how to conduct witness interviews plaintiff law firms maximize results witness interview

In this video, the fifth and final one in my 5 part series that teaches you how to conduct successful witness interviews, that help your firm develop the information you need to maximize your client's results, while keeping litigation costs down. You'll learn about the nuts and bolts of the Q & A process, how to progress along the interview like a funnel from general info to specifics. How to take notes that capture what the witness says in the manner she says it, and how to get a signed statement or declaration to use to fight a summary judgment motion.

When it comes to witness interviews, the Q & A process is the final step in getting the information you need. Helping witnesses move through the interview process is the key to achieving a successful witness interview.

Knowing how to take notes that capture what the witness says in her words, and in the manner she says them is critical to interview success.

You'll learn whether it's better to take notes during an interview, or to record it. Methods of note taking that allow you to fully document what's been said. And how to get the witness to sign a handwritten statement, or declaration, for use to combat a summary judgment motion.

I consistently used these interview, note taking, and report preparation processes during my 30+ years of conducting civil plaintiff witness interviews in Los Angeles, CA and Albuquerque, NM.

I've taught hundreds of plaintiff attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants, and law school students how to conduct effective litigation investigations.

Now, you'll have the secrets of my success learned during the 12,000+ witness interviews that I conducted to help people going through a difficult situation get a favorable resolution in an easy to understand and follow video series.
