Review (PDF) Preparing For Your Civil Deposition: A Guide For The Law Enforcement Professional (Law Enforcement Professional Enhancement Series) (Volume 1)
Whether you are a defendant officer in the midst of a civil lawsuit, or simply proactive, the information in this book is vital to your career survival. Comprehensive step-by-step advice helps you prepare for and testify in civil and criminal depositions. This information is based upon the advice of some of the best police civil defense attorneys in the business combined with the experiences and lessons-learned of an expert witness with over twenty years of defending officers in civil and criminal courts. Without exception, officers who prepare well for their depositions tend to do well facing even the best attorneys, and thus assist in the defense of their cases. Those who fail to ready themselves rarely do as well, and sometimes literally lose what was a winnable case for themselves and their agencies by giving terrible deposition testimony. Bottom line: the result and effectiveness of deposition testimony is largely up to you, the officer. Wandering through this civil-litigation wilderness without a guide can be detrimental to many aspects of your life. That’s the reason for this book; so that good officers who reasonably do the job the way they are trained and who put themselves in harm’s way for others can have a step-by-step process to prepare for their day in court. Mr. Williams is a highly sought after police procedures expert witness who has seen the best and the worst of deposition testimony over the past two decades. His down-to-earth, nuts and bolts approach makes for an easy read as well as a useful how-to guide through the complicated, and sometimes murky world of the U.S. judicial system.
