Your answers will be typed into a booklet and you will later be asked to sign it and have it notarized, indicating that you agree those answers are what you previously said, and that they are true. Y0u will return the booklet to your attorney's office
If that booklet, or as it is called, transcript, does not accurately reflect what you said, changes can be made. Instructions concerning how you make changes and where you are to sign will accompany the transcript. Once signed, however, your testimony is almost "written in stone," and cannot be changed at a later date without causing a situation that may not help your case.
Always try to return to the place where the accident happened right before your deposition to help refresh your memory.
If you have questions about being deposed, write them down so you will remember to ask your attorney when you meet with him or her before the deposition. Naturally, you can also call your attorney's office at any time beforehand.
