Preparations for FINAL ARGUMENTS in Court

Hello friends, today we shall talk about the necessary pre-requisites a young lawyer shall take into account before arguing a matter at the stage of final arguments. This is one of the most crucial stages of the case in deciding the final outcome of a particular case. Generally, not much of a time is given to argue a particular case. In other words, a limited time is allotted to address your arguments. Thus, the arguments is to be prepared in such a manner that the important points to be addressed in most concise manner so as to clearly convey your point with utmost clarity. Hence, following are some of the most relevant points one should keep in mind before preparing for arguments:-

Firstly, you should be well aware of all the facts and circumstances of the particular case file. This means that you must have gone through the entire case file in detail before the day of the matter. It includes reading of the plaint/complaint, written statement, replication. This can be followed by a list of dates and events be prepared for your own understanding of the said case and for better clarity.

Secondly, you shall be well verse with the evidence filed in the matter. By this, it means that a list of documents which have been filed in evidence (commonly known as exhibits), must be noted down in form of a chart depicting the particular document against the said exhibit no. This exercise will eventually make it very easier for the person arguing to directly see the exhibit no. of the document while referring it before the court of law.

Thirdly, the cross examination of the parties done in a particular case be read very carefully to find out if there appears any contradictions while comparing the same with the affidavit of evidence filed, the same may be marked with a highlighter. This will make you aware as to what all points are relevant to address before the court. 

Fourthly, one must separately make a note as to what are the factual points and what are the legal issues which needs to be addressed. The legal issues to be supported with relevant and recent case laws wherever possible.

These are some of the basic things one should be ready with before arguing the case in a court of law.

I hope it will be helpful to all.

Thanks
