“Constitutional Rights serve both the innocent and the criminal alike. When such rights are wrested from those who are criminally charged, they are also stolen from us.” - Gerry Spence, TLC Co-Founder & Famed Trial Lawyer
Taught by accomplished teams of TLC-trained trial lawyers, behavioral experts, and communications specialists, criminal defense attorneys will learn innovative TLC methods through on-the-feet action methods, not sitting and listening to lectures. You will learn how to win the hearts and minds of your jurors, even against overwhelming odds. Hands-on, small group work on cases will make your newly-learned methods readily accessible in the courtroom. If you want more general information about TLC and our courses, please click here.

“In a jury trial, as in life, great power is born of being a person.” - Gerry Spence, Co-Founder & Famed Trial Lawyer
This comprehensive 3-week program dissects courtroom procedures with painstaking detail to provide hands-on tools toward achieving justice. Trial skills are only part of being a force in the courtroom. The trial lawyers’ power originates from within. Knowledge of oneself gives the lawyer the capability to know others and to connect with each person in the courtroom including the witnesses, the judge, and the jurors. The power of TLC’s methods come alive through creative, spontaneous, outside-the-box innovations that capture juries and move them to justice.
