The book Unlocking the Law of Evidence is written by Dr.Charanjit Singh. Lawyers understand that litigation is based on evidence; therefore, a thorough understanding of the law is of paramount importance. The rules on admissibility, relevance, and weight will help you realize very quickly that the tactical use of such rules can facilitate success. Many cases are won and lost solely on the basis of a lawyer’s mastery of the evidence, and therefore whether or not and how they use it. The goal of this book is to provide you with a clear and comprehensive discussion of the law and to reinforce your learning with diagrams, summaries, and exercises. Evidence has a habit of presenting problems that often require immediate answers; for example, a witness may say something in his or her statement that is so prejudicial in nature that it would require a new jury to take an oath. This book brings together academic law with its most practical reality. The law is set as of March 1, 2022. This fourth edition has been rewritten, edited, and updated and includes new cases, commentary, and contemporary discussion.
