We all tell stories, almost every day of our lives, to most of our friends and many of those whom we have just met or known for long. It is what we do.

Trial lawyers do this for a living, in opening and closing arguments to judges and juries.

In a book titled In the Interest of Justice - Great Opening and Closing Arguments of the last 100 Years, Joel Seidemann, then an Assistant District Attorney for Manhattan selected 15 cases to include in his book.

They are the two verdicts in the O.J. Simpson case, the Oklahoma City Bombing trial, In the Name of 6 Million, the trial of Adolph Eichmann and the Jeffrey MacDonald triple murder case.

I hope you will sit back and listen to the words of lawyers trying to win their cases, each passionate in the cause of their clients.
