Tools of Litigation
Summary
Even the simplest litigation is complex. As with most things the “devil is in the details.” In litigation this means that the facts and documents at issue are the most important factors in determining the outcome of your case. This article explains the specific tools that Ted Broomfield Law uses and your role in creating these tools.
Specifically, Ted Broomfield focuses on developing a , meaning a series of simple declarative sentences that start with a time stamp like “on January 1, 2025,” or between June 1, 2025 and September 30, 2025,” followed by a statement of fact.
Along with a Chronology, Ted Broomfield creates a Document List that identifies each document by title, date, which persons have any knowledge of that document, and what fact or facts that document pertains to.
Ted Broomfield, creates a list of people who have knowledge. This list includes either the person’s name and or title, like repair person, and as much of their contact information as possible. This list is then cross referenced against the chronology and document list.
The tools of a chronology, document list, and list of persons with knowledge are the heart and the backbone of your case. They take a lot of time. Your case may not have the best result possible if these tools are not properly developed.
