We return this week to talk about pretrial practice with special guests Professor Alex Tanford, Professor Emeritus of Law from Indiana University's Maurer School of Law, and Professor Layne Keele, an Associate Professor of Law at Samford University's Cumberland School of Law. These two guests bring so much to the lounge, including stories and experience about the practice of law, notes for students and new attorneys for different stages of pretrial, and ideas for faculty on teaching pretrial process in law schools. Along with host Krystal Norton, these guests define pretrial stages of a case, give tips for interviewing clients, share ideas for handling depositions and motions, and discuss the impact of AI and the pandemic on civil cases. It is a big conversation with so many great points, we hope you enjoy!
