More Than Depositions
In this day and time you'd think trial attorneys were taking full advantage
of the power of video to build, present and win cases. But a majority don't.
Why? Probably because you don't understand how valuable video is to your
profession. Probably because you don't know how to make a video. Probably
because you think you can't afford it. But the real question is, can you afford
NOT to have it?
Video is a powerful medium. It is intimate. People relate to it. With video you
can literally bring the scene of the crime or the damages claimed into the
courtroom. It has been proven that video saves time and money.
The most common use of video in the legal profession is the use of videotaped
evidence. Videotaped evidence includes but is not limited to: depositions,
scenes of incidents, proof of damages, proof of insurance fraud, surveillance
videos, inconsistencies in testimonies, video wills, mock trials and
preconstruction surveys. Ease of use and low cost of video plus the addition of
audio and the availability of immediate projection make video the medium of
choice in the modern courtroom.
Rule 30 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Federal Rules of
Evidence control how video is used in the court system. All states have adopted
either all or most of the three or four versions of Rule 30.
Legal video goes far beyond depositions. Trial attorneys are also using video
during their opening statements and their closing arguments. All the different
types of legal video are effective tools that play major roles in convincing
juries to make a favorable verdict. Nothing is more effective than letting a
jury hear the evidence and SEE it first hand in graphic detail.
The uses of video in the legal profession are unlimited. Savvy attorneys know
that a properly trained and certified legal Videographer is a powerful ally when
it comes to building, presenting and winning cases.
Video eliminates the confines of time and space. By videotaping evidence the
entire jury can view it at the same time removing the necessity of passing
pictures throughout the jury distracting them from the testimony that is going
on at the same time and it also eliminates the necessity of expensive "blow ups"
of documents, pictures, charts, etc.
