Appearing in Federal Court poses unique challenges. The rules of the game are different than in other courts, and it’s critical to your client’s success that you present and argue your case powerfully.

From OsgoodePD’s Practical Guide to Federal Court & Practice, the opening statement is a crucial moment in a trial, setting the tone and establishing framework for your strategy. An effective closing argument is also critical, as your last opportunity to convince the trier of fact to return a verdict in your client’s favour. If you’re looking to maximize the impact of your oral advocacy in Federal Court, this is an essential session for you.
