Testimonials
“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.”
As a Contractor, I know that to do a great job you need to possess the proper tools. SEAK provides the Expert Witness with the tools needed to perform with confidence and poise. I would strongly recommend SEAK training courses to any Expert Witness interested in being the very best in their field.
“In recognition of your outstanding assistance to the FBI in connection with its investigative efforts. Your cooperation was of immeasurable help to our representatives. I share their gratitude for your support, which assisted them in carrying out their responsibilities. You can take pride in the role you played in the success achieved, and my associates and I congratulate you on a job well done.” – Robert S. Mueller, III, Director, Federal Bureau of Investigation
I thoroughly enjoyed the training and found it extremely helpful. The faculty was very informative and kept me interested and entertained. Looking forward to more training in the future. Thank you for your efforts.
I was in a trial the other day and an attorney asked, “Ms. [Smith], do you wish you had more time to work on Mr. XXs Life Care Plan?” I smiled and thought of you because you gave this example in one of your programs. I sat back and said – “Sure, I always like to spend more time with my patients and their families”…no follow up questions. Thanks for the guidance.
Your conference I attended last year just helped me make a jury realize they needed to find that a Family Physician was not responsible for a patient’s death. I rocked at trial. Thank You.
“The best preparation for cross examination as a testifying expert witness I have found is SEAK’s DVD by Mangraviti “The Most Difficult Questions for Experts.” I review it prior to each court appearance. “
“I attended your recent advanced training in Florida. I testified yesterday in court, the first such testimony since the training. It was a huge success as I felt for the first time, completely comfortable with my opinion, my report and my testimony. I have been doing expert witness work for quite some time, but have only started testifying more in recent years. I have observed others, completed various trainings and as you know there is a steep learning curve in this area, so have learned from every experience—good and especially, bad. Your class though was the “tipping point” in terms of me finally understanding and being able to implement testifying skills, starting with a completely reasoned opinion and ending with educating the court, remaining calm and speaking clearly and directly. I especially learned from watching all the witnesses get grilled at your training—seeing what experts look like when they can’t give a straight answer or are defensive really was instructive and eye opening. There were many take aways from the class but I especially liked Jim’s quote from The Art of War—he who is strong everywhere, is strong nowhere. I was able to give where I needed to and stand firm, where I wouldn’t. The other side should send their expert to your training…”
“I was just an expert witness at the Conrad Murray trial last week. You can check out my videos on youtube if you are extremely bored. According to commentary I did pretty well. This was my first time in court! I have to thank you for your book “How to become a Dangerous Expert Witness” as I used it like the bible in my preparation. I just wanted to thank you for writing that book.”
I found the training excellent. I do training, so I know the standard! I am sure that if I follow all the practices and tips covered over the 2 days, my practice will flourish.
