The Attorney Case File

Many cases involve an investigation. If you rely on in-house staff, this workbook is their "investigation in a box."

The Investigation Workbook provides a complete "investigation in a box" to either assist your in-house staff with the details of a thorough investigation or to help you set specific parameters for outside vendors.

Just as The Attorney Case File overall is set to work virtually any type of case, its Investigation Workbook portion is capable of working any type of investigation.

The highly detailed tools in this component are the result of years of experience from professional investigators. These tools provide the framework and content necessary to launch an investigation starting with case and client background, through witness interview and affidavit tools, surveillance reports, witness locates, crime scene analysis, business asset and due diligence, and much, much, more.

Some of the many sections and forms contained in this workbook are:

For samples of these forms get "Case Management 101", a free ebook for investigators. It's part of the Investigation Workbook.

You'll need Adobe Acrobat Reader® to read this ebook. You can download Adobe for free at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html.

The case workbook acts as the central coordinator for all data related to the case and the client.

This section helps you track all client background information and documentation; game planning, theory, and "to do lists;" opposing client and counsel data; background and discovery; witnesses, interrogatories, and depositions; case law and statutory law research; time and expense billing; communication and correspondence; filings, motions, pleadings, and inter-office communication; clerical activity and case conclusion checklists; and more.

For the newcomer to the legal profession, this workbook provides an entire case in a fill-in-the-blank checklist that helps you display your professionalism to the client, makes you more efficient and prevents you from missing important detail.

For the seasoned veteran, this workbook provides an organized template to record the details you know to go after. It makes it much, much easier to delegate important assignments to those working with you and under you and it saves you valuable billable hours every time you use it.

The Trial Notebook will help make your day in court a success.

This simple to use and highly detailed tool will save you hours upon hours of work (and headache) in preparation for a court appearance, whether you have a simple hearing or a full jury trial. This notebook alone is worth the price of the entire package.

This notebook focuses on the trial-specific nature of your case and helps you organize its presentation and all your other court-related material such as legal research, discovery materials, jury selection notes, court journals, opening and closing statements and more. This component will help set you up for success whether you're entering a criminal or civil court, or whether you represent the plaintiff, prosecution or defense.

Though not all cases wind up in court, this is one tool that is much better to have and not need than to need and not have. Therefore, it's an integral component of this system. (Remember, the Trial Notebook, just like the other workbooks in this system, has unlimited usage. It's yours forever, once you buy the complete package.)
