Autorenporträt

Francis Lewis Wellman (1854–1942) was an American lawyer and author, whose literary contributions have had a remarkable influence on the legal profession, particularly in the field of trial advocacy. Wellman's seminal work, 'The Art of Cross-Examination' (1903), has long been revered as a classic guide for lawyers, providing insightful analysis and practical advice on the techniques of effective cross-examination. Born into a distinguished family, Wellman was the son of a New York Supreme Court Justice, which likely informed his deep understanding of the judicial process. His career as a prosecutor at the New York County District Attorney's Office lent him first-hand experience in the courtroom, sharpening his skills and forming the foundation for his literary achievements. Wellman's writing is noted for its clarity, elegance, and educational value, combining real-life cases with theoretical discourse. His work remains a staple in law schools and an invaluable reference for both novice and seasoned litigators alike. His contributions not only elucidate the complexities of the American legal system but also underscore the critical role cross-examination plays in the pursuit of justice.
