QUESTION

Have my rights been violated if I am not allowed to go to the deposition?

Asked on May 18th, 2012 on Personal Injury - Mississippi
More details to this question:
Has my rights been violated? I had an attorney, who did not tell me a deposition would be taken for my first doctor until after it was done. He called me two hours before the second one, to tell me he was going. I strongly expressed I wanted to be there and he replied, "That would freak me out. No client has ever set in on deposition and if you come, I will not." I was given an altimatium of either you go or I will but not both. Did he violate my rights to be there by denying me to set in on the deposition?

Of course you have the right to be kept fully apprised of all activity in your case. If he had a strategic reason for preferring you not to attend, he should fully explain that to you.
