A practical tool / No account needed
Take better questions into your first conversation.
Choose the legal-service topic, select the questions you need and print a plan to use with each office. Keep personal documents and the answers in your own private records.
This tool uses topic choices and checkboxes only. It does not ask for your case details, send an enquiry or save a private file. Selections clear on reload.
01 / Choose the questions
What do you need to ask?
02 / Gather what you have
Prepare an index, then ask what to send
- Broad incident setting, location and date for the office's intake process.
- Existing claim correspondence, decisions and notified dates.
- An index of reports or records you already have.
- Details of any existing representation or fee agreement.
- Access and communication needs for the consultation.
Keep the index in your own private notes. Ask each office for its intake and secure document process before sharing material.
03 / Your enquiry plan
Personal injury: questions for first contact
0 of 6 questions selected.
Select the questions above to create your plan. You can then print it or save it as a PDF using your browser.
Keep these tasks separate when asking about scope
- Initial claim assessment. Is further investigation required before acceptance?
- Evidence and negotiation. Who authorises and funds reports and external work?
- Proceedings or later stage. What changes in fees, expenses and responsibility?
Record the office’s answer privately
