A deposition on written questions is the cleanest way to get a nonparty's records into evidence: the custodian answers written questions under oath and produces the records with a business-records affidavit, so they come in self-authenticated. The mechanics — notice to every party, the subpoena, the service, the chasing — are what eat a paralegal's week. We run them for you, with the same servers and the same live tracking as every other Encore order.
You give us the custodian, the case, and the scope. We prepare the paperwork for counsel's signature, serve it, track it, and deliver.
Hospitals, clinics, physicians, imaging, therapy, and pharmacy — the core of any injury file, with itemized billing for the damages model.
Personnel files, wage records, and attendance for lost-earnings claims, workers' comp, and post-judgment garnishment.
Claim files, policies, recorded statements, and adjuster notes from carriers and third-party administrators.
Bank and brokerage statements, business records, and vendor files for collections, divorce, and commercial disputes.
Case caption, custodian, the records and date range, and any authorization on file. We draft the notice and questions for counsel's signature.
Notice served on every party, then the subpoena and questions served on the custodian once the notice period runs — both with proof of service.
Custodian contacted and tracked to the return date. Objections, fee demands, and "no records" responses flagged to you immediately.
Records and the sworn business-records affidavit delivered to all parties, ready to file and self-authenticated under Rule of Evidence 902(10).
Why the same vendor for the subpoena and the serve. Records retrieval fails at the hand-offs — a notice served late, a subpoena that never reached the right custodian, a follow-up nobody owned. One order, one job in ServeManager, and one team accountable from notice to production. Custodian, copy, and witness fees pass through at cost.
