National Institute for Trial Advocacy (NITA)

Loeb & Loeb LLP is pleased to announce that partner Laura McNally will be speaking at the National Institute for Trial Advocacy (NITA) Building Trial Skills: Chicago.

From event website: As a participant in Building Trial Skills, you will use NITA’s learning-by-doing method to practice and perfect your skills in the challenging arts of trial advocacy and persuasion. In a simulated trial setting, you will be performing:

• Opening statements and closing arguments
• Impeachment
• Direct and cross examinations
• Voir dire

Following your live and digitally recorded performances, you will be given feedback and critique from the renowned NITA faculty. There will be a bench trial in the middle of the week and to conclude the program, you will conduct a full jury trial, then have a chance to ask the jurors questions and hear their feedback. You will be able to choose a criminal or civil case file for your performances and trial.

Here's a sample of what recent participants have said:

"Wonderful course. I learned a great deal and cannot wait to apply it to practice."

"I would highly recommend the course to any litigator."

"Brilliant course. Very challenging work load, but it paid off!"
