Coral Gables, FL (June 24, 2008) – Michael Haggard, partner at the Coral Gables based Haggard Law Firm, recently attended the National Crime Victim Bar Association annual conference in Washington, D.C. presenting on the topic "Destroying the Defense Security Expert."
This interactive and highly demonstrative presentation showed all that goes into attacking, cross-examining and ultimately destroying the credibility and opinions of the Defense Security Expert. This presentation demonstrated to Premises Liability Trial Lawyers how to never let a trial come down to a "battle of the experts." The presentation began with cumulative research on the Defense Expert, Thorough Deposition Strategies and Ultimately the Trial Cross Examination. The use of Prior Testimony, Similar Fact Patterns and Trap Laying were all discussed using real-life examples, cross exams and demonstrative exhibits used with Defense Security Experts from various trials.
Haggard concentrates his trial practice in personal injury litigation specializing in pool drownings, premises liability, negligent security, wrongful death and medical malpractice. Recently, Michael Haggard was sworn in as the 50th President of the Florida Justice Association. Haggard's other achievements include serving as past president of the Miami-Dade Justice Association as well as serving as a member of the American Association for Justice (Inadequate Security Section) and the Million Dollar Advocates Forum. Haggard earned his bachelors degree from Florida State University and his law degree from the University of Miami.
