Depositions play a cruicial role in influencing settlement negotiations, summary judgment motions and trial strategy.

Frank Dylewski participated in a webinar hosted by Financial Poise titled, “Doing Depositions / Taking & Defending Depositions.” Frank and other panelists covered the essentials of taking and defending depositions. Depositions factor into requests for additional discovery, summary-judgment briefing and settlement discussions. Because depositions often can make or break a case, proper preparation on both sides is critical.

An overview of the webinar, “Practical Tips for Taking and Defending Depositions,” can be read on The National Law Review website.

The webinar, “Taking and Defending Depositions,” is available on demand via The National Law Review YouTube channel.
