    Cement Your Case with Wisconsin Rules of Evidence: A Courtroom Handbook

    Pieces of evidence are the building blocks of your client’s story. Tell the story clearly, convincingly, and compellingly by presenting strong evidence that will pass objection. Designed for trial use, Wisconsin Rules of Evidence: A Courtroom Handbook is an on-the-spot reference to the Wisconsin Rules of Evidence. The strategically organized Evidence Handbook covers every section of the Wisconsin Rules of Evidence, providing the full text of each, along with the complete corresponding Judicial Council Committee Notes. Illustrative case annotations and practical commentary on specific evidentiary issues, related statutes, and Supreme Court Rules bring the rules to life to help you do justice – justice to your client’s story, and justice for your client.
