Roger J. Dodd
ROGER J. DODD tries and consults on cases of all types, including but not limited to personal injury, civil and criminal, throughout the United States and beyond. He is licensed in five states – Utah, Montana, Oklahoma, Georgia, and Florida, and has active offices in Utah (Park City), Oklahoma (Tulsa, Norman, and Oklahoma City), Georgia (Valdosta) and Florida (Jacksonville). With fewer and fewer trial lawyers with experience, he is called on continuously because of his more than 44 years’ experience in trying cases.
Mr. Dodd has been board certified by the National Board of Trial Advocacy in civil trial practice for more than 25 years and was certified in criminal trial practice for more than 20 years. One of his most recent consultations involved a case in London, England. While his most time consuming efforts are trials, he has taught trial skills, in particularly cross-examination in all 50 states, and in multiple foreign countries on multiple continents. He continues to teach in various formats.
Larry Pozner
LARRY POZNER proudly traces his roots to the Colorado Public Defender system. His career has included a broad range of criminal cases, representation of plaintiffs and defendants in commercial matters, and several years representing the Denver Broncos Football franchise.
Larry's programs on cross-examination and trial tactics have taken him to 48 states, across Canada, and strangely, to Brazil. His full day seminars on cross-examination can be tailored for separate audiences: criminal defense, civil plaintiff, civil defense, family law, etc. These power-point programs are built around the Chapter Method of cross-examination and include a great many examples of the techniques.
Larry is a past president of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He is listed in the Best Lawyers in America in Bet-the-Company Litigation and in Criminal Defense, both street crimes and white collar matters.
For information on his CLE programs he can be contacted at Lspozcle@gmail.com.
