Depositions are commonly used in civil lawsuits to gather information from witnesses or parties involved in the case. They are a crucial part of the discovery process, allowing both parties to obtain testimony and evidence for the trial. While not always necessary, they can be valuable in building a strong case or negotiating a settlement.
