Across the life of a matter
Ameen gives the legal team command of the record at each stage of a contested matter, and keeps it current as the record grows.
Early case assessment
The strengths and weaknesses of each side’s position on the documents, before strategy is set.
Pleadings
The factual case built from the chronology, and the other side’s pleaded case tested against its own documents.
Disclosure
Each tranche tested against the material already held, with new conflicts identified as it arrives.
Witness evidence
Statements checked against the documented sequence of events, and each opposing witness’s account tested against the record.
Cross-examination
The documents that contradict each witness, ranked, and available during the examination itself.
Settlement and trial
An informed view of the case at the points where decisions are made.
What the team receives
The chronology
The chronology of the matter, current as disclosure arrives, with disputed dates identified.
The parties
Who is who in the record and who dealt with whom, with aliases reconciled.
The contradictions
The conflicts across the record, ranked by their materiality to the case.
Answers
Questions on the facts answered from the record, or withheld where it does not support an answer.
