Summary
"This title focuses on the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, including recent amendments to the Rules concerning electronic discovery, expert witnesses, and summary judgment. State counterparts to these rules have been adopted in a majority of jurisdictions, and the pretrial skills considered are essential in both state and federal practice. Coverage also includes client interviewing, the attorney-client relationship, pretrial planning and investigation, pleadings, discovery, pretrial motion practice, and settlement." -- Publisher.
