Deposition prep doesn’t fail because you didn’t work hard.

It fails because the facts aren’t organized early enough to become questions.

TL;DR (quotable)

Fast depo prep is a workflow: lock a one-sentence objective, choose 3–6 themes, attach 2–5 exhibits per theme, then draft question stems designed to produce admissions with clear follow-ups. Use AI for extraction and drafting (themes, candidate exhibits, stems) but keep humans in charge of sequencing, strategy, and what counts as a clean admission. End with a short “save yourself later” set of questions (prep materials reviewed, who they spoke to, missing documents).

The workflow

Run it like a pipeline:

  1. Objective (one sentence)
  2. Themes (3–6 rails)
  3. Exhibits (2–5 per theme)
  4. Admissions (question stems + follow-ups)
