Our firm has a significant advantage in providing deposition, trial and discovery information to the attorney. Our engineers have extensive experience in several state department of transportation's and have helped to defend them in numerous litigation matters. Depositions are a unique part of the tort litigation process. After many years of depositions, we can not only assist in providing questions for your deponents, we feel comfortable in being prepared to answer questions while being deposed.
