Capability II
CLEAN
Your client's record is cleared before the defense runs it.
At a Glance
The Problem
Sitrick’s Wheel of Pain is running opposition research on your named plaintiffs from the moment the complaint is filed. They are looking for inconsistencies between what your clients told you and what they have said publicly. They find the problem. Then they use it — in a deposition, in cross-examination, in a planted news story.
In Practice
Case Reference
In a pharmaceutical mass tort with more than 9,000 named plaintiffs, VIS conducted pre-deposition digital audits on all bellwether candidates. The audit identified seven plaintiffs whose public social media contradicted their injury timeline. All seven were addressed before deposition. The defense found nothing at deposition that counsel had not already seen.
