I was deposed with my dog bite case. The dog owner was there with his lawyer also. I just told the truth as I remembered. My lawyer prepped me also, reminded me to say "yes" or "no" and DON'T speak unless asked a question. No head nods. I convinced myself to stay strong. It was emotional. There were times I wanted to cry or interrupt the defendant, but of course I didn't. I sat at a huge table and was able to squeeze my lawyer's thigh under the table, (really) when I felt myself starting to spaz. (I had to call his wife and explain his bruises!!! )

I'm like you, I worry. Take a deep breath. Your "ex" won't be able to talk back to you. You'll be fine. I looked at it as "what right is right and justice will prevail". And it did. HUGS
