TigarFaculty:Michael TigarArtists understand how to present complex ideas in an easily digestible manner—to focus your attention on the important theme or story within the broader landscape. Michael Tigar summons the works of great painters, poets and philosophers to give you a wealth of inspiration for defining the theory (not theories) of your case.   Witnesses can be fickle … memory too. Combined, they invite confusion at best and they can be a catalyst for catastrophe. Tigar offers practical, courtroom-proven tactics for preparing your witnesses and for preparing yourself to examine — direct and cross — with precision and clarity. Even with a concise theory and precise exposition, the success of your client’s case ultimately lies in the minds of the judge and jurors.

Michael’s observations and instruction will guide you toward successfully bridging the gap. Ethical rules of are of course the basis for professional discipline.  However, they are also guideposts for professional success.
