Using this kit
When to use it
Use it at an authorised factual intake or when another batch of material arrives. Keep the firm's conflict, engagement and collection procedures in place.
How to use it
Set the collection scope and record what was requested and received. Add material changes to the change register with their source, affected work and owner. Reconcile missing records against actual responses and record the remaining gap.
Scope and review
These forms support factual collection and review. They are not a preservation notice, formal discovery request or finding that collection is complete. Record uncertainty and escalate procedural questions to the responsible lawyer.
