Binder, Moore And Bergman's Deposition Questioning Strategies And Techniques (American Casebook Series)

Provides descriptions and illustrations of effective strategies and techniques for taking and defending depositions. Designed to serve as a text for a 2-4 unit stand-alone depositions course or as a supplement to a civil pre-trial lawyering course. Devotes separate chapters to such fundamental skills as obtaining helpful answers to critical questions, undercutting harmful testimony, obtaining a deponent's version of significant events, and obtaining information from evasive deponents. Other chapters include topics such as responding to inconsistent or implausible testimony, overcoming opposing counsel's objections and obstructionist tactics, and preparing a client to be deposed.

This book should be required reading for any young associate learning how to take and defend depositions. The examples of the lines of questioning are terrific. Every concept is illustrated with multiple lines of questions. Other books may be better for instructing attorneys on how to prepare for a deposition or what to do after a deposition is completed, but there is no better book for teaching the mechanics of taking and defending a deposition. I cannot recommend this book enough.
