Virtual VS In-Person Depositions

Depositions are highly beneficial for attorneys who choose to have them as a part of their case. Depositions allow the attorney to gather a complete profile of facts and testimonies before trial in order to form a solid case. By having a court reporter present, all questions and answers are recorded in a transcript that attorneys can use for analysis.

The problem with depositions in our current state, however, is the fact that it brings a large group of people together. In order to combat that problem, Ryan Reporting proudly offer remote depositions. This service allows attorneys to meet with everyone they need to for a face-to-face deposition all from the comfort of their home. Remote depositions provide the same service as in-person depositions, just with a few distinctions.

Prepare for Virtual Depositions

Inform all parties involved that you would like to conduct a remote deposition.
Share all necessary documents and exhibits with everyone involved (this includes your court reporter).
Ensure that your webcam and microphone properly work.
Make sure your background is clean and you wear professional clothing.
Limit background noise as possible.
Do not speak over anyone. Speak clearly and slowly to ensure you are heard by everyone.
