Arranging International Deposi...

Arranging for depositions abroad is not the same as arranging for depositions in the US. In many countries, such as Germany and China, voluntary examinations of witnesses by a foreign attorney are prohibited. And even in countries where voluntary depositions are allowed, they are not always enforceable in court.

At LLS, we have more than 35 years of experience arranging for international depositions. Our attorneys and paralegals are familiar with country-specific restrictions and requirements, mitigating the risk of enforcement issues.

Trust the professionals at LLS to arrange your next foreign deposition from securing a venue and court reporter to arranging for transportation and interpreting services.

Rely on LLS to:

Secure an appropriate venue
Provide videographer & interpreting services
Schedule a court reporter
Arrange transportation from the airport to the venue
Facilitate payment of statutory fees
Provide a transcript of proceedings
Arrange secure video depositions where legally permissible

Why Work with LLS?

Many companies and individuals claim that they can schedule and perform voluntary depositions abroad in much the same way they arrange for depositions in the US. The reality is, many of these companies are preforming illegal depositions that fail to adhere to the host country’s restrictions resulting in depositions that comprise litigation.

In extreme cases, you may be forced to re-do the entire trial, costing you tens of thousands of dollars. Consult with LLS before arranging your next international deposition. Submit an online inquiry here.
