Icon About This Course

Notice can be tricky to establish, and a client’s testimony can trigger a fatal summary judgment motion. Attorneys must have different strategies as no two clients or cases are the same. This program provides a guide for attorneys when conducting depositions in premises liability cases and other ways to improve advocacy.

Attorneys will learn what types of defective conditions are more likely to lead to a finding that Defendants had notice of a defective condition and how to depose a Defendant and prep their Plaintiff for a premises liability deposition. This will include how different defects require different strategies. Attendees will also learn how to prepare for meetings with clients, along with practical tips for handling difficult clients.

This course is designed for attorneys with some experience. Any attorneys who practice in civil litigation are encouraged to attend this program.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Assess how to prepare a client.
  2. Examine how to conduct a Defendant’s Premises EBT.
  3. Explore what speaks to “notice” in various types of defects.
