Modern Trial Advocacy: Canada

Adapted for Canada by Goodmans Partner Julie Rosenthal, and Goodmans alumni Cynthia Tape, Modern Trial Advocacy: Canada is the first and last word in Canadian trial practice.

This classic handbook, published by the National Institute for Trial Advocacy in August 2019, gives practitioners a detailed road map for conducting a trial.

Modern Trial Advocacy: Canada has been updated with current citations to case law, statutes, and rules and the latest "best practices" for using technology in the courtroom.
