Without formal training focusing on the procedures of the trial, the rules of the courtroom, the expectations of the jury, etc. many officers have to rely in their instinct to be the best witness they can. Legal Sciences’ COURTROOM SUCCESS training gives officers a foundation and structure to support their individual styles, and goes far beyond the “how to dress” and “where to look” rules. This training includes hands-on activities including a mock trial that exposes officers to a wide range of testifying styles, the equivalence of many years of testifying. This course will raise the level of officer testimony by understanding foundational principles and juror psychology.
John B. Kwasnoski is Professor Emeritus of Forensic Physics at Western New England University, Springfield, MA, after thirty-one years on the faculty. He is a certified police trainer in more than twenty states, and has instructed prosecutors, police, and civil attorneys on more than 250 occasions across the U.S. He is the crash reconstructionist on the “Lethal Weapon - DWI Homicide” team formed by the National Traffic Law Center to teach prosecutors how to utilize expert witness testimony and cross examine adverse expert witnesses.
Prof. Kwasnoski has reconstructed more than 1,200 crashes, including multiple and single vehicle, pedestrian, motorcycle, and train crashes, and has given sworn testimony on more than 200 occasions; he has been training the NYPD collision reconstruction unit since 2001; and continues to serve as a consultant to prosecutors nationwide on MV homicide cases. He has worked for more than twenty major insurers as a consultant/expert witness, and has conducted training for claims adjusters and special investigators for a number of insurance companies.
Prof. Kwasnoski is the author and co-author of several books, has published more than 60 journal and newsletter articles on collision reconstruction, and maintains an active speaking schedule nationwide.
