Question 1

What is included in per diem EBT preparation and coverage?

Accepted Answer

Preparation includes a deep dive into the Bill of Particulars, police and accident reports, medical records, and prior transcripts. Your attorney arrives one hour before the deposition for client preparation and professional presence coaching, with active advocacy during the deposition including detailed note-taking and form objections.

Question 2

What does the post-deposition reporting include?

Accepted Answer

By end of business day, you receive a summary of testimony including key admissions and problematic testimony, a witness assessment with jury appearance and credibility notes, scanned and marked exhibits, and next steps recommendations for case strategy.

Question 3

How much does per diem EBT deposition coverage cost in New York?

Accepted Answer

EBT coverage is billed as a flat engagement, with half-day and full-day rates available. An interpreter surcharge applies when an interpreter is required. Coverage is available across all five NYC boroughs plus Nassau, Suffolk, Orange, Putnam, and Rockland in person, and statewide for virtual depositions via Zoom or Teams. Rates are quoted on confirmation.

Question 4

What geographic areas are covered for per diem depositions?

Question 5

What is the difference between an EBT and a deposition?

Accepted Answer

In New York, the terms are interchangeable. EBT stands for Examination Before Trial, which is the formal name under the CPLR for what most jurisdictions call a deposition. Both refer to sworn, out-of-court testimony taken during the discovery phase of litigation.

Can you handle virtual depositions via Zoom or Microsoft Teams?

Yes. Virtual deposition coverage via Zoom and Microsoft Teams is available statewide. The same preparation, active advocacy, and same-day reporting standards apply to virtual depositions as to in-person appearances.
