Video can be a
powerful tool in
building a
successful case to
present i n court. This tool can be
used in impeachment
by showing
contradictions of
testimony taken in
depositions. The
video taping of a
deponent shows the
non-verbal cues such
as nervousness,
agitation, fear, or
smug satisfaction.
“If a witness is
important enough to
be called to appear
at a trial but
cannot attend, the
BEST
solution is a
videotape
deposition.”
Trial isn’t the
only place to use
video; it can also
be used in
settlement hearings,
arbitrations, and
any other place
where additional
persuasive evidence
would help.
