Common assignments

  • Fact, party, corporate-representative, expert, treating-provider, or damages depositions

  • Calendar conflicts where the firm can provide a complete witness and case brief
  • Assignments requiring objections, privilege protection, exhibit management, and testimony preservation

What Peach needs to evaluate the request

  • Notice, subpoena, pleadings, claims and defenses, and governing orders
  • Witness background, prior statements, discovery responses, and known credibility issues
  • Examination outline, case themes, admissions sought, and topics to avoid
  • Exhibits in intended order with clean and marked copies as needed
  • Privilege, confidentiality, protective-order, and speaking-objection instructions
  • Court reporter, videographer, interpreter, location, remote link, and scheduling contacts
Before you submit

Send enough nonconfidential information to identify the parties, venue, proceeding, date, expected role, urgency, and experience required. Do not send privileged strategy or sensitive personal information until conflicts and secure-transfer instructions are addressed.

Scope and expectations

Know what counsel can handle—and what still requires your direction.

Within an approved engagement

  • Taking or defending the deposition within the approved objectives
  • Making and responding to appropriate objections under applicable rules
  • Protecting privilege and addressing instructions not to answer when legally supportable
  • Managing exhibits and following the agreed examination or defense plan
  • Identifying material admissions, disputed testimony, follow-up discovery, and transcript needs

Important limitations

  • Assigned counsel needs enough preparation time and a sufficiently complete record
  • The primary firm should identify case strategy, sensitive facts, privilege concerns, and desired admissions
  • Counsel cannot promise that a witness will appear, answer fully, or provide desired testimony
  • Transcript ordering, expedited delivery, video, interpreters, travel, and vendor charges require advance coordination

After the assignment

What the requesting firm receives

The firm receives a concise but substantive deposition report addressing attendance, objections or privilege issues, key admissions and denials, important testimony, exhibits used, follow-up items, transcript needs, and any deadlines created by the deposition.
