The Power of a Good Story: Bringing Narrative Power to the Advocacy of Every Business Dispute

For most of us lawyers, analyzing a legal problem rightly focuses on dissecting the material facts, applying the right law, and reaching a sound, supportable legal conclusion. But it’s never too early in any dispute to start thinking about advocating your position with a story that sells. Whether you are informally making an argument to opposing counsel in a business transaction, seeking technical legal relief from a panel of arbitrators, or delivering a plea for justice to a jury, finding the right story can make the difference between persuasive advocacy and... something else. 

Robinson Bradshaw's panel of trial lawyers will talk about the role that narrative techniques play in the resolution of ordinary and extraordinary legal disputes—with just the right number of war stories thrown in.
