TrialPrep, LLC was founded in 2005 by Laurence Steffan, a trial attorney who needed an easy way to extract specific witness trial questions from a deposition transcript. As every attorney knows, trial preparation can be a highly manual, labor-intensive, and time-consuming process.

Laurence Steffan, an innovator of software for attorneys, has been a member of the California Bar and a trial attorney for over 30 years. In preparing for trial, Laurence would load a copy of the witness’ pretrial testimony into a program that at the time was called E-Transcript Binder. Laurence would copy and paste the questions he wanted to ask the witness again at trial, along with the answers, into WordPerfect. The problem was that the copy command would take the pleading line numbers with it, the margins and line spacing would be all wrong, and the action did not copy the page and line number where the question and answer could be found in the official transcript.
Laurence felt it should be very simple to create a software for attorneys that would do everything he wanted with a simple mouse click, i.e., copy the questions and answers, paste them into Word or WordPerfect along with the page and line numbers, the margins, and line spacing desired by the user, and omit the pleading numbers.
He also thought the concept was so simple that such a software for attorneys would be on the market any day. After waiting 15 years to no avail for someone to sell him the program, Laurence decided to develop it himself. Depo© is a product of Laurence’s imagination and concept and the ingenious programming skills of his partner, Patrick Brombach.
After a year in development (by other software engineers), Version 1 was released. With the expert help of Patrick, Version 2 was released a year later with substantial improvements. Depo© has been on the market now for three years. Depo© has no competition, as no other product does all that Depo© does. Depo© is copyrighted and its patent is pending.
