Abstract:
The worst mistake any attorney or physician involved in a case of medical negligence can make is to underestimate the opponent. The expert witness may know a lot more about a certain field than the physician, or at least a lot more about what the basic standard of care is for a particular case. This article discusses the importance of the deposition and delineates four aspects of the deposition that are of utmost importance in a medical negligence case.
