Advocacy skills can be crucial in shaping the outcome of a case. Effective cross-examination, expert persuasion and asking the right questions to the right expert witness have been enough to determine the outcome of numerous finely-balanced cases.

Whether you work in civil or criminal law, are newly qualified or looking to make the move to solicitor advocate, this conference will have something for you.

Throughout the day, experts with years of experience in courtroom practice will be on hand to share their knowledge on a variety of areas including cross-examination techniques, pre-trial strategies and working with expert and vulnerable witnesses.

Featuring Ampersand’s Lauren Sutherland QC on “Using statements and discrediting witnesses“.

Full programme and how to book can be found on the Law Society of Scotland’s website here.
