Litigation Fundamentals | Initial Disclosures

Initial Disclosures is the topic of this episode of Litigation Fundamentals. Henry M. Quillian III walks the group through federal civil procedure rule 26a, which requires disclosures and procedures in trials. A main purpose of initial disclosures in federal court is to ensure each side is prepared for litigation and has in place all required information. Another aspect of initial disclosures is for judges to determine any conflict with hearing the case.
The group addresses timing considerations, reasonable excuses, how to handle confidentiality and also the importance of due diligence into rules in local districts. Other covered topics include computation of damages, personal injury cases and possibility of a settlement after initial disclosures. With a handful of scenarios presented, Henry reinforces the need to describe in detail all statutes, codes, regulations, legal principles and standard customs and uses in case law which are applicable to the action. Closely tied to this effort is securing a client retainer from the onset to support the above work.
