Mastery of litigation skills is the hallmark of both the American College of Trial Lawyers and Temple’s Advocacy Program. This 4 hour CLE, with one ethics credit and three substantive credits, will teach advanced advocacy skills. Skills covered will include courtroom advocacy; learning from and avoiding mistakes; ethical problems and responses; and integrating evidence law and advocacy, particularly surrounding expert witnesses. This is the sixth of what is an annual collaboration between the ACTL and Temple Advocacy.  This Masters of Litigation event will be hosted in-person in Klein Hall, Room K2B on Temple Law’s campus, or there is an option to attend online via Zoom.
