Examining Doctors at Deposition and Trial

July 2011

Examining Doctors at Deposition and Trial presented by National Speaker Larry J. Cohen

This program focuses on the problems lawyers face when they examine doctors in deposition and trial, with particular emphasis on offering practical solutions for overcoming those problems. Lawyers should leave this program with specific ideas about how they can more effectively implement their litigation goals when they offer or challenge medical witnesses. This will include recommendations for maximizing the effectiveness of expert and damages witness testimony, using demonstrative materials, and questioning witnesses during direct, cross, and redirect examination.

TOPICS INCLUDE:

Ten Red Flags to Watch Out for When Selecting Medical Expert Witnesses
Working Effectively with Medical Expert Witnesses
Using the Medical Deposition to Challenge Witnesses and Get Ready for Trial
Nine Ways to Educate the Jury Through Direct Examination
Five Ways to Get the Most out of Redirect Examination

MATERIALS INCLUDE:

An overview of discussions about techniques used to depose and examine doctors
Illustrative examination outlines
Checklists to use in preparing for the examination
Sources of information that can be used to challenge the foundation and credibility of doctors
A bibliography of reference and practice resources with emphasis on medical issues.

This program should be of greatest interest to civil litigation practitioners, and to criminal litigation practitioners to the extent they address medical issues in their cases.
