Tell us what the dispute is about
A few sentences is enough to start: what happened, who it is with, and roughly how much is involved. If a date may be running against you, put that in the first line rather than at the end. Most civil claims in New South Wales have a deadline, and it does not pause while you decide what to do.
Please do not send detail about your matter before a conflict check. A short summary is enough to arrange a first conversation.
The type of dispute, the other party’s full legal name, the amount involved, and any date that may be close.
Please keep the first message short and do not attach your file. A conflict check has to happen before a law practice can receive the detail of your matter.
If you have received a statement of claim or any other court or tribunal document, say so and give the date you received it. The time to respond has already started.
