Put yourself in a realistic deposition setting and discover a questioning style that best fits your personality and skills. Deposition Skills provides a strong framework for basic techniques, and explores a variety of questioning methods. The result is that witnesses are encouraged to give expansive, exhaustive answers--including other potential sources of information-and that other potential avenues of escape are closed off.

Participants also learn to theory-test on subjects of importance to the case. You will receive supportive, helpful suggestions on how to improve performance, utilizing frequent repetitions in the learning-by-doing method to help master new techniques. A portion of the program is also devoted to ethical considerations in deposition settings and witness preparation.
