“WHAT IS THE POINT OF HANDLING A CASE FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND THEN FAILING TO PRESENT IT WELL TO THE COURT?”
This may be one of the few blogs that has a category “Trial Bundles”, with dozens of posts on this topic. It remains one of the most searched and read subjects on this site. Here I am revisiting a useful link from a now quiescent blog by Legal Orange. Legal Orange has not written on their blog for several years. It was explained in a post that they had moved (to Scotland I think) and now had a major caseload. However, from 2013 – 2015 they used to post much sage wisdom on their blog. Here we go to a post in 2014 and their post on trial bundles.
LEGAL ORANGE: MAKE YOU BUNDLE A PEELING…
LEGAL ORANGE The post can be found at http://legalorange.wordpress.com/2014/01/11/trial-bundles/ I would urge everyone to read it for themselves. The highlights, for me, are:
- “What is the point of handling a claim for a couple of years and then failing to present it well to the court? You are selling yourself short and doing a disservice to your client”
- “Trial bundles are important”.
- “Being a civil litigator often means you do not need to know too much about ”the law” but it is vital that you are an expert in procedure.”
