WIN YOUR CASE

The courthouse adage goes "the lawyer who tells the best stories wins." Reader Marc Cashman dispenses the knowledge and wisdom of America's winningest trial lawyer, Gerry Spence, with a steady pace, clear intonation, and a soothing tone. And while lawyers will find the book both informative and instructional, it's lay people who use storytelling to persuade clients or higher-ups who will also benefit from the homespun tales of a practicing attorney. Spence tells how he won some of his most famous cases and how he gave hope to "regular" people by helping them deal with the frustrations of a legal system stacked in favor of business and government.
