There is a great potential in your using the video technology as a Defense Tool. Here are some examples:
Experiments:
Any time you are defending a complicated case such as a products case, you could use the video technology to simplify your presentation to the jury. Would an experiment be helpful to show your client’s product could not possibly have caused the injuries alleged by the plaintiff? If so, the video will show the conflicts with the physical facts. Your expert can run the experiment to test the believability and accuracy of the plaintiff’s testimony.
Prior video of potential problem sites:
e.g. any mineral or petroleum firm that has a lawyer on staff or on a retainer would be wise to video record potential trouble spots prior to a disaster to show the measures that the firm went to prevent toxic spills.
Witness statements:
They can be very important in preparing a case for trial by refreshing memories. The video recorded statement allows a witness’s memory to be unaffected by the passage of time and lessens the possibilities of misunderstanding regarding what was said or meant.
Video Settlement Documentaries
Also known as “Mediation documentary”. They can as effectively be used as a defensive tool. Please refer to this documentary in “ADL aka Day-In-The-Life Documentary.” on this website.
