Jesse Lanier is our Latest Featured Speaker!

Our latest featured speaker is Jesse Lanier of Conrad | Metlitzky | Kane LLP!

Jesse is co-teaching Motions for Summary Judgment at our upcoming 19th Annual Superior Court Boot Camp: The Nuts and Bolts program in two weeks, on September 24 & 26, 2024 (Jesse is speaking on September 26th).

This dynamic and information-packed program teaches attorneys all about litigating in California State Court. It also teaches attorneys what they need to know to be a successful litigator in any court. The program covers a case in state court from the start until right before trial (we now have a separate Trial Training program in the works for February of 2025). Topics include everything from developing case themes, to CMCs, complex case scheduling, discovery, depos, and motions moving on through to pre-trial tasks.

You can sign up to attend live or pre-order OnDemand Streaming or a recorded package here.  

Jesse most recently taught Witness Preparation at our Mastering the Deposition 101: The Nuts and Bolts (CA) program in August, which is still available for purchase of the OnDemand Streaming or a Recorded package here. This program will help you understand how to create a strategic plan for your depositions, how to prepare your lay and expert witnesses, and how to take and defense depositions effectively without fail. Jesse’s positive reviews by our attendees are just one highlight of this popular program.
