Manage episode 518874667 series 3480307
You’ve received your Trial Order, and now the clock is ticking — deadlines, discovery, and witness prep are suddenly all due at once. Why does trial preparation take so long? Why does it cost so much?
In this episode of Business SOS!, attorney Rich Sierra, President of the Florida Small Business Legal Center, breaks down what’s inside a Trial Order, the purpose behind each deadline, and why trial preparation can be one of the most time-consuming and expensive parts of litigation.
Rich also dives deep into the Joint Pretrial Stipulation — the critical, court-mandated document that becomes your case’s roadmap for trial. Learn what it includes, why it’s so labor-intensive, and how missing a single deadline can jeopardize your entire case.
This episode is a must-listen for business owners in litigation, entrepreneurs facing trial, and anyone who wants to understand how to work effectively with their attorney during the trial phase. How to Contact Rich Sierra
