Washington, DC (February 21, 2019) – Today, Fastcase’s publishing division, Full Court Press, debuted its first print book, MAP a Complex Case: A Guide for Managing, Analyzing, and Presenting a High-Risk Case by Dave Dolkas. The book is now available for sale via the Fastcase bookstore and on the Fastcase Legal Research System.

 

Full Court Press teamed with Dolkas, a former partner at McDermott Will & Emery with over thirty years of experience as a litigator and trial attorney, to publish his comprehensive instructional guide on how to MAP (Manage, Analyze, and Present) a high-risk case. The book is an excellent resource for attorneys of all experience levels. MAP a Complex Case guides lawyers in managing a litigation team, organizing and synthesizing evidence into a compelling narrative, and effectively presenting evidence at trial. By following the skilled instruction of this comprehensive manual,complete with discussion questions and practical examples, readers will grasp the fundamental techniques that underpin successful legal representation from inception through trial.

 

With adding MAP a Complex Case as its first hard copy published book, Full Court Press continues its quest to add unique, must-have content for its subscribers, and provide leading legal analysis with contributions from firm partners across the country. 

 

“We’re excited about working with Dave to publish the new edition of this pragmatic reference book for litigators,” said Full Court Press Publisher Morgan Morrissette Wright. “By making the title available on Fastcase and in many other formats, we’re able to share Dave’s innovative MAP process with a wider array of litigators and legal professionals.” 

 

“MAP a Complex Case is based on tried and true methods I have applied to a wide array of complex cases, and from teaching lawyers and law students for over 25 years. This book will help lawyers and legal professionals achieve the desired result with their complex cases—meaning accomplishing the mission of the case on time and on budget,” said Dolkas. “I’m delighted that MAP a Complex Case is the first print book the Full Court Press team selected to publish. Full Court Press is an impressive and first-rate publisher.”
