Witness Preparation Simulator
Witness Preparation
Rehearse the questions a witness is likely to face, before they face them.
Paste the witness statement and the coach generates practice questions, then responds to typed answers. Useful for accustoming a witness to question form and to the difference between answering and arguing.
Preparation must not become coaching to give a particular account. A witness's obligation is to tell the truth; the goal is familiarity with process, not a rehearsed script.
How to use it
- 1Paste the witness statement.
- 2Work through the generated practice questions.
- 3Type answers and review the feedback on clarity and directness.
What it does not do
- Not a substitute for advice about the witness's obligations.
- Cannot simulate the pressure of a hearing.
- Does not know the other side's case theory.

Common questions
- Is witness preparation ethical?
- Familiarising a witness with procedure and question form is accepted practice. Suggesting what their evidence should be is not. Keep the distinction explicit with the witness.
