How does discovery work in a civil case?

After a lawsuit is filed, both sides have the right to gather evidence before trial. The main tools are:

  • Interrogatories — written questions answered under oath
  • Document requests — emails, contracts, internal reports, financial records
  • Depositions — live, sworn testimony from witnesses and corporate representatives
  • Requests for admission — asking the other side to confirm or deny specific facts
  • Subpoenas — compelling third parties to produce records or testify

Discovery can force a corporation to hand over internal communications, expose what decision-makers knew, and reveal cover-ups. It's one of the greatest equalizers in civil litigation.
