Product Description

Join us for an introduction to the latest amendment to Massachusetts Rule of Civil Procedure 30(b)(4), effective as of February 1, 2025, which now permits as a matter of right the ability to take remote video-conferencing depositions. The amendment replaces Rule 30(b)(4) with a new rule, which delves into specific requirements for remote depositions, including the use of video-conferencing platforms, procedures for identifying attendees, and new rules on audio-visual recordings.

Participants gain practical insights into conducting remote depositions effectively, ensuring compliance with procedural requirements, and navigating potential challenges, such as handling exhibits remotely, and dealing with technical disruptions.

Don’t miss this opportunity to stay ahead in an increasingly “remote” legal landscape.
