About the Seminar:

Shane Read began his career at the law firm Akin Gump then spent 30 years as a civil and criminal Assistant United States Attorney during which time he tried hundreds of cases. He is the author of award-winning and bestselling textbooks on persuasion, deposition, and trial skills. He is a graduate of Yale University, the University of Texas School of Law, and serves as an adjunct professor at S.M.U.’s Dedman School of Law. 

After his first trial after law school, he realized almost everything he had been taught about persuasion in a courtroom was wrong. He was determined to figure out what worked and spent every spare moment watching trials. He saw a lot of lawyers making the same mistakes that he had made, but a few great trial lawyers were doing something completely different. The great lawyers he studied followed a common set of principles of persuasion that led to success. The excitement he felt when he witnessed these principles being executed in high-stakes cases and then in his own trials made him want to share this knowledge with others.  

Come join your colleagues on Friday, February 16 and learn the secrets of persuasion that have transformed Shane’s career and can transform yours also!
