Scott Mitchell & Associates is the undisputed leader in educating the legal profession on the strategies and responsibilities of modern litigation communication techniques. Specifically, firm President Scott Mitchell begins each CLE with the legal and ethical obligations of lawyers, and teaches strategies and tactics from that vantage point. This is no cheesy PR media training course: Mitchell is an influential and active member of both the American Society of Trial Consultants (ASTC) and the Association for Continuing Legal Education (ACLEA), an organization dedicated to the improvement and greater dissemination of continuing legal education.

Our CLE programs provide overview and instruction regarding the growing field of litigation communication strategies and tactics, including a specific overview of the history, legal ramifications, ethical requirements and present applications of Litigation Communications. We're educating some of America’s oldest and most prestigious firms, and it is fascinating to see even veteran attorneys adopting the new philosophy and ceasing the outdated “no-comment” mistake.

In high profile, high stakes litigation, the reporter has a job to do, and they will do it. Our CLE’s also include instruction about the world of legal reporters, and how to communicate with them during legal cases to present your case in the best light. We cite and analyze historical high profile cases, grading the responses and tactics of the participants.
