Elmhurst, Chicago, and Park Ridge Lawyers Providing Representation to Third Parties in Legal Cases
Have you been served with a subpoena, and you are not a party to the case? Are you the parent, significant other, caregiver, or some other third party to a divorce or other type of family law proceeding that is going to be deposed and needs representation? We can help you. We can defend your rights and represent you during these proceedings, including trial subpoenas and records subpoenas. We know how scary these processes can be, and we will protect your rights.
First, why were you served with this document? During a civil lawsuit or a criminal trial, the discovery phase of the proceedings will allow the parties to gather relevant information and ensure that they are fully prepared to address the legal issues involved in the case. Attorneys for both sides will use a variety of methods to obtain information, including depositions and subpoenas. These methods often require the involvement of third parties who may not be directly involved in the legal proceedings. After receiving a deposition or subpoena request, a person may be concerned about protecting their rights while ensuring that they comply with all of the legal requirements. As they determine the best ways to respond to these requests, they can consult with a skilled attorney, and if necessary, they can secure legal representation and protect against potential legal consequences.

Our trial lawyers have extensive experience in divorce and family law cases and other types of litigation, and we understand the procedures followed during the discovery process and in hearings and trials. We can answer questions about the rights and obligations that apply to third parties who receive these types of requests, and we can provide assistance to ensure that they comply with all requirements while protecting themselves against legal issues that may affect them in the future.

Protecting Your Rights in Depositions and Subpoenas
A deposition involves testimony provided by a witness in a legal case. It will take the form of an interview that is conducted outside of court, although the witness will be placed under oath and required to answer all questions fully and honestly. Depositions may be recorded, and video or audio recordings or transcripts of the interview may be presented as evidence during a trial.
Subpoenas are court orders requiring a person to turn over certain types of evidence or appear in court. Because these orders are issued by a judge, a person is required to comply with a request, and failure to do so may result in the person being held in contempt of court.
