TLC Podcast Episode 74: Rafe Foreman on Trial Skills Foundation Training at the Trial Lawyers College
In this week’s podcast, host Rafe Foreman takes you on a journey through the essential TLC Trial Skills, from voir dire through to closing argument. Gain insights on how best to integrate TLC’s groundbreaking methods into your case as Rafe describes the how and why of the various skills and methods.
Listen as Rafe takes two jurors on a carefully guided path toward cause. Learn from the wisdom of Helen Simotas as her quote about “seeing” brings light and understanding to this program. Feel the tension between inclusion and exclusion, and carve your own path up that steep grade. Engage yourself on a deeper level and feel the emotions as you listen to the sage wisdom of Don Clarkson and explore the depths of who you are or want to be. Learn the difference between cockiness and humble confidence as you shake your core to embrace new and exciting opportunities.
Rafe graduated from TLC in 2002 and joined the faculty that same year. He has served on the F Warrior Alumni Board and the TLC Board of Directors.
TLC seminars return this fall with October seminars on Cross-Examination and Voir Dire, and continue in December with Discover the Story of Your Case.
