Rules of the Road Seminar
October 24-25, 2008 Mirage Las Vegas, Las Vegas, NV

 Fees | Hotel | Register

About The Program

This seminar, based on the acclaimed book Rules of the Road: A Plaintiff Lawyer's Guide to Proving Liability by AAJ members Rick Friedman and Patrick Malone, is essential for plaintiff lawyers who deal with insurance companies that routinely delay and deny meritorious claims.

Learn from the authors and other trial lawyers who have applied the teachings in Rules of the Road as they share their secrets of trying complex cases to a jury--from the pleading through discovery and trial. This program will arm plaintiff lawyers with proven techniques to overcome the complexity, confusion and ambiguity that are the hallmark weapons of most defense strategies. Patrick Malone will be joined by a faculty of highly skilled trial lawyers who will demonstrate the “Rules of the Road” technique in action. David Ball, Ph.D., trial consultant and author of David Ball on Damages: A Plaintiff’s Attorney’s Guide for Personal Injury and Wrongful Death Cases, and David Ball on Damages: The Essential Update, will facilitate the discussion and provide commentary and analysis.

Seminars Available on Audio and Video

As part of AAJ Education’s Convenience Learning offerings, AAJ's Rules of the Road Seminar will be available in high-quality audio or video recordings that are ideal for extended study in your office, home, or when traveling—and may be accepted for MCLE credit in your state.  To pre-order this seminar recording call PlayBack Now, AAJ’s audio and video provider at 800-241-7785.
