A Checklist of Documents to Bring to Your Attorney is a list of important documents that a person should compile before meeting with an attorney. This checklist is typically used to provide the attorney with key information that the attorney needs in order to make a more informed decision or to make a better assessment of the case. This checklist may include documents such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, bank statements, financial records, tax returns, and any other evidence that the lawyer may need. There are different types of checklist documents to bring to your attorney such as for immigration, for divorce, for personal injury, for criminal defense, for child custody, for bankruptcy, for estate planning, and for business.
