for Students and Legal Professionals

I’ve spent the last 25+ years helping legal professionals master courtroom advocacy with competence and confidence.

After being called to the Bar in 1993, I quickly saw how much of advocacy training focused on theory, and how little prepared lawyers for the real-world pressure of courtroom advocacy.

The techniques and strategies were often left to chance, or learned the hard way.

I’ve made it my mission to change that.

Whether you're looking to improve your courtroom skills, gain knowledge of legal procedure and substantive law, or receive coaching from a seasoned legal professional, we are here to help.
