Advanced Deposition Techniques in Litigation

Gain insight into how to take your depositions to the next level.

This program will demonstrate how to take a deposition for purposes of dispositive motion and for use at trial. As for dispositive motions, depending on which side of the fence you are on, establishing or eliminating a question of fact can make or break your case. Learn how to lock in testimony that leaves no doubt about what it is you are seeking. If a trial is where the case is heading, learn how to ask questions to establish clear and concise facts and how to set the groundwork for impeachment at trial. Establishing foundations for critical documents is imperative for both motion practice and trial. The methods employed will assist in getting more out of your depositions.
