This month, we discuss Giving a Deposition without giving your case away. When your opponent sends you a deposition notice, you should prepare for tricks and pressure tactics to make you testify against yourself. If you’re not ready on Deposition Day, you may say things under oath that can and will be used against you. We’ll share strategies for getting through a likely hostile conversation unscathed.

This month, we discuss Taking a Deposition, the process of collecting testimony from a potential witness before trial. If your opponent lists a witness for trial, you’ll want to hear that testimony before a judge or jury hears it so you can prepare to challenge it. Even if they’re not listed for trial, deposing a hostile witness can suss out information your opponent may be hiding. We’ll share strategies for getting to the meat of the matter.
