Consultation preparation

What to send before speaking with counsel

A focused first message helps a lawyer assess fit, urgency, conflicts, and likely next steps. Prepare:

  • a short summary of the issue and the outcome you want;
  • a dated timeline, including any filing, hearing, termination, or response deadline;
  • the key contract, notice, correspondence, registration, or decision documents;
  • the names and locations of the parties so the lawyer can check conflicts and jurisdiction; and
  • your preferred working language and whether you need an initial budget or fee estimate.

Do not send originals or unnecessary sensitive data before engagement terms and a secure document channel are confirmed.
