I posted this article recently at my South Carolina Family Lawyer blog, and I thought that my readers here might find it helpful as well:
“A picture is worth a thousand words.” There are many opportunities for family law attorneys to use graphs in presenting their cases at trial. For instance, graphs can be used to illustrate the nights that a child has spent with each parent, various asset/debt distributions, or even income earned over a given period of time.
The National Center for Eduction Statistics offers Create A Graph, a Web 2.0 graph program available for free. This program allows you to create 2-D, 3-D, or drop-shadow graphs in pie, bar, line, and area formats. Better yet, you are able to easily export your graphs to *.pdf, *.jpg , or other image formats. If you are interested in creating helpful demonstrative evidence for free, be sure to visit this NCES site and give it a try.
