A: Your question is in workers compensation but belongs in Legal malpractice case. You have to file a lawsuit to engage in discovery such as a deposition.

A: to the last attorney, she would not need a legal malpractice attorney unless the defense attorney was representing the person posting the question. If not, its not a legal malpractice attorney. In fact, in my opinion you wouldn't be able to depose the defense attorney to get information about the person or entity you are involved in litigation with because their communications are confidential and do not legally need to be shared. May I ask why you want to depose a defense attorney? That could make it much easier to answer your question.
