Depositions are one of the most crucial (and exciting) stages of litigation. They clarify and illuminate the facts of your and your adversary’s case in a way that the documents alone simply cannot. They bring a case to life by putting faces to names. They preview what a trial might look like, including the strengths and weaknesses of the case. Handled well, they can also lead to a settlement, solidify your grounds for summary judgment, and lock opponents into important positions for trial. Whether you are a first-year litigation associate or a senior partner, join skilled and experienced litigators Qian Julie Wang and Rayna E. Kessler for a discussion of strategies and techniques for maximizing your effectiveness at preparing for, taking, and defending depositions.
