips Tips to foster the attorney’s relationships with clients, opposing counsel, and the court
