Details

In the Preface to this new volume, esteemed defence lawyer and author Kyla Lee describes cross-examination as “the most important tool in [her] legal arsenal.” It stands to reason, then, that she has honed her cross-examination skills to such an extent that her approach is as much an art as it is a science, one that she shares in Cross-Examination: The Pinpoint Method.

Innovative. In-depth. Insightful.

Over her years as a criminal defence lawyer, Lee has developed a specific method of conducting a cross-examination that has proven effective time after time. In Cross-Examination: The Pinpoint Method, she uses a series of common scenarios to illustrate how her technique can be used to the benefit of the examiner. In using the metaphor of pins and needles, Lee succeeds in keeping the reader engaged and her content interesting while providing guidance on overcoming the hurdles and challenges that are common in cross-examinations. Topics covered include police witnesses, lay witnesses, expert witnesses, impeachment, proving misconduct, ethics and handling difficult witnesses.

This book will offer valuable direction to trial lawyers who are keen to improve the effectiveness of their cross-examination technique. It will also appeal to judges looking for an interesting read and will be a valuable acquisition for law schools and law libraries.
