Developing and Managing a Litigation Services Practice addresses the needs of both new and experienced litigation services practitioners for an accessible, practical guide to this area. This book is not intended to be a legal casebook or complete treatise on all aspects of the field. Instead, it is a portable, practice-oriented companion that provides field-tested techniques and caveats for establishing, operating, and developing a litigation services practice. The new practitioner will appreciate the information and guidance on: Identifying and developing a litigation services niche from a traditional practice or from scratch; professional standards and the legal environment; and, identifying and refining the technical and personal sills necessary for success.
Both experienced and new practitioners will value this guide for its practical advice on: Staffing and managing a litigation services practice; communicating effectively with your client; preparing for effective depositions; serving as an expert witness; and, common pitfalls experienced by litigation practitioners.
