Depositions are often underestimated, and that can be costly. A deposition is sworn testimony. The questions can be difficult, and what is said on the record can significantly impact the outcome of a case. Witnesses who guess, over-explain, argue, or try to be clever often create more issues than they resolve.

Preparation, careful listening, and honest, precise answers are what matter most. Litigation is often slower, more procedural, and more evidence-driven than people expect. A realistic understanding of the process helps clients make better decisions and avoid preventable mistakes.
