“Steve, without knowing you, knowing SEAK, and going to all the conferences that I have attended with your firm for expert witness training, and without your “one-on-one” training, this case would not have ended the way it eventually did. Whenever I get a chance, I recommend SEAK and particularly recommend you and Mr. Mangraviti. In addition, you have really helped in the way you trained my office assistant at the assistants course in Chicago.”
“Thanks again Jim. I have all the business I can handle now, both for defense and plaintiffs. I’ve now reviewed over 130 cases in the past ~ 6 years, in several dozen states. When I’ve been deposed or gone to trial, your advice from your books, and my notes from the live courses, have been invaluable. Many of the tips and attorney tricks and tactics have come up and I’ve felt much more confident responding in an artful way. In fact, often, the attorney tactics that I’ve faced were straight out of one your books.”
“Anyway, thanks to you and Jim. We as a society complain too often when things don’t work and are too quiet when they do so I wanted to let you know.”
“Retaining counsel said based primarily on my report, all 4 cases were settled… Retaining counsel is highly pleased. Your experience and critique of my report was pivotal to this outcome. Thanks again.”
“I wanted to tell you I can’t express how appreciative I am for the help you gave me to prepare for my first deposition. I would have been smeared without your prep and your books really have helped me put out quality professional products. I have had consistent success because my reports are factual, organized and I work very hard to stay away from the pitfalls I learned from you. This really fast tracked me and helped me avoid a lifetime of hard lesions. Not that I won’t have any, but it gave me a great headstart. Thank you so much!”
“I wanted to circle back with you. I finally went on the stand beginning April 1 and carried over to the second day on Friday April 3. With your help I felt very prepared and was able to articulate my opinion very well. The crossing attorney did not seem very strong to me and did not seem as though he really understood what he was asking me, which made it fairly easy. It was a good one to start out with for me but certainly not too challenging. My attorneys felt I did an excellent job up there and controlled the attorney and line of questioning extremely well. I appreciate your beating me up and helping me fine tune my opinion and articulation of such. I will be able to use your methods going forward to help when I have a difficult crossing attorney.” – One-on-One Training Client Prepped for Important Deposition
“I have attended two SEAK conferences in the past year. Since I attended my first SEAK conference, my forensic expert witness business has tripled because of what I learned. I find the SEAK conference(s) to be my best source information and the most important conference that I attend to actually help me improve my product and be able to promote my business.”
I very much enjoyed the training and I am seriously considering attending another SEAK conference soon. It was exactly what I was hoping for in a conference and I am pleased at how much information I walked away with.
I bragged about you guys to an expert witness group last evening. I recommended that they all attend your seminars!
“I wish to express my satisfaction to both Jim and Judge Chernoff for the exceptionally fine presentation this past Friday & Saturday, at FEWA here in Las Vegas. I’ve already changed my profile online and have put the sample report with Jim’s input on file for the next time I write an expert report. I have been providing expert testimony for nineteen years now. Wish I had the advantage of what I learned in two days from Jim & the Judge in all my depositions, trial testimony & reports over all those years. Can’t thank you enough”
