“Dear Stewart,

I hope all is well.  I wanted to let you know I was co-trial counsel in a trademark case.  Somehow this particular case lent itself to the style of cross I’ve seen you use on YouTube in one of your mock criminal defense cases.  I was channeling you all the way.  All the way, it turns out, to a $8.6 million jury verdict.
I still look forward to meeting you in person one day.  In the meantime, please keep putting those videos on YouTube!”

-Ben M. Davidson, Davidson Law Group
“A few years ago I tried a major federal criminal case with Stewart in the Southern District of New York. We were representing co-defendants and obtained acquittals. Stewart’s cross examination of government witnesses was textbook. I learned a lot from watching him. Since then I have on several occasions consulted with him about criminal cases and he always provides practical, sage advice. Stewart is one the best trial lawyers I have had the privilege of working with over the last 26 years of practice.”
