CORPORATE COUNSEL COLLEGE PROGRAM SPOTLIGHT: A corporate representative deposition is perhaps the most important and critical deposition in a case. It is the testimony that, like no other, establishes what a company knows, what it does not know, and what it should have known about the critical facts and issues in a case. At the same time, a good corporate representative deposition can provide the opportunity for the corporation to tell its story. Given the importance of corporate representative testimony, selecting the right witness is key. Moderator Sarah Bunce (Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough) and panelists Bryant Hall (Pinterest), Bonnie Mayfield (Dykema), and Aldos Vance (Vance Dispute Resolution, PC) will discuss considerations for selecting a corporate representative and provide perspectives from both in-house and outside counsel on the decision-making involved in choosing the right witness. #iadcmeetings https://lnkd.in/gS_xhUJn   

A good litigator selects expert witnesses who have decades of experience and advanced degrees. A GREAT litigator strategically searches for, tests, and selects the best experts to match each specific case, considering geographic location, experience, education, relatability, manner, and presentation skills. If your case depends on not just expertise, but also how well a jury and judge will understand that expertise, you must dedicate time to the crucial stage of selecting the right expert. Genevieve Sauter and Dan Rubin reveal their tips for locating and presenting the right experts on ABA Litigation Section Radio: https://lnkd.in/gnnrY25U #litigation

In a court you need a lawyer who is a combat artist - but that personality most times does not play out well in a negotiation room. Horses for courses as they say in the classics.

Do not make these 3 mistakes if you're prepping your plaintiff for a deposition ⤵️ #1. Winging it. Winging it will never work, preparation is KEY for a successful plaintiff deposition. Help your clients by making sure they're thoroughly prepped and ready for the process. #2. The "Woe is Me" narrative 😒 - your client should be telling a tale of triumph, not a tale of weakness and sadness. Keep the testimony upbeat, positive, and focused on their future plans. #3. Spilling unnecessary details. Advise your client beforehand to answer ONLY the questions asked. Keep the deposition efficient and prevent the opposition from gaining unnecessary insights. Preparation + positivity + precision = the winning combo for a successful deposition. ⭐️ Disclaimer: Your case and/or outcome may vary. This post is not legal advice. There is no agreement to provide legal representation. Contact an attorney to review your specific case. _________ #goodylawgroup #californialawfirm #wyominglawyer #personalinjurylawfirm #deposition #plaintiffattorney #plaintifflawyer
