The Future of Deposition Records: From Transcript to Searchable Intelligence

Mass tort teams are drowning in deposition transcripts, exhibits, and PDFs—yet critical testimony often remains locked in static documents that are difficult to search, compare, and reuse across a docket.

Disorganized exhibits and incomplete testimony tracking can also increase defensibility challenges, discovery disputes, and even sanctions exposure in high-stakes cases. This session explores how leading firms are modernizing deposition record management by moving from document storage to structured, searchable deposition knowledge. Attendees will learn emerging best practices for building depo libraries, organizing testimony by issue and theme, and using new approaches—including AI—to scale speed, consistency, and risk reduction across high-volume litigation.

Visuals in Voir Dire, Argument & Evidence; Building Your Closing Throughout the Case with Visuals

Lawyers have always used visuals at trial. But until recently lawyers were limited to using the chalkboard and the flip chart. Now we have amazing technology—like document cameras, Canva/PowerPoint, and AI—to create visuals that helps teach the jury what they need to know about the case. This lecture will teach you how to: (1) create trial ready visuals live in depositions; (2) use visuals (basic ones) in voir dire; (3) create visuals for opening to frame your case themes; (4) create visuals with witnesses live in trial; and (5) incorporate these visuals into your closing argument.

MTMP Opening Session: NOW is the Time to Diversify Your Practice
This panel will dive into the emerging role of technology companies as the next frontier in mass tort litigation. As traditional pharmaceutical and medical device cases become less common, litigation is increasingly targeting social media platforms, environmental companies, insurance companies, gaming companies, and app-based services whose design choices and growth strategies may contribute to widespread harm. Featuring attorneys actively leading major cases involving these companies, the session examines how plaintiffs’ lawyers are adapting legal theories, discovery strategies, and trial narratives to address issues such as social media addiction, child safety, platform accountability, concerns over water safety and insurance fraud—while also discussing what opportunities exist for attorneys who want to become involved in this rapidly evolving area of litigation.

Successful law firms understand the critical moments of any complex litigation come at the very beginning of every case with time tested and case savvy prelitigation investigation and science vetting. Learn how to avoid the pitfalls of not knowing all the facts of the case, including the background of your client, understanding the theory of liability, the statute of limitations, picking the right venue, and naming the proper and solvent defendants. Having a thorough understanding of how a defective product or environmental containment causes harm to your client is critical before spending thousands of dollars and countless hours on litigating a case that does not bring value to your clients and your firm.

MTMP Opening Session: NOW is the Time to Diversify Your Practice
This panel will dive into the emerging role of technology companies as the next frontier in mass tort litigation. As traditional pharmaceutical and medical device cases become less common, litigation is increasingly targeting social media platforms, environmental companies, insurance companies, gaming companies, and app-based services whose design choices and growth strategies may contribute to widespread harm. Featuring attorneys actively leading major cases involving these companies, the session examines how plaintiffs’ lawyers are adapting legal theories, discovery strategies, and trial narratives to address issues such as social media addiction, child safety, platform accountability, concerns over water safety and insurance fraud—while also discussing what opportunities exist for attorneys who want to become involved in this rapidly evolving area of litigation.
