Small Claims Applications
Small claims matters may be designed to be accessible to people without attorneys, but organizing the paperwork, evidence and history of a dispute can still be overwhelming. Resolve WNY provides client-directed administrative and organizational support to help individuals prepare their own small claims materials.
How We Can Help
Depending on your needs, support may include:
• Organizing the facts and history you provide
• Creating a chronological timeline of events
• Transcribing client-provided information onto publicly available forms
• Organizing contracts, receipts, invoices and payment records
• Organizing photographs, messages, emails and other supporting records
• Creating exhibit indexes and organized evidence packets
• Helping identify missing administrative information or records you may want to gather
• Organizing correspondence related to the dispute
• Administrative filing support
• Creating a hearing-preparation binder or organized document packet
• Helping you develop questions to take to an attorney when legal advice is needed
Organizing Your Evidence
A small claims matter can involve information spread across months or years of receipts, messages, photographs, estimates, contracts and other records.
Resolve WNY can help turn that information into an organized chronology and supporting document set so you can more easily understand and present your own information.
Preparing for Court
Resolve WNY can help you organize the materials you intend to bring with you, including timelines, exhibits and supporting documentation.
We can also help you practice explaining the factual history of the dispute in a clear, organized way. You remain responsible for deciding what you want to say, what evidence you want to present and how you wish to pursue your matter.
