PowerPoint’s use in the legal profession, both in and out of the courtroom, has become nearly invaluable. The course specifically focuses on presentations that are unique to lawyers. The topics contrast starkly with every popular PowerPoint manual on the market today, none of which teaches the features used specifically for the presentation of evidence in the courtroom or how to build a flow chart to explain the benefits of an AB Trust. Just a few of the ways in which PowerPoint can help legal professionals include opening statements and closing arguments in trial, presentations at mediation or arbitration, and presenting complicated legal concepts to clients so they can understand the legal issues involved in their matter. For judges, more and more are using PowerPoint to introduce rules and protocols in the courtroom, and instructions to the jury.

Microsoft Word combines font and paragraph formatting into something called Styles. Styles are applied to all text whether you want them or not, and the feature cannot be turned off. Unfortunately, using Word reveals almost nothing about what Styles are, what they do, or how to control them. This seminar builds on your existing knowledge of styles and shows you how to base a new style on an existing style, how to control which styles follows a paragraph when you “return,” how to create new styles, and making Word’s styles pane useful for the legal user.

Prior to joining the Affinity family, Jeff practiced law with Legal Aid in Cincinnati, Ohio.
