Through a blend of lecture and dramatic representation, this programme aims to teach your clients to: listen to the question; pause before answering; answer only the question asked; keep their answers short; never volunteer; give you time to make an objection; never guess at the answer. Each segment of the programme presents a realistic deposition situation, illustrating the most common mistakes a witness can be led to make. Your client will see the consequences of these deposition errors and, finally, how the errors could have been avoided. Written by a litigator from Debevoise & Plimpton, this programme should help reduce the possibility of embarrassing or even catastrophic deposition errors and thus help ensure a more favorable outcome for your case.
