The classic advocacy guide for trial lawyers, Common Sense Rules
of Advocacy for Lawyers has been hailed by attorneys, mediators and
professors nationwide. It's the practical advocacy guide designed
for anyone who must persuade others, including attorneys,
lobbyists, negotiators, account executives, law students, sales
professionals, and parents.
"Reading this book would profit any advocate of any experience
level. Judicious application of the advice contained in the book
will make anyone a better advocate."
-- George R. (Bob) Dekle, Legal Skills Professor, University of
Florida, Retired Assistant State Attorney, Third Judicial Circuit
of Florida (successfully prosecuted Ted Bundy)
"Keith Evans, the author of Common Sense Rules of Advocacy for
Lawyers, is an experienced trial lawyer. He has studied the game
from the inside and he has seen things others have missed. He has
distilled his experience and offers it up in the brisk aphoristic
style that brought him his success in the courtroom. The book is a
valuable review for the old timers and an excellent primer for
those who are starting the climb."
-- Jacob A. Stein, Stein, Mitchell & Mezines, Washington,
DC
"This is a terrific guidebook that should be followed by all
young trial lawyers. While it is true that these rules are based
upon common sense and that most seasoned trial lawyers will figure
them out over time, this book will allow young advocates to benefit
from all the painful lessons learned by inexperienced lawyers
before them."
-- Philip H. Corboy, Corboy & Demetrio, Chicago, IL
"Down to earth advice for the advocate. Keith Evans' book
provides important, down-to-earth advice and guidance for both the
novice and experienced advocate. Having adjudicated many, many
cases, I wish every advocate would review these practical rules for
effective advocacy. All advocates will benefit from this helpful
book."
-- Jay Grenig, Arbitrator
"Common Sense Rules of Advocacy for Lawyers is a superb how-to
book for the trial lawyer. The author, Keith Evans, walks the
reader through the essentials of effective trial advocacy, teaching
every step of the way while at the same time never sounding the
slightest bit like a lecturer. The scope of the book -- everything
from what to wear in the courtroom to writing a trial brief -- is
truly impressive, yet the author maintains a tone that is
refreshingly readable. The author never loses sight of the
underlying rules of evidence, procedure, and ethics, but his real
genius is translating those rules into -- as the title says --
common sense rules of advocacy. I wish I had had this book when I
was a young lawyer. I highly recommend it."
-- Karl Tegland, author, "Courtroom Handbook on Washington
Evidence"
"Advocacy is an art as well as a skill, and Keith Evans presents
the rules of mastering that art in a very down to earth manner.
Filled with humor and eminently readable, his book is a great
introduction for the new lawyer and a wonderful learning tool for
the advocate with experience."
-- Sherman L. Cohn, Professor, Georgetown University Law Center
(first national President of American Inns of Court)
"Even the most experienced trial lawyer can pick up some new
techniques here. I will heartily recommend it to my Trial Advocacy
students."
-- Frederick C. Moss, Professor, Dedman School of Law, Southern
Methodist University
