Yes, if that lawyer is the one demanding the deposition. The place of the deposition is at the choice of the lawyer calling for it. In practice though, the place of the deposition is usually a matter of custom in that particular legal community. In NJ, a defendant's lawyer will customarily schedule the plaintiff's dep at the plaintiff's lawyer's office and vice versa. This is out of courtesy between lawyers. Nothing prevents a defendant's lawyer from insisting the dep take place at his own office; however if he does not observe the usual courtesies, he should not expect to get the courtesies that he just denied the other lawyer back.
