Disclosure
Stage 5 of 9 · 4 topics in this stage
If it’s time to exchange documents and you’re not sure what you have to hand over, this is the stage. Both sides have to find, list and exchange the documents that matter to the issues in the case, whether they help or not. This stage is about what disclosure really means, how to do it properly, and what to do when you think the other side is holding something back.
