Tips & Tactics The Lawyer’s Little Red Toolbox … #2
This week we offer a few more warning tips about the little red toolbox
of tricks and traps lawyers use to throw you off track and put you at a
disadvantage.
To learn more about protecting yourself from lawyers, get our complete
Jurisdictionary 24-hour step-by-step self-help course.
Conversational Style: Winning lawsuits requires you to use words
precisely to get certain facts (and only those facts) into the court’s
record. Lawyers will try to get witnesses (including you, if you are
called as a witness in court or at a deposition) to forget what’s
important and, instead of concentrating only on the vital facts, get
into a “conversation” with the lawyer. Never do it! The lawyer wants to
get things off track, to confuse the court with useless information, or
to make the court believe there is more to the case than there truly
is. It’s hard enough to win a case without being required to argue
about facts that can have no bearing on the outcome. Yet, that’s just
what lawyers often do. When you are being questioned, answer as if you
can see the words you say being typed onto a page for the appellate
court to read, if you have to appeal. Speak slowly. Thoughtfully.
Always count 1-2-3 before answering any question. Think about the
answer and its effect on the record. And teach your witnesses to do the
same! (More about this in our 24-hour self-help course.)
Court Reporters: There is nothing - absolutely nothing - more important
than “making a record” of everything that takes place in a court
proceeding. When you go to court without a court reporter to transcribe
the proceedings, you open the door for the judge to do whatever he or
she feels like doing - because the judge knows that without a
transcript record there can be no appeal. Judges fear the record!
Judges cannot be judged without one. We emphasize this in our 24-hour
self-help course. NEVER go to a hearing or trial unless you are CERTAIN
the proceedings will be transcribed AND that you will be able to get a
certified transcript if the judge allows errors that hurt your case! If
the lawyer on the other side assures you that a court reporter has been
hired, DO NOT TRUST HIM OR HER TO BE TELLING THE TRUTH. Ask to know the
name of the court reporter and MAKE CERTAIN they will attend.
Otherwise, hire your own court reporter! Remember: You don’t always
need a transcript, but if you need one and don’t have it, you’re busted!
Citing Cases: More often than you might believe, lawyers cite cases
without reading them! Lazy lawyers typically read only the “headnotes”
that are added by editorial staff, without taking time to read the
official opinions of the appellate court. Don’t make this mistake! A
few years ago opposing counsel filed a memorandum citing more than
three-dozen cases none of which applied to the facts! If I hadn’t taken
time to read those cases to see what the appellate justices actually
said, the lawyers on the other side would have prevailed with their
ruse! Never assume the judge will read the cases cited by your
opponent. Read the cases! Visit the following link to see the
highlighted headnotes of an important case. The highlighted “headnotes”
are not official and do not control the trial judge in any way! Read
all your cases and all their cases, so you can argue effectively and
win your lawsuit!
