Rick Friedman has authored five books for Trial Lawyers

Rules Of The Road

Plaintiff’s Lawyers Guide To Proving Liability

Rules of the Road is America’s bestselling text on proving liability. Since its original release in 2006, it has helped lawyers throughout the country win six-, seven-, and eight-figure verdicts in cases with difficult liability. The book is the basis of an AAJ Trial College, the topic of many CLE lectures by the country’s leading lawyers, and is taught in trial advocacy classes at law schools.

Polarizing The Case

Exposing And Defeating The Malingering Myth

In his second book, Polarizing the Case, Rick Friedman teaches trial lawyers not to fear allegations or insinuations that their client is malingering or exaggerating injuries. Instead he provides, in his own words, “a guidebook for wrapping the malingering defense around the neck of the defense lawyer and strangling him with it.”
