Worst Cross Examination Ever

http://www.oginski-law.com

I was in court last week and had an opportunity to watch an experienced trial lawyer cross-examine an expert doctor on the witness stand. I was shocked to see the worst cross examination ever in my 21 years of practice.

The attorney could barely formulate a question. He asked open-ended questions, allowing the expert to explain away most answers.

The lawyer violated every rule of cross examination and gave up total control of this witness. I actually felt bad sitting in court watching this spectacle. Watch the video to learn why.

@RdTrler I'm glad I was able to help!

I'm no lawyer and I probably will never become a lawyer.

But this gives me a lot of help on how to ask people questions. Not for the intent of prosecution but to keep things clean, concise, and most importantly, understandable.
