HOW TO PREPARE FOR YOUR PERSONAL INJURY DEPOSITION

When you file a personal injury lawsuit, the defendant is entitled to take your deposition. At your deposition, the defense attorney will ask you questions under oath, which you must answer. A court reporter will be taking down all of the questions and answers word for word. After the deposition is over, the court reporter will type up all of the questions and answers into a booklet. Your deposition is critically important because your answers can be used against you in court if your case goes to trial.
