Probate Family Trial Practice
Hon. Edward M. Ginsburg (Ret.),
2 credits day; 2 credits evening.
The Probate Trial Practice course is designed on the model established by the National Institute
of Trial Advocacy to teach trial practice. The course follows the outline which is used annually
in teaching the MCLE week long course on family law advocacy. The emphasis is on getting
each student to perform as much as possible.<p> Each student begins with an uncontested
motion, followed by a contested motion, followed by opening statements, and the direct and
cross examination of parties and experts. Each week an experienced family law trial attorney
critiques the students.
