TrialDirector - Trial Preparation Checklist Steps for providing case materials to your trial presenter and/or trial presentation preparation group. INDEX – pretrial or trial index of materials to be presented. - Index should have a description of the file/document. - Index should have exhibit number and/or Bates per file. We can Bates and provide digital exhibit stickers.
DOCUMENTS: - All documents that are either digital and/or paper that may be used at trial. - Every document should have its own unique identifier, Trial Exhibit number, Bates Number – preferably both. - Mulitpage PDF preferred format for documents. MULTIMEDIA: - Depositions, Surveillance, Animations – Any format - Audio Files – Any format ***some files may need to be reformatted for TrialPresentation needs*** Our preference is to synchronize all videotaped depositions in-house

Photographs: - Photos - JPG or PDF We provide scanning services for photos, if needed. Please provide the index of photos for inclusion in your TrialDirector case file.
- PowerPoints – provide in .PPT format. We can also convert the files/slides to JPG to include into the case. The concept is for each file to be marked and identified digitally, so that each file and/or subfile can be called out immediately. Using a Bates number is the easiest way to do this. Videotaped deposition designations – Please provide us your list of designations and we will provide the video clips. If there is information that may or may not be used at trial, it is better to have the files on a portable hard drive at trial, so that they may be accessed and displayed. If you have any questions on any material, please do not hesitate to call or email me.
