Synopsis

Fact Investigation, the tenth volume in NITA's popular Practical Guide Series, describes different methods and techniques that lawyers can use to best serve their client's legitimate needs and wants during client interviewing, fact investigation, witness interviewing, and counseling. These methods help narrow issues and focus litigation so that the attorney/counselor can gather, produce, and impart "practical wisdom" to his or her clients. The book contains practical learning models tested by successful lawyers and teachers for lawyer planning and decision making.
