Building a case timeline that counsel can use

A clean timeline of every key event, with the source of each, is one of the most useful documents in a file. Build it as the case goes, not the week before mediation.

Timelines help counsel see the story of a case, prepare for depositions and explain the facts at mediation or trial.

What goes in

  • The date, and the time where it matters.
  • What happened, in one plain sentence.
  • The source: document, page or witness.
  • A category: incident, medical, communication, filing.

Keep it neutral

Write facts, not arguments. Counsel decides how the facts are used.

Our case timeline builder sorts the events and prints them.
