Program Description:

It’s never fun to lose, and trying to steal victory from the jaws of defeat can be a risky proposition. Though post-trial motions remain critical to correcting errors and positioning your case for appeal, if they are misused they can take your case from bad to worse. In this session, we’ll review the common forms of post-decisions motions, the best uses of each, their necessity (or not) for keeping issues alive on appeal, common mistakes lawyers make in post-trial motions, as well as tips and tricks for how to most effectively and strategically deploy these motions in your practice.
