About This Course

Depositions are a fairly standard feature in trial strategy. In nursing home care cases, they fulfill a very necessary and fundamental element in building your case. This CLE course will explain the purpose of a deposition and perhaps more importantly, identify what many mistakenly believe a deposition should be used for. The course will identify the various individuals to target for deposition, important information in how to depose these witnesses, effective preparation, testimonies and admissions an attorney should seek, establishing credibility and techniques to employ to get the results that will impact the final outcome of your case.
