A National Lecturer In Personal Injury Law and Trial Strategy
Mr. Elman has developed an extensive knowledge base in personal injury law and trial strategy over three decades in practice. He now passes that knowledge along to other attorneys as a lecturer with The National Academy of Continuing Legal Education, a leader in continuing education for lawyers across 47 states.
Mr. Elman recently taught a course on "Winning Jury Trial Strategies for Soft Tissue Injury in Car Crash" along with Mr. Michael Jensen and Mr. Frederick J. Joseph, III, fellow injury attorneys at Elman Joseph Samples Law Group. It can be especially difficult to secure fair settlements for soft tissue injuries suffered in car accidents. This course provides attorneys detailed information on how to structure arguments and implement the most effective strategies in these types of cases, from jury selection to closing arguments.
