Support staff often gather background research for counsel: public records, statutes to read, agency rules, company information. Counsel decides what it means and verifies every legal source.
For each question, log
- The question counsel asked.
- The sources searched and the date.
- What was found, with links or citations.
- What was not found.
- Items counsel needs to verify.

Laws and records change. Note the date of every search so counsel knows how fresh it is.
