Before you press send, just leave the legal problem as it is. There is no need to make things tidier or more sanitised for a lawyer.
Tell us what actually happened, warts and all.
That letter you received. The contract waiting for you to sign. The approaching settlement date. The debt notice deadline. The will you have been putting off because of difficulties with family. The lease for your business. The company dispute you just can’t solve. The family arrangement you agreed to because everyone was exhausted. The email you already sent and now are worried about.
That is the useful material.
Benjafield & Associates works across Sydney and beyond from Chatswood, and helps with business law, litigation, property, family law, insolvency, wills, estates, powers of attorney and guardianship. Even if you aren’t sure what area of law applies, we can help you identify the help you need.
Use the long form if the matter has moving parts. Put the date near the top. Attach or describe the document. Say what someone is pushing you to do next.
The first job is not to make you sound organised.
It is to stop the next wrong move. Before it grows teeth while everyone is still pretending.
Send the ugly version first.
Dates belong near the top. Do a timeline of events to describe how the situation evolved into what it is now.
Documents and dot points beat polished explanations here.
Already replied? Say that too. Anything can be resolved, but true resolution needs everything out in the open.
Remember, for nearly fifty years Benjafield and Associates has been providing legal advice to individuals, couples, families, companies and associations, and so in that time you can imagine that we have seen and dealt with most of the challenges people face and have the experience to help you deal with your situation with certainty and understanding. People often visit a lawyer when the situation seems insurmountable. We know that people come seeking help, not to be judged for mistakes they might have made. We will treat you with compassion and understanding, and will focus on finding that path forward so that you can move on.
