Joseph Dart, and the Honourable Justice Kristin Muszynski, discuss the phases of a civil trial, and what lawyers can do to prepare for the trial, including the preparation and scheduling of witnesses, identifying potential legal issues, preparing expert evidence, using trial management conferences, and assembling a costs outline.
