Your deposition in a court case may be the first time you’ve ever been asked to give legal testimony under oath. Because the questions may be very personal and your answers may be important to your case, and because you’ll be testifying in a room with your Atlanta lawyer and one or more opposing lawyers, a deposition can be intimidating. If you’re giving a deposition in a Georgia civil case, it helps to know ahead of time what to expect.

Before Your Deposition

A deposition is a formal meeting, usually around a conference table in a law office, at which you answer questions under oath. Most questions will be asked by the other party’s lawyer, although your own attorney may occasionally ask you a question to clarify an answer you have given. Under Georgia law, a deposition can’t last more than seven hours. You’ll have to swear to tell the truth, and your answers will be either recorded by a court reporter typing on a special machine, or by an electronic recording device. Your Atlanta attorney will talk to you ahead of time about the type of questions you’re likely to be asked in your particular case, and explain anything that you do not understand.

Generally, you should expect the other party’s lawyer to ask questions about the basic facts of your case, and questions designed to expose any weaknesses they think might exist in your case. These will include information about yourself and details about what happened. If there’s something you find embarrassing that you think might come up at the deposition (such as a bankruptcy, a criminal conviction, a messy divorce, or other situation) tell your lawyer about it ahead of time. Your attorney will help you prepare for your testimony about whatever it is that is embarrassing to you. If your attorney thinks that subject is not an appropriate matter for questions, your attorney will tell you to remain silent if you are asked about it, and at the deposition, your attorney will object to the question and instruct you not to answer.

Even though a deposition isn’t a trial, it is a very serious occasion. Wear conservative clothes (like you would for a job interview), arrive on time, and be on your best behavior. Let the opposing lawyer finish speaking before you answer, don’t argue, and be polite, even if the questions upset you. Remember, the opposing lawyer will take your behavior and appearance at the deposition as an indication of how you would testify and act at trial, and if you act badly, it can result in a less favorable settlement offer from the other side.

During the Deposition: Answering Questions

Before the questions begin, you will be asked to swear an oath to tell the truth. That means you have to answer everything you’re asked truthfully, to the best of your knowledge. A dishonest answer can backfire badly – if you are caught, any settlement offer may be less favorable, and if you forget that you lied and give a different answer at trial, a jury may decide you are not to be trusted about anything and decide against you for that reason alone. Listen carefully to each question, and answer only what is asked.

You should not volunteer information that is not asked for, nor should you chat with the other lawyer or other party (if they are present) during breaks.

When it’s possible, stick with “yes” and “no” answers when asked. And if you don’t know the answer, say so. Do not make up information. You can take time to think about what actually happened before answering.

One important way in which a deposition is not like a trial is that you’re allowed to take breaks. If you need to use the bathroom, talk to your attorney or just get some fresh air, you should ask.

During the Deposition – Answering Hostile or Embarrassing Questions

At a deposition, you can expect some of the other lawyer’s questions to seem hostile or overly personal. Unfortunately, that’s part of the deposition process. It’s the other lawyer’s job to find out everything that might matter to the outcome of the case, both good and bad, personal and impersonal, including information that might be helpful to the other side. But there are rules about what kinds of questions can be asked. Your attorney will object and tell you not to answer if the question breaks the rules. However, you should not be the person who argues with the other lawyer, even if you are asked a question you feel is inappropriate or irrelevant. If your attorney is silent, ask for a break to discuss the question with your attorney.

If you’re facing hostile questions, remember that you’re not being timed. You can and should take a moment to think about your answer. Not only does it help you give the best possible answer, but it prevents the other lawyer from building up momentum. If you’re asked a question that’s really two or more questions, ask the questioner to break it down for you.

Watch out for questions about how you’re feeling. In ordinary conversation, it’s polite to say you’re “fine.” In a deposition, the questioner could use that answer to argue that you are in better health than you actually are. If you are an accident victim and have suffered serious injury from a workplace or car accident Atlanta, for example, be prepared to talk in detail about your injuries and the kinds of pain you feel.

You should also be careful of questions that ask about specific details. For example, the other lawyer might ask you about the exact time an event occurred, or details about other persons who were present. Most people won’t remember those details specifically, especially if they were an accident victim with a serious injury. Unless you can remember the exact time of day something happened, it’s best to say it was “about” or “approximately” the time you remember. If you can remember exactly, expect the other lawyer to ask you why you remember so well.

Finally, sometimes the other lawyer will ask you a question that assumes something untrue. For example, “When did you decide to file a frivolous lawsuit against our client?” Don’t ignore the part of the question that isn’t true; some would take that to mean you agree. Instead, you should point out that you don’t agree with part of the question, and then answer the other part. For example, “I don’t believe that my lawsuit is frivolous, as you suggested. But I can tell you what day we filed it.”

After the Deposition

After the deposition, your attorney will receive a document that contains the record of the questions and your answers as they were recorded. You may have an opportunity to make corrections to your testimony at that time; your attorney can discuss with you whether this is a good idea. If your case does not settle, your attorney will use your deposition to help you prepare to testify at trial. However, a good deposition – where your answers are clear and truthful, and you are polite and prepared — may be very helpful to your attorney in obtaining a favorable settlement in your case.

Sebastian Gibson at any of the numbers which can be found on our website at http://www.SebastianGibsonLaw.com  .

 

1. Personal Injury, Car Accidents, Drowning Accidents, Brain Damage, Catastrophic Injuries and Wrongful Deaths in La Quinta – If you’ve had a La Quinta auto, motorcycle, truck, pedestrian, bicycle, bus, train, airplane or car accident of any kind, get the other driver’s information, take camera or cell phone pictures, call the police, get a report, seek medical treatment immediately, call us or another good La Quinta personal injury lawyer, follow up with more medical treatment if you are still hurt, report the accident to your insurance agent, file a report with the DMV and don’t talk to anyone else or give a recorded statement until you talk with us. If you’ve lost a loved on in an accident, call us or another good La Quinta personal injury lawyer immediately. If you’ve been bitten by a dog, get treatment, call animal control and then call us. If you or someone you know has come close to drowning, seek medical treatment immediately as death or serious injury can still occur hours later.

 

2. La Quinta Business – Put everything in writing and preferably with our help or the help of another good La Quinta business lawyer. Spend money only as you need to. A La Quinta business attorney can tell you where to save costs and how to do it without risking liability. Limit your promises to employees and to customers. Buy insurance. Protect your intellectual property at the outset. Don’t disclose your inventions or any trade secrets to anyone without a non-disclosure agreement. Incorporate as soon as you are profitable. Get legal advice for problems or indications of pending lawsuits immediately. Keep all costs, including labor costs, to the bare minimum. Always use confidentiality agreements when disclosing valuable information and be careful what information you agree to receive. Tell customers they must pay in advance or on delivery. Do not agree to bill and be paid at a date after delivery. Otherwise you won’t be paid on a percentage of your products. Be wary of the potential for fraud by customers, business partners and employees.

 

3. Residential and Commercial Real Estate, Landlord Tenant Law, Mortgage Law and Homeowners Association Law in La Quinta – Use a La Quinta real estate lawyer who is also a Realtor, or a Realtor who is also a La Quinta real estate attorney. Don’t buy or lease more than you need. Choose the right location. Choose the right mortgage. Don’t refinance if you think you may need to walk away from a home. Don’t buy more than you can afford. Check out the neighborhood carefully. Get a home inspection and a home warranty. Have a La Quinta real estate lawyer look over the documents. Homeowner Associations are facing a host of problems stemming from the number of foreclosures. As fees are reduced by vacant homes and condos, projects must be trimmed back or delayed in order to save money. Some homeowner associations, who were already in trouble, may face additional problems in the future and both homeowners and their associations should consult with legal counsel to help resolve how to deal with such issues.

 

4. Construction in La Quinta – With the construction industry in it’s biggest ever slump, down more than 90% from its peak in many areas, La Quinta contractors need to shift their focus to energy free homes, apartment construction and to take advantage of contracts likely to be offered for bid under the new administration’s plan to create new jobs rebuilding the country’s infrastructure, construction of roads, bridges, the electrical grid and other utility projects. If you are dealing with contractors yourself, always use licensed contractors and have a La Quinta construction lawyer look over your contracts. You can also investigate the contractor online to ensure he is licensed and insured and a La Quinta construction attorney can do an additional investigation at little extra cost. Never pay a contractor the entire sum for a project at the start. Put all agreements in writing, including any changes.

 

5. La Quinta Patents and Biotechnology – A patent should be applied for, for any new, and non-obvious process, or invention and to any new improvement of an invention at first opportunity. A patent is good for 20 years. Depending upon the complexity, most utility patent applications will cost between $8,000 and $12,000.00. A design patent can be applied for by a La Quinta patent attorney, for the look of an item and is good for 14 years. A provisional patent can be applied for, good for one year at a cost of half of the usual utility patent cost but is only good for one year. If the inventor does not upgrade the provisional patent into a utility patent application within that period, usually for the cost of the remainder of the corresponding cost of a utility patent, the inventor loses his or her protection. A patent is pending once it has been applied for, and can be licensed, or sold outright. Without a patent, others can make and sell your invention with no compensation to you. Patent searches help the La Quinta patent lawyer write an application around existing patents and cost an additional sum, usually under $1,000.00. Drawings must also be prepared for the patent application usually for under $500.00. A design patent can be sought for between $1,000 to $1,500 and a European design patent for between $2,000 to $2,500. Accelerated patent applications usually cost an additional 50% of normal patent applications. Foreign patent applications also require additional fees.

 

6. La Quinta Trademarks – Trademark any original logos, designs, words, phrases, symbols or combinations that you use to identify your products or services as soon as possible. Call a La Quinta trademark attorney as soon as anyone else’s trademark or service mark is so similar as to c
ause a likelihood of confusion in the public or if you receive a cease and desist letter from someone else accusing you of infringement. Trademark applications range from between $2,500 if there has not yet been any use of the trademark to $1,500 to apply for a trademark already in use. Therefore, to save money, create some products and advertising materials and apply for the trademark once they are ready to be sold and advertised.

 

7. La Quinta Corporations – Never incorporate by yourself. Corporations will not protect you from liability if you do not follow corporate formalities correctly. Protect your intellectual property from the start with the help of a La Quinta corporations attorney. Don’t borrow someone else’s employee handbook or fire problematic employees without legal advice. Don’t get investors without seeing one of our La Quinta corporate attorneys. Cut costs to the bone. Use extra money to advertise, and sell in new markets. A La Quinta corporations lawyer can provide you with advice as to which type of corporation or LLC to use for your business.

 

8. Entertainment Law, Sports Law, Marketing, Advertising, Media and Copyrights in La Quinta – Whether you are a musician, an actor, a model, a writer, an athlete, a broadcaster or connected in any other way to the entertainment industry, contact us or another good La Quinta entertainment attorney as soon as anyone gives you a contract to sign. Signing a bad contract can end your career before it’s ever begun. As soon as you have written any body of work, have it copyrighted. You can do this quite easily yourself, but if you need assistance or if someone else infringes your copyrighted work, you can then file suit against such a party.

 

9. La Quinta Litigation – At the first sign that someone may sue you or your business, consult with a La Quinta litigation attorney. Many times, a lawsuit can be forestalled before it has been filed or the matter resolved with letters between the litigation attorneys. If you are served with a lawsuit, hire a La Quinta litigation lawyer like one from our firm who specializes in mediations and non-binding arbitrations so your litigation can be resolved at the soonest possible opportunity and limit your exposure to years of lawyer’s fees and costs as your case winds slowly through the courts.

 

10. Employment Law in La Quinta – It may seem silly to think you should hire a La Quinta employment attorney whenever you are considering firing an employee, but it has come to that. However, a consultation with a good La Quinta employment law firm can provide you with the advice of how to handle your employee relations both immediately and in the future as you either seek to cut costs or get rid of a problematic employee. If you have been sued or threatened with a suit, or are being scammed by an employee, consult a La Quinta employment lawyer immediately.
