The webinar combined Attorney Jaffe’s career of winning the most difficult kinds of criminal trials with David Ball’s evidence-based research and interviews with jury-eligible citizens. Among other topics, they discussed how most lawyers sabotage themselves, and how to make the best possible use of reasonable doubt.

Michael Hanle and Jonathan Brown of Jaffe, Hanle, Whisonant & Knight, P.C. recently tried a pair of Assault 3rd cases in Birmingham Municipal Court before a specially appointed judge. Prior to beginning trial, Michael Hanle argued a “stand your ground” hearing to the Court. Although the “stand your ground” hearing was ultimately denied by the Court, both clients were found not guilty as a result of the aggressive cross-examination of the alleged victim and his witnesses.
