Review (PDF) The Effective Deposition: Techniques And Strategies That Work, Fourth Edition
The Effective Deposition will prepare you to successfully take, defend, and use the deposition to its greatest advantage. Advocates and law students have long relied on The Effective Deposition to get essential know-how for the most critical step in discovery. In this updated Fourth Edition, David Malone, Peter Hoffman and contributing author, Anthony J. Bocchino, again apply their expertise as attorneys and educators to bring you critical information and insight. They explain new discovery rules in evidence and civil procedure, and they discuss the impact of continuing technological developments, including e-discovery and digital transcription, on your practice. New to this edition is a chapter dedicated to Rule 30(b)(6) organization depositions--the most powerful and efficient discovery tool available in complex litigation. This edition also provides new and expanded material on using depositions in motion practice and trial and taking and using preservation depositions. Depositions remain a critical element of your practice, regardless of whether you face trial or alternative dispute resolution. With the increasing trend toward non-trial resolutions, depositions are being used more and more in motions, negotiated settlements, mediations, arbitrations, and dismissals. Be prepared for it all with The Effective Deposition.

This book was very helpful. I think that the chapters are written well so that if you need to concentrate on a specific aspect of a deposition, the chapter will give you insight without leaving you at a loss if you did not read the whole book from cover to cover. It also provides very good opening and closing paragraphs so that you understand what are the key takeaways.The frequent examples in the book are used over and over. So, when speaking about how to get past a difficult deponent/witness, they will use the same car accident facts, or another scene fact scenario. This is helpful because you get to see the differences between techniques, but it is also a little difficult if you need help deposing a witness with a different set of facts. Some more fact diversity would have been helpful.The quality of the book is nice, it is not flimsy for a softcover where you feel like the pages will bend. It is a wholesome sized book, while easy to hold.

Very effective
This was a fairly informative book which is best suited to young lawyers. There are some valuable tips for that group.
Didn't read a single page. Most ill-advised purchase I made in law school. The book may be great, but the teacher didn't even reference it in our practical skills class. I think he told us to buy the book because it makes the class seem more legitimate. At least I got the 1 hr credit.
