Consumer Law Attorney Dave Maxfield Uses MindMeister to Prepare for Depositions

Dave Maxfield, Consumer Protection Law, a seasoned consumer law attorney and former chair of his bar’s Consumer Law section, faced the challenge of collecting, organizing and presenting large volumes of case information—especially when preparing for depositions. To streamline that work he adopted the MindMeister mind mapping platform, using it to capture evolving facts, questions and exhibits in one accessible place.

Using MindMeister, Dave builds branching deposition maps, links Dropbox exhibits, and searches maps by keywords and icons to find relevant topics in seconds; he accesses maps on his iPad during depositions for quick reference. The result: faster, more organized preparation, a measurable 5–6× improvement in recall through visual maps, and significant time savings when turning sprawling case material into a compelling courtroom strategy—thanks to MindMeister.
