A clear and complete court record is the cornerstone of effective advocacy and successful appeals.

Join NDAA’s Trial Advocacy Academy 101 Series on October 28, 2026, for a webinar focused on practical strategies to ensure your record is accurate, persuasive, and appellate-ready.

In this session, you will learn:

  • Why a strong record is essential for trial and appellate review
  • Common mistakes—and how to avoid them
  • Techniques for preserving objections, rulings, and evidence
  • Best practices for creating a record that withstands appellate scrutiny

Don’t miss this chance to strengthen your skills and build confidence in one of the most critical aspects of trial advocacy.
