How To Avoid Mistakes In Requesting and Responding to Discovery

Is the discovery process a foreign language to you? Have you ever wondered why some people are more successful in the discovery process than others? Written discovery is an under-utilized opportunity to build and support your case in the early stages of litigation. Attorneys may find themselves going through the motions of completing discovery using form responses and waiting to dig deeper into the discovery process. 

In the presentation, Cari Sheehan, Assistant Clinical Professor of Business Law and Ethics at IU Kelley School of Business - Indianapolis, will discuss tips, tricks, and checklists for requesting and responding to discovery. Additionally, the presentation will discuss Public Records Requests, Interrogatories, Requests for Admission, Request for Production of Documents, Subpoenas, and e-discovery.
