Law firms can access the whole world from one location using videoconferencing, saving time and money and increasing quality of life for attorneys who previously had to travel to do depositions. By using the latest in videoconferencing from Polycom, video depositions, arraignment hearings, oral arguments, settlement conferences and, in some cases, trials, can be done remotely with great benefit to clients and law firms alike.
Videoconferencing systems enable testifying witnesses to “appear” in court without traveling to the courtroom. Expert witnesses, prisoners, and various other witnesses provide the same testimony from remote locations as they could actually in the courtroom.
For trials involving prison inmates, videoconferencing technology not only saves time and money but increases safety as well. From the prison, prisoners see and hear everything that takes place in the courtroom and are able to answer questions posed to them by the presiding judges and lawyers as though they were physically in the courtroom. Videoconferencing in the court system offers significant cost savings and improved security by reducing the need for high-security prisoner transport.
