About the Program
Professors Rossi and Altschuler will draw on four fascinating trials - Leopold and Loeb, the Alger Hiss case, the trial of Dan White, and The People v. O.J. Simpson - to illuminate fundamental principles of trial advocacy and demonstrate that great courtroom stories should be "deliciously brief, immediately memorable, eminently repeatable, and virtually impossible to dismiss." These principles can be used by trial lawyers to arouse in judges and juries a sense that justice will and must be served by a decision that favors their client.
