nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This Guide was created as a practical resource to help attorneys prepare for and improve their deposition skills, both before and after training. It focuses on four main goals: controlling the record, gathering all relevant information from the witness, securing clear admissions, and effectively handling objections. Rather than being theoretical, the Guide is based on real-world experience and emphasizes understanding the reasoning behind effective questioning techniques. It highlights ten common problem areas in depositions, starting with the challenge of balancing concise, record-focused questions with a more conversational approach to uncover information. The middle sections develop core skills, such as asking strong follow-up questions and handling specific scenarios, including discussions and documents. Later sections show how to turn gathered information into firm admissions. Throughout, examples and contrasting 'bad' scenarios illustrate both effective strategies and common mistakes, reinforcing best practices. Some examples are interconnected to show how a single line of questioning can evolve-from uncovering a conversation to authenticating documents and securing admissions-while others stand alone. Overall, the Guide is designed to build practical skills and improve deposition performance through clear examples and explanations.…

About the Author
Suellen Wideman is an experienced trial and appellate attorney, a former Senior Assistant Attorney General in Maryland, and a nationally active teacher of advocacy skills. For more than 25 years, she worked with Maryland regulatory agencies on health care issues, giving daily input that helped shape Maryland's evolving health care system and expand access to quality care for all state residents. Wideman successfully led Maryland's first prosecution for "unprofessional conduct in the practice of medicine" against an obstetrician/gynecologist who engaged in "consensual" sexual relationships with patients, and she played key roles in defending Maryland's physician-discipline regulatory framework and the state's expansion of cardiac surgery services. Her public-interest commitment was recognized with the Jennifer Lauterbach Robbins Award for "her zealous advocacy in the public interest and for her willingness to litigate any issue with intensity, creativity, and perseverance." She sharpened her teaching skills as a public defender in Nashville, Tennessee, and now lectures extensively on a wide range of lawyering topics, including fact investigation, negotiations, depositions, motions practice, supervisory skills, and trial advocacy. Wideman co-authored State v. Graves, a telemarketing fraud prosecution case file used by the National Association of Attorneys General for nationwide advocacy training, and she has led well over 100 advocacy skills programs for a national legal skills training provider. A native of Georgia, Wideman currently lives in Sewanee, Tennessee. She holds an LL.M. from Yale Law School and a J.D. from the University of Tennessee College of Law.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
