You've Scheduled Your Remote Deposition...now what?
By now you have probably participated in, or at least heard of remote depositions. Since the start of COVID-19 and our stay-at-home orders, the legal community has been forced to adapt to the changing rules limiting in-person meetings. While it seems like restrictions may be easing the virtual medium may remain an appealing option for some, especially those where geographical distance between attorneys and the deponent is a factor. Remote depositions may be a new form of our work, but the rules for preparation are not. The rules of testimony do not change when it comes to a remote deposition, but there are a few additional steps that should be considered when preparing for your next remote deposition with Huseby.
Here is what you should plan on after scheduling your HusebyConnect deposition.
Self-testing
Self-testing is a vital part of making sure you are fully prepared for the deposition. Conducting a self-test ensures your computer can support HusebyConnect. It will only take a few minutes to complete the test and should be completed a few days before the deposition. Click here to access our self-test. It will check your internet speed, speakers, and your background noise level.
Your HusebyConnect Account
Setting up your HusebyConnect account is simple. First, click on the activation link in your welcome e-mail from Huseby! Make sure flash is enabled and allowed on your browser. Next, create and confirm your new Huseby password. It really is that simple. You are now ready to log-in to your HusebyConnect account.
Electronic Exhibits
You might be wondering how and when you can pre-load your exhibits. Don’t worry, Huseby allows you to practice pre-loading exhibits as soon as you set up your HusebyConnect account. On the day of the deposition, you can preload exhibits up to one hour before the start time. If you need more time we’re here to help. Contact our Support Team at webconference@huseby.com to request the room be opened earlier.
