Is it objectionable "lay opinion" when the writer of a document gives his own view of why something happened? With this guide, you won't have to guess"--

In Laying Foundations and Meeting Objections, Deanne Siemer gives you the questions to ask and the answers to get from your witness so that your exhibits will be admitted in evidence. Set up the foundation for an exhibit and protect against the objections available to your opponent.

Each of the elements has specific requirements right from the evidence rules. Keep yourself on firm ground so that each element is met.
