What is a Deposition in Workers' Comp?

If you've been injured at work and just received a notice of deposition in the mail, you might be wondering what this is.

A deposition is a formal, out-of-court procedure where the defense attorney and your attorney, along with the claim adjuster, question the issue. They are best described as question-and-answer sessions. Because of this, you have the right to have your own Workers' Compensation attorney represent you and your case at the deposition.  

In this video, Bilal Kassem, Esq., explains what a deposition is and what you can expect from a deposition. Make sure to watch until the end!

Can the insurance company depose me more than once? You said in lieu of trial. Is this an indicator that they are considering settlement over trial? (I have not been paid anything so far because the employer denied liability.)
