How to build a case timeline
Start Case Check
A case timeline is a chronological list of the most important events in your dispute or claim.
Start with the earliest relevant event and move forward date by date. Include who was involved, what happened, what evidence supports the event, and why the event matters.
What to include
Dates, people involved, emails, contracts, messages, payments, meetings, promises, warnings, harm suffered, and any important response from the other side.
Why timelines matter
A clear timeline helps reviewers understand the facts faster. It also helps reveal missing documents, contradictions, deadlines, and key moments in the case.
