SUMMARY:Pozner on Cross
DESCRIPTION:Save the Date! This training will be offered in-person only and will not be recorded! \nThis dynamic and accessible program introduces advanced methods for recognizing\, structuring\, and delivering effective cross-examinations. Grounded in well-established techniques\, the Chapter Method offers tools that any lawyer—regardless of experience level—can learn quickly and begin applying immediately in shelter hearings\, adjudications\, termination trials\, and other key stages of dependency practice. \nBuilding on principles of neuroscience and behavioral psychology\, Pozner demonstrates how cross-examination functions as a form of storytelling\, and how clear\, purposeful chapters help fact-finders retain and act on the facts that matter most. Using visual examples\, Pozner breaks down each technique step-by-step\, pairing explanations with concise\, practical illustrations drawn from real courtroom scenarios. \nParticipants will learn modern approaches including constructive cross-examination\, which empowers counsel to use opposing witnesses to affirm key aspects of the parent’s case and reduce reliance on direct examination\, and asymmetrical cross-examination\, which replaces the outdated notion that cross is merely a rebuttal with the understanding that it is our opportunity to advance our factual theory decisively and strategically. \nThis polished\, highly engaging seminar equips ORPC practitioners with concrete\, repeatable methods to enhance their advocacy\, strengthen their narrative\, and elevate the representation of parents and families.
