Short Course
What is it really like to cross-examine someone in a courtroom? If you’re representing yourself in court, you might be asking yourself that and wondering how you can make a good job of it. During cross-examination, you will have to prepare the questions very carefully and make sure that they are appropriate and relevant.
When Does Cross-Examination Take Place and Why?
Cross-examination usually occurs during a contested hearing where one party is alleging something that will affect the outcome of the case. By asking questions to obtain further information, the questioner seeks to challenge the other party’s version of the truth. You should prepare for being cross-examined by the other party as well. Cross-examination is one of the most difficult processes in a family case. During the hearing, the judge will hear both sides of the story, examine the available evidence, and decide what happens next. He will then make an order, which is binding upon the parties.
Learn to Prepare Your Cross-Examination Questions and How to Deliver Them
This course will prepare you thoroughly for the process of cross-examining someone in court and being cross-examined. If you’re representing yourself in court, you might be concerned that you’ll jeopardise your case by not doing it properly. These are valid worries and, yes, it’s important to do it properly, but you don’t need legal expertise. This course will give you the right advice and knowledge to enable you to prepare and ask your own cross-examination questions in court, as well as prepare you for being cross-examined.

People I’ve helped take back control say:
“I like how Simon brings clarity to the situation as I can never see the wood for the trees.“
“I needed help with handling a Final Hearing, particularly the fact finding and cross examination elements. I had previously liaised with Simon on how to put together a Position Statement, so his online courses were my first port of call. Once I had completed the lessons, I felt prepared and confident.”
“Simon’s advice has proven invaluable.”
