For at least the last half-century, the success or failure of most litigations is determined by how well the attorneys conducted pre-trial discovery was. This Course will prepare you for every aspect of pre-trial discovery, especially document production and depositions. The goal is to obtain all of the information and documents you need to assess the strength or weakness of your case for possible settlement or dispositive motions, as well as, if necessary, the trial of the case. The course will also show you how to make your adversaries "work" to obtaining the discovery they need, including how to prepare your client and other favorable witnesses for depositions.
