That is just what I meant, and why I insisted that I'm not angry, and I am trying to protect us.
See, even though we all mean well, and I am positive that Caladium has no ill intent, that when someone is "coached" it does come out that way - I used to "do" about 5 depositions a week, and you can really tell when someone is frankly just listening to the questions and answering, vs. someone who is "trying to tell a story" or trying to get "their story" out, which just doesn't read well to the applicant on a deposition later when the judges are either reading the transcript or watching a video.
There are general concepts that your attorney will explain to you, but then, you've got to try to answer without prompts. And "lists" may or may not be "ok" with your attorney - for instance, I do keep a list of my meds and doseages. But maybe another attorney (in a certain area of the country) wouldn't find that acceptable.
That is why we must be so careful when sharing our advice, as different areas are definitely different.
So these are just my attempts at helpful thoughts, and absolutely not an attack on any one person or answer, as again, I think I posted three times trying to help...
Thanks everyone and God bless.
