    The Remote Witness: Preparing for a Trial or Hearing

    In the fourth episode of his "Remote Witness Preparation" podcast series, "The Remote Witness: Preparing for a Trial or Hearing," litigation attorney Dan Small shares guidance for preparing witnesses to appear in a remote trial or hearing. Many witnesses develop their ideas about trials from movies and television, but a remote trial is a far cry from what's portrayed on the screen. The camera and physical separation make the environment especially strange for a witness, and can lead them to treat the situation more casually than is appropriate. Mr. Small outlines several areas to cover with witnesses so they understand the formality of the proceeding, communicate effectively during it and remain focused throughout it.

However, if given the option to postpone a deposition until it can be conducted live, counsel must consider several factors, such as cost and the quality of testimony. Once the decision to go remote has been made, no one should ease up on the normal rules of preparation simply because everyone is not in the same room. Logistics issues, proper communication, language barriers and errata sheets all must be covered by witnesses and counsel.
