Employment Law Trials: A Practical Guide, with CD-ROM

Trials in employment cases are different than other types of civil trials. Lawyers can make critical mistakes if they attempt to present an employment case to a judge or jury the same way they would present a personal injury or commercial litigation case.

Kerry E. Notestine draws on his 20 years of trying employment cases, as well as the collective experience of Littler Mendelson's 750 lawyers, to address each phase of a trial. While the book was written from the employer's perspective, all lawyers can learn from his insights.

This book is a practical guide and the first definitive, full-length treatment of how to try employment cases.
