What materials should attorneys provide before trial presentation preparation begins?

The more organized the materials arrive, the smoother preparation goes. Attorneys generally provide:

• Final exhibit lists and any pre-marked exhibits
• Deposition transcripts and corresponding video files
• Trial exhibit binders or digital exhibit folders
• Witness and testimony order, if finalized
• Any specific demonstratives or graphics already created

Even a rough outline of trial strategy helps shape how exhibits and video clips get organized. The earlier this information comes together, the more time there is to prepare it properly.
