No trial lawyer learns in a vacuum. To whatever extent the several editions

of this book contain wisdom of value, it is wisdom learned from the large

number of extraordinary lawyers, clients, and others I have been privileged

to work with in over 25 years as a trial lawyer. Most of the examples in the

book are from real cases—some involving these individuals—but they may

have been modied slightly for simplicity. My apologies to those involved

for anything I may have missed or mistaken.

Any attempt to list all those to whom I owe my gratitude would be a

fruitless exercise—an absurdly long list that would inevitably miss impor-

tant people. However, at the risk of offending others, I do want to thank a

few of those most directly involved in this book, including:

•

The partners, associates, and staff at Holland & Knight, for their

patience and support.

•

My wife, Alix, and our children, Bailey, Schuyler, and Gabrielle, for

pushing me to write and for offering the love and sacrices that allowed

me to do it.
