In this simulation course, you will learn how to take and defend depositions. The class will be led by United States Magistrate Judge Sunil Harjani, along with a group of adjunct professors drawn from a variety of litigation practice experiences in Chicago. Each student will be assigned a role as attorney for the plaintiff or defendant. You will be taking or defending a portion of a deposition nearly every week in this class. This class will particularly benefit students contemplating a litigation practice after graduation.
