Contracts, agreements, emails, messages, screenshots
Photos, videos, voice notes
Police reports, medical reports, invoices
Letters or notices you received
Any written communication with the other party
Lawyers build cases on evidence, not memory.
🗣️ 3. Your Actions So Far
What you have already done about the issue
Who you contacted
Any responses you received

To defend yourself?
To settle quietly?
Lawyers tailor strategy based on your desired outcome.

Anything the other side might use against you
