Learn the fundamentals on how to prepare the proper trial notebook to help you become more successful with your trial outcomes.
From the time a lawsuit is filed, facts pour into a law firm like a waterfall. New and experienced paralegals will learn ways to capture and organize these facts as well as retrieve them when needed for depositions, motions and at trial. These materials discuss what can and should go into a trial notebook as well as how to use your computer to organize an electronic trial notebook in OneNote® and how to use a spreadsheet as a simple but quick database to find documents.
