FAQs - Deposition Videography

Please reach us at office@lexhd.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Is video deposition admissible in court?

Yes, video depositions are admissible in both state and federal courts when properly noticed and recorded in accordance with the applicable rules of civil procedure. For federal cases, Rule 30(b)(3) and Rule 32 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure govern the use and admissibility of depositions, including video. The recording must be made under oath, with proper notice to all parties, and handled by a qualified, impartial operator — such as a certified legal videographer.

What are the benefits of recording a deposition on video versus relying on the transcript alone?

A video deposition offers significant advantages over a written transcript alone:

Visual Credibility: Jurors and judges can see facial expressions, body language, tone, and hesitation — all of which can affect credibility.
Impeachment Power: Playing back a prior inconsistent statement is far more powerful on video than reading it from a page.
Nonverbal Cues: Pauses, sarcasm, evasive answers, or visible discomfort can be lost in text but captured clearly on camera.
Trial Prep: Attorneys often use video to prepare for trial, evaluate witnesses, and develop case themes.
Remote Participation: Video clips can be presented at trial even if the witness is unavailable.

What is required to properly notice a video deposition?

To record a deposition by video, the deposition notice must:

State that the deposition will be audio-visually recorded.
Include the name and address of the legal videographer or videography company, if required by local rule.
Provide proper advance notice to all parties (typically under Rule 30(b)(3) or state equivalents).
LexHD works with law firms to ensure every deposition is noticed correctly, helping avoid procedural objections to admissibility.

Who operates the camera, and must they be certified?

The deposition must be recorded by a neutral, qualified operator — often a Certified Legal Video Specialist (CLVS) trained by the National Court Reporters Association (NCRA) or an equivalent state-certified videographer. LexHD only uses professionally trained legal videographers who understand deposition protocol, court admissibility standards, and chain-of-custody procedures.

Can we schedule a remote or hybrid video deposition?

Absolutely. LexHD offers:

Remote depositions conducted entirely via Zoom, WebEx, or other platforms.
Hybrid depositions where some parties appear in person while others join remotely.
We provide full technical coordination, backup recording streams, and secure HD video files. All participants are captured clearly, with time-stamping and proper legal formatting for admissibility.

What happens if there is a technical issue during the video deposition?

LexHD videographers come equipped with redundant systems to prevent data loss:

Dual-camera and dual-audio setups
Backup recording devices
On-site monitoring and remote tech support for virtual sessions
In the rare event of disruption, our operators document the issue on the record, pause the session if necessary, and follow chain-of-custody protocols to preserve the integrity of the footage.

How are the video files delivered and in what formats?

LexHD delivers deposition video files:

In standard MP4 or MPEG-2 formats, compatible with all major trial presentation platforms (TrialDirector, OnCue, Sanction, etc.)
With synchronized transcript files upon request (see Question 10)
Via secure cloud delivery, encrypted USB, or physical media depending on your preference
All files are clearly labeled, time-coded, and formatted according to court standards.

Can LexHD provide transcript syncing?

Yes. Our transcript syncing services align your certified court reporter transcript with the exact time-coded video. This allows:

Fast clip creation
Keyword search functionality
Easy highlighting of key testimony
Synced files are crucial for creating impeachment clips, trial exhibits, and settlement presentations.

Can video depositions be used at trial if the witness is unavailable?

Yes. Under Federal Rule 32(a)(4) and most state equivalents, video deposition footage can be played in court if:

The witness is deceased
Outside the subpoena power of the court
Ill, incapacitated, or otherwise unavailable
Courts often prefer video over reading transcripts, especially in cases involving key witnesses or emotional testimony.

How does LexHD maintain neutrality and legal compliance during a deposition?

Our videographers:

Do not engage with attorneys or witnesses beyond procedural coordination
Follow scripted introductions and maintain impartial tone and demeanor
Ensure proper chain-of-custody and data handling
Adhere to jurisdictional rules, including swearing-in procedures, time stamping, and disclosure requirements
LexHD prioritizes professionalism, discretion, and neutrality in every proceeding to ensure your video record is admissible, reliable, and beyond reproach.

FAQs - Remote & Hybrid Depositions

Please reach us at office@lexhd.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

What is the difference between a remote and a hybrid deposition?

A remote deposition is conducted entirely via a virtual platform (e.g., Zoom, WebEx), where all participants — including attorneys, witnesses, court reporters, and videographers — appear from separate locations.

A hybrid deposition combines in-person and remote participation. For example, the deponent and videographer may be in a physical office, while attorneys or the court reporter appear virtually.

LexHD supports both formats with full video coverage, platform moderation, and recording safeguards.

Are remote and hybrid depositions legally admissible in court?

Yes. Remote and hybrid depositions are admissible under Federal Rule 30(b)(3) and most state equivalents, provided:

All parties receive proper notice
The witness is placed under oath by a qualified officer
The video and audio are clear, complete, and unaltered
LexHD ensures all remote sessions meet procedural and technical standards for admissibility, including backup audio capture and redundant cloud storage.

Can the witness still be placed under oath remotely?

Yes. Most jurisdictions now allow remote oath administration by a certified court reporter or notary, as long as:

The witness’s identity is confirmed
The proceedings are clearly recorded
All parties consent to the format
LexHD works with licensed court reporters to swear in witnesses remotely in compliance with state law, including California, New York, Texas, Florida, and others.

What platform does LexHD use to host remote and hybrid depositions?

LexHD utilizes Zoom for Legal, WebEx, or client-preferred platforms, and provides:

Secure meeting hosting
End-to-end encryption
Waiting room and breakout room controls
Spotlighting of witnesses for optimal video capture
We also integrate redundant local recording and cloud-based backups to preserve the record with complete chain-of-custody compliance.

What happens if a participant loses connection or has technical difficulties?

LexHD provides:

Dedicated technical support
Live platform monitoring
Auto-reconnect options
Redundant local recordings at multiple endpoints
If a key participant drops, we pause the proceeding, make a note on the record, and resume only once full connection integrity is restored. No part of the testimony is lost.

Is the video quality from a remote deposition good enough for court?

Absolutely. LexHD records in HD (1080p) or higher, capturing:

The witness’s facial expressions
Audio with minimal compression
Time-stamped video for legal presentation
Our recordings are formatted for trial playback and compatible with all litigation software. With professional lighting and audio coaching, even remote footage meets evidentiary standards.

How are exhibits presented in remote or hybrid formats?

LexHD offers multiple exhibit handling options:

Digital exhibit sharing via screen share or secure file transfer
Pre-loaded digital exhibit folders shared with the court reporter
LexHD moderator-led presentation, where we manage and present each exhibit live on screen
We ensure smooth presentation, page marking, and annotation capabilities in real-time — all recorded clearly on video.

Can we include interpreting services or multiple camera angles in remote/hybrid settings?

Yes. LexHD can coordinate:

Simultaneous interpretation via dual-channel audio
Multiple video feeds (e.g., separate witness and attorney views)
Real-time captioning if required by court or ADA compliance
All features are integrated and time-coded into the final deliverables.

What security measures are in place for remote depositions?

LexHD ensures every deposition is:

Encrypted end-to-end
Protected with meeting passcodes and waiting rooms
Hosted on paid, business-grade platforms
Monitored by a trained videographer or moderator
No third-party recordings, file access, or platform vulnerabilities are allowed. We maintain full control over the session to protect confidentiality and evidentiary integrity.

LexHD delivers all remote/hybrid deposition videos:

In MP4 format (or per your specifications)
With time-stamping, title slates, and optional transcript syncing
Via secure cloud transfer, encrypted drive, or physical media
Each file is thoroughly reviewed for quality, labeling accuracy, and legal formatting. Our goal is to provide you with a video record that is not only admissible — but strategic.

IMEs - Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at office@lexhd.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Why should an Independent Medical Examination be recorded on video?

IME videography provides a neutral, objective record of the examination process — protecting both the examinee and the legal team from disputes over what occurred. It documents:

Physician conduct
Examinee compliance
The duration, thoroughness, and scope of the exam
This footage is particularly useful in personal injury, medical malpractice, product liability, and employment law claims where IME bias, omissions, or inconsistencies may later be challenged.

Is IME videography admissible in court?

Yes, when recorded properly. IME video is often used to:

Impeach the IME physician’s report or trial testimony
Demonstrate discrepancies between what was documented and what actually occurred
Support or refute claims of bias, misconduct, or exam irregularities
LexHD ensures every IME video is captured in compliance with court rules, maintaining chain-of-custody integrity and strict neutrality for admissibility.

Will the physician or opposing counsel object to having the IME recorded?

Possibly — but attorneys have legal strategies to secure recording rights. Courts often permit IME videography when:

The plaintiff is not fluent in English, has mental/physical vulnerabilities, or the case involves emotional trauma
There’s a history of bias or prior disputes involving the physician
LexHD works with your team to coordinate the logistics and ensure minimal disruption, even in contested settings.

Can the videographer remain discreet during the exam?

Yes. LexHD videographers are trained to:

Operate silently, without interaction or interference
Position cameras for clear, full-body framing from entry to exit
Maintain complete neutrality and comply with any physician-imposed procedural limits (e.g., no zooming, fixed position)
Our goal is to protect the record — not influence it.

What parts of the IME are recorded?

LexHD documents the entire examination, including:

Arrival and registration
Intake conversations and introductions
Physical assessments and verbal questioning
Dismissal or exam conclusion
We do not pause or selectively record unless required by court order or agreed stipulations. Every moment is time-stamped and secured.

Does LexHD offer multi-camera angles or audio enhancements?

Yes. Upon request, LexHD can provide:

Multi-angle camera setups for greater spatial context
Lapel or ambient mics to ensure both parties are clearly heard
Audio normalization and enhancement for clarity during soft-spoken interactions
These enhancements are optional but often critical in high-value or contentious litigation.

How is the footage stored and delivered?

LexHD stores all IME recordings using redundant, encrypted systems and delivers footage via:

Secure cloud-based transfer
Encrypted external drives
Chain-of-custody-certified physical media
Files are delivered in MP4 or other litigation-friendly formats, labeled with precise date/time metadata and formatted for TrialDirector, OnCue, Sanction, or standard playback.

Can LexHD provide a transcript or synced version of the IME recording?

Yes. Upon request, we offer:

Verbatim transcript production from the video
Transcript syncing, allowing for keyword search, clip creation, and annotated playback
This is especially useful if the IME is later challenged in court or cross-examined during trial.

Is it legal to record the IME without consent from the examining physician?

This depends on jurisdictional rules and the terms under which the IME was ordered. In many states, video recording is allowed with proper notice. Some courts may require:

A protective order
Mutual agreement between parties
Judicial approval in high-stakes matters
LexHD always defers to legal counsel for authority and follows documentation protocols as directed.

How does LexHD maintain neutrality and avoid influencing the IME process?

LexHD videographers:

Remain entirely silent and hands-off during the exam
Do not engage in conversation, correction, or commentary
Follow a strict protocol for camera placement, framing, and file handling
We are not advocates — we are neutral observers focused on capturing an accurate and admissible video record that holds up under cross-examination and judicial scrutiny.
