Nolo's Deposition Handbook

The Essential Guide for Anyone Facing or Conducting a Deposition

About this book

Take the fear and mystery out of your deposition

Nolo’s Deposition Handbook is a must-read for anyone taking, defending, or facing a deposition. You’ll find all the information and instructions you need, whether or not a lawyer is representing you.

Packed with concrete suggestions and examples, this book explains how to arrange a convenient date, prepare for the deposition, and respond to questions with confidence. Best of all, you’ll learn the three “golden rules” for answering questions, and the trick questions lawyers often use to influence testimony.

Nolo’s Deposition Handbook is an excellent resource for:

  • eyewitnesses
  • expert witnesses
  • parties to a lawsuit
  • people who represent themselves in court
  • lawyers, law students, and legal assistants, and
  • anyone involved in a deposition.

Written by two UCLA law professors and attorneys, Nolo’s Deposition Handbook provides all the information you need to sail through the deposition process with confidence.
