Let’s say that you are involved in a car accident in San Francisco. You decide to hire a San Francisco injury attorney like myself. And you file a lawsuit against the responsible party. Then yes, your deposition will be taken by the attorneys for the party that you sued.
A deposition is essentially when the other side gets an opportunity to ask you questions about your injuries, the car accident in which you were injured, and your background as well. You will be under oath and you may even think that many of the questions the other attorney asks are silly, ridiculous, or simply none of their business. However, your personal injury attorney will be present and able to make objections and consult with you when necessary.
There are many aspects to a lawsuit. Depositions are only one part. You should speak with your attorney about all the things you can anticipate if you decide to file a lawsuit due to your injuries.
