This podcast series aims to help you as an advocate in courts or tribunals. It is about approaches, guidelines, suggestions. It is not about rules. The content will be helpful because thinking about the issues, how they can be approached, how to ask questions and make submissions, and how to deal with the stress that you, and your witnesses will experience, do not know boundaries of legal system, language, or background.
The topics discussed in the series are listed. The structure of the podcasts is laid out, including the background story of 'Jack and Jill that is used to illustrate the techniques, tips and explanations. The framework within which all court room advocacy - both for preparation and performance - must take place is discussed.
Each episode is about 15 minutes or less.
Depending on your experience and immediate needs you can listen to episodes in any order.
Hopefully what you learn from these episodes will allow you to develop a winning personal style of advocacy .
