This was the worst investment I have made in a book in about 23 years. The author must have sold the first three editions to her 1) husband 2) boyfriend and 3)long lost friend who is now in jail for having testified according to the guidance provided in the book.

Absolutely no substance, no useful information other than basic information from the 30,000 foot level. Please accept this review from someone who has given multiple depositions and read hundreds.

Save your money or just email me and I will send you my copy. I am too embaressed to return it to Amazon thereby admiting I did not read the prior reviews.

This book is a joke! I read it to try to prepare for a malpractice deposition; after the deposition, I realized this book did not help me prepare in any way. Why doesn't the author get down to the nitty gritty? Plaintiff lawyers are manipulative and sleazy. The deposition process allows them to "broil" the defendant. The recorder did not interfere once (nor did my defense attorney) to control the vile antics of the plaintiff's attorney. My impression of the deposition process was that it was legalized witch-burning and I wasted my time reading this inane book. Don't buy it!

If you want a quick, easy-to-follow introduction to the deposition process, this book does a very good job of that. I've recommended it to many of my clients, and they all found it to be a great primer for helping them understand what happens at depositions. The book even offers some strategies for helping witnesses get through cross-examination. It's compact enough to read in a day, yet the information it contains is so on point that it completely demystifies the entire deposition procedure. Its numerous examples and sample transcript make it a good bet for anyone having to give a deposition.

This guide is a relatively small, spiral bound, 87 page pamphlet. It contains much useful information about what happens at a depostion, how to prepare yourself for a deposition, and answering the questions you will get at a deposition. It seems designed as an introductory guide for those who are either representing themselves or for those whose attorneys have not spent enough time explaining the process to them. This booklet should help calm your fears about the process. This guide is short enough that you can easily read it in an evening. It is written in plain English without the legal jargon. The author is a court reporter, not an attorney, but she clearly communicates a lot of basic information you need before going into a deposition.
