To help advance your case smoothly and efficiently, the Florida Practitioner's Guide®: Civil Trial Preparation provides detailed coverage of trial notebooks, pretrial motions, discovery, and evidentiary issues. Settlement options are also explored in detail as an alternate to trial.

In addition to addressing amended rules, revised statutes, and new case law, the Tenth edition provides updated forms and coverage of the following hot topics:

  • COVID-19 pandemic's impact on trials and depositions
  • Current judicial split over the award of punitive damages and express or affirmative findings
  • Award of attorneys' fees and requests for admission that would resolve the ultimate issues, if admitted, versus requests for admissions that go to establishing a relevant fact
  • Florida courts' recent holding that an order granting a motion to sever is not an appealable nonfinal order
  • Court-ordered, nonbinding arbitration and the recent determination that a ""request for a trial de novo,"" has the same meaning as a ""motion for trial""
