The Persuasion Edge for Legal Communication

Since 1984, Eric Oliver has been training small groups of trial attorneys across the country in some of the most effective skills for improving communication and influence available anywhere. If you've participated in one of his sessions, you've seen how the capabilities and techniques he has honed and enhanced, in programs such as The Facts Can't Speak for Themselves and The Mental Edge for Legal Communication, help you to bridge the gap between reason and perception, to balance the verbal with the visual, and even to use persuasive influence with your decision makers that is both conscious and "other than conscious," all with tremendous results.

In the fall of 2010, the American Association for Justice (AAJ) invited Eric to adapt his tried-and-true two-day Mental Edge program to the exacting standards of its trial colleges, incorporating the program's hallmark: small group, hands-on practice sessions in the afternoon to try out each skill demonstrated that morning. That first program, now aptly titled The Persuasion Edge for Legal Communication, was well-received and was presented again by AAJ in November 2011 in Washington, D.C.
