Depositions in the Age of AI: The Competitive Edge You Cant Afford to Ignore

A growing number of litigators are quietly using AI to prepare sharper deposition outlines in a fraction of the time, surface contradictions across testimony in real time, and generate impeachment-ready analysis before opposing counsel even orders the transcript. The rest are still doing it the way they learned in their first year, and the gap is widening fast. Karl Seelbach, litigator, Doyle & Seelbach firm owner, and co-founder of the AI deposition platform Skribe.ai, pulls back the curtain on the specific AI workflows reshaping how top litigators handle every phase of the deposition. Rather than offering a theoretical overview, Karl draws on over two decades of courtroom experience to demonstrate exactly how AI applies to the work you're already doing: building outlines, prepping witnesses, catching inconsistencies live, analyzing transcripts after the fact, and automating the follow-up work that used to eat entire weekends. See real demonstrations, get specific prompts you can use with tools you already have, and learn the ethical guardrails every attorney needs to understand, including confidentiality obligations, the limits of AI-generated work product, and where professional judgment remains irreplaceable. Whether you're AI-curious or already experimenting, you'll leave with an actionable playbook that puts you ahead of the curve.
