Equal Justice Works

Steven Wood served as an instructor of National Institute for Trial Advocacy’s (NITA) Equal Justice Works program. Mr. Wood provided guidance on all basic trial skills – opening and closing, direct and cross examinations, jury selection and courtroom persuasion – to 42 attorneys from 14 states. In the second program, attendees were all fellows of Equal Justice Works. Equal Justice Works Fellowships fund hundreds of public interest attorneys each year to close the justice gap on issues such as foreclosure, community economic development, immigration, civil rights, homelessness, access to healthcare, and domestic violence.
