As a former assistant prosecuting attorney and radio talk show host, Rockind believes that killer cross examination is the key to winning any case. Rockind has become known for winning cases that other lawyers could not, cases that lawyers and prosecutors believed could not be won and cases where other lawyers would have given up.
