Testimonials
“Thanks for all your great educational material and conferences. It has paid for my kids to go to college.”
“I had 8 cases generated from my SEAK Directory listing last year and one already this year. Thanks to your ‘fine’ reputation, I am ‘tap dancing’ with legal cases. Thank you Alex. Should you need a reference to other experts, let me know.”
Thank you again ever so much for your prep on the recent case – the lawyer thinks I’m brilliant and I owe you tremendous credit for that!
“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.”
“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.”
I just attended your How to Start, Build and Run a Successful Expert Witness Practice in Mission Bay. It was one of the best and most valuable seminars that I have ever attended. After 45-years of CPA practice, that is a lot of seminars. I have been involved in expert witness cases for only two years (two trial testimonies and 1 arbitration settlement). You identified a lot of mistakes that I have been making so I am grateful to have learned this before I am run out of the business before it gets going. I signed up for your directory, purchased your Retention Agreement Program and, previously purchased the A-Z Guide. After I delve into building my expert witness business some more, I may seek your assistance in improving and marketing my business. Thank you, Nadine and Dr. Baker for a job well done.
“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 am working on a Federal case and wanted to thank you and all the folks @SEAK for the knowledge gained in your course. I am working w/ several Ass’t US attorneys (AUSAs) that I have worked with in the past and they have noticed the difference. I am scheduled to be deposed tomorrow at the AUSAs’ office – not mine, I told them! They held a mock “grilling” on Friday and the conclusion was, “We beat you severely about the ‘head and face’, much worse than the plaintiff’s attorney will and you handled it just fine!” As the questions came, I continually remembered the principles SEAK taught – hear the whole question, make sure you understand it, answer only that question, answer only what you’re an expert in, etc. We’ll see how I do tom’w during the real thing. So I thought it would only be right to thank your group for the lessons learned. (Yes, you may use this in a “promo’).”
This session, as every has been exemplary in shortening the learning curve and evening the playing field in a very challenging arena. Right away I did a thorough re-write of my agreement document and built in many of the items from 136-140. I can’t think of what does more for peace of mind than signaling quality case handling, from the very beginning.
“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.”
