Professional Info

Professional Bio My name is Ned O’Brien and I am the Founder and Lead CLVS of C3 Depos, LLC, a Chicago-based legal video and technology team specializing in deposition and litigation support. As an NCRA-certified Legal Video Specialist (CLVS) with nearly a decade of experience, I’ve built a small but dedicated team of NCRA-certified professionals and OnCue-trained exhibit tech specialists who bring precision, professionalism, and composure to every assignment — whether in person, remote, or hybrid. Our experience spans the full range of legal video and tech services, including: ● Deposition video recording, editing, and transcription synching ● Exhibit presentation using OnCue and ExhibitView ● Multi-camera and specialty depositions (PIP, hearing- and vision-impaired, and exhibit-intensive doctor depositions) ● Advanced video editing services ● Day-in-the-life and settlement video production (including multiple projects with attorney Kathleen Zellner) ● Arbitration and war room setup and support ● CME (Compulsory Medical Evaluation) recording ● Inspections and Claim videos for Insurance, Accidents, Crime, and More ● Part 107 Certified Drone footage for Inspections and Claims ● Combined remote video and exhibit tech services Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with many of the most respected firms in the legal industry – including Kirkland & Ellis, Winston & Strawn, McDermott Will & Emery, Clifford Law Offices, Latham & Watkins, and many more – often on high-profile, multi-week matters that demand meticulous attention to detail, confidentiality, and adaptability. Having these experiences from the very beginning of my career has taught me the importance of maintaining the highest standard of professionalism on every job, regardless of its size or duration – a value that remains central to how C3 Depos operates today. Whether supporting a single remote deposition or coordinating a complex, multi-camera exhibit-heavy proceeding, my team and I pride ourselves on seamless collaboration, technical mastery, and an unwavering commitment to quality and a quick turnaround. Above all, we prioritize our clients and their needs, ensuring satisfaction in every case we handle. We’d welcome the opportunity to discuss how C3 Depos can support your litigation needs and become a trusted partner in your deposition workflow.
