“I have attended a significant number of continuing education courses over the years and I am hard pressed to remember any that were as informative as “How to Start, Build and Run a Successful Expert Witness Practice.” As you suggested, I am strongly encouraging the physician(s), I am to be working with, to attend one of your seminars. I look forward to attending another one myself. Thank you for your assistance.”
I truly thank you for the services that you are providing; it has allowed me to more quickly and thoroughly understand the legal system within which I am now working. The school of hard knocks got a lot cheaper.
I would like to sincerely thank you for all that you have done to help improve my professional presence in the courtroom, to be more confident while testifying, and to actually enjoy doing it.
“If a 3-pointer in basketball goes “swish,” what sound does trial testimony make when opposing counsel sputters and gets sarcastic? [Case] trial testimony went very strongly. Opposing made no headway, frustrated. After the cross-exam, neither counsel had further questions. A juror submitted a paper with questions to the judge. Both counsel approach and whisper with the judge for 10-minutes, I’m still on the stand. Then the judge dismisses counsel, turns to me and asks 3 open-ended questions that I respond to with detailed teaching explanations. Opposing kept objecting, judge said he wanted the jurors to hear the answers. Thank you both for sharing your expertise to make this type of day possible.”
“I hate to tell you this but I have had several calls after the directory issued. I guess your methods work. You are the only company that has provided any contacts as a result of a program like yours.”
I recently had a depo in Florida and it went so well that the lawyer thought I had been doing them for years. I told him no, just good training from SEAK.
“Jim, I just finished trial testimony as an expert witness in Minneapolis. The attorneys and client were quite pleased and impressed and I realized how much of my performance today was guided and informed by the principles and ideals I was taught by SEAK. My forensics interest is growing (I may actually need to refuse some reviews soon due to overload) and I believe that you and your colleagues (but especially you) had a big part in that growth – both in my training as well as that of my wife Jill who acts as my assistant.”
“I must tell you the SEAK seminars on expert witness were excellent. The information obtained has already been put to good use in my office. Attorney Jim Mangraviti, Dr. Baker, and the Judge were excellent instructors. A real eye opener.”
“I appreciate all you do. The listing has brought many interesting cases. However, the education you have provided is more important and has made being involved with expert work much more powerful. Being prepared is the key. Thanks.”
“Thank you for your time today. I found it very helpful. I actually have been going back through my file again and found the answers to many of the issues you raised. I have attached my revised CV based on your excellent review. I have had many people look at the version I gave you, including looking it over several times myself, I am amazed at the things you found and am very grateful for your keen eye. You are clearly very good at what you do.”—One-on-One Training Client Prepped for Important Deposition
