DEPOSITIONS 
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW 
ABOUT THEM.
What questions will be asked during a 
deposition? 
• What type of questions are going to be asked during 
deposition? 
• That is by far one of the most popular questions that 
clients ask and every time its different. 
• This depends on the type of injury claim you have. A 
deposition serves several purposes.
#1 
• It allows defense counsel to learn more about you 
than previously known just based on your medical 
records and bills and other supporting one-dimensional 
materials provided to them.
#2 
• It allows then so explore other alternative 
explanations for your claimed injuries and/or 
treatment.
#3 
• It allows them to assess your “presentation.” How 
well do you present? Are you credible, sincere, 
believable, composed. Will an arbitrator or jury like 
you?
Typically a depositions starts with defense 
counsel exploring your past. 
• They might explore you education, work history and family 
background. 
• This helps them assess your credibility. They might 
uncover prior accidents, injuries or conditions that they 
believe might relate to the injuries you’re claiming to have 
suffered in the subject accident. 
• Thereafter, they will delve into how the accident occurred, 
looking for consistencies and/or inconsistencies with any 
other reported format of the accident (police report, 
incident report, recorded statements, etc).
Next, they’ll go into your post-accident 
injuries and treatment. 
• Typically, they close with questions about your residuals 
and/or pain & suffering (all the ways your injuries 
adversely impacted your life) 
• As a Phoenix personal injury lawyer, depositions can be 
very time consuming and draining. It's always important to 
maintain your composure during deposition and make 
sure you are telling the truth. 
• This is just the tip of the iceberg as far as handling 
depositions, but it's a great start on how you should 
prepare.
The point of having a deposition is to give 
your side of the story. 
• Not only are there many steps to making sure you have the 
plan going into a deposition, but it can be critical in your claim. 
• Remember, having the right personal injury law firm in Phoenix, 
Arizona can truly make all the difference in your case. 
Experience matters. It's been proven time and time again. 
• A deposition can even lead to the litigation process where you 
will ultimately decide if what you are offered is enough or feel 
you wish to take your claim to trial. There are many different 
facets that need to be closely examined before any final 
decisions are made on your part.
Question? 
• Depositions can be complex, but working with the right 
personal injury law firm can truly make all the difference in 
your case. 
• Make sure you have the right law firm representing you.
