Broward County Courthouse,
Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Fort Lauderdale, Florida
See other courthouse
The current Broward County Courthouse was
constructed in 1962 and consisted of a large scale addition
to the 1926 structure. A major renovation again occurred in
the mid 1990's, resulting in the addition of the north and
east wings. A large bronze bell which originally chimed every
half hour from the courthouse was relocated to its current
site in the courtyard and near the main entrance.
Your Client's Credibility Can "Make
or Break" The Case
Credibility is composed of expertise and trustworthiness.
Expertise is knowledge about the matter at hand; trustworthiness
relates to one's motives and intentions. Witnesses who are
credible in fact finders' eyes have a marked advantage over
witnesses who lack credibility. The client, as the key witness
for your side, must demonstrate credibility in every facet
of his or her testimony. If the jury or judge disbelieve any
aspect of your client's testimony, however minor in its effect
on the legal aspects of your case, this disbelief may provide
the basis for finding against your client. Regardless of whether
you have tried the "perfect" case, your client's
credibility holds the key to your overall success.
