Instruction From A World Leading Authority

Professor Clark Freshman is the world’s most sought-after speaker on lie detection and nonverbal communication for lawyers and negotiators. A tenured Professor of Law at the University of California (Hastings), Professor Freshman collaborated for years with Paul Ekman, scientific advisor to TV’s Lie to Me. The seminar includes critical analysis of Ekman’s methods as well as Professor Freshman’s own research at Harvard Business School and elsewhere. Professor Freshman’s published research appears in journals at Stanford, Harvard, Columbia, Cornell, UCLA, and elsewhere. International media from Danish Broadcasting to PBS to the Wall Street Journal have covered his work.
