Lesson 28. Please upgrade your written message. I recommend a chronology and list of players.
Please upgrade your message to me. Please help me be more efficient. I am interested in facts: who, what, when, where, why, and how. Please tell your story in chronological order. Please learn. Please do better. If you want the system to work for you then please work the system. If you want the affordable legal service that I provide then please keep me efficient by communicating efficiently yourself. Communicate efficiently by telling your story complete with facts. Here’s how:
1. Begin every paragraph with a date. Dates may be Past, Present, and Future. Duh.
Example of future: 2008 8 31 I have a trial scheduled for August 31.
2. Make a list of players. How to make a list of players.
a. Begin with you and/ or the defendant/ plaintiff. Many people forget to tell me about themselves. Tell me your telephone number, name, age, address, email address. Write it all in one paragraph. One line. Do not make a 5 line entry. That takes up too much vertical space and I cannot see the whole list.
b. Next player: the court.
c. Read through your chronology. As you read a person’s name then list that person in the list of players. Be sure to list all the people that you mention in the chronology.
d. I want more than a mere list. I want the information that you know regarding these people. Here are some of the people who may be on your list depending on the situation. If you are claiming poverty then please list all your immediate family members, siblings, and parents so that I can call them and ask them to help you to pay. Here is a list to remind you of who you may or may not want to include in the list.
i. You, yo momma, yo baby momma, your support groups, the witnesses, the alleged victims, the cops, the court reporter, the other court reporter, the next court reporter, the clerk in the courtroom, your lawyer, your lawyer’s secretary, your previous lawyer, the lawyer before that, the prosecutor, the judge, the court, the court in your other case, the state court of appeal, your local federal court, your wife, your previous wife, your dad, your mom, your brothers and sisters and half brothers and half sisters, you stepmom, your stepdad, your girlfriend, your boyfriend, your support group - list each member.
