Organize records before discussing your matter
Gather the documents you already have and preserve their exact titles, dates, and case wording. For an injury matter, organize available records related to the event and any resulting injury. For a criminal or traffic matter, include the citation or notice and paperwork showing its case label.
Do not treat a directory category as a determination of your case or as a substitute for counsel’s assessment. The listed contacts identify clerk-office divisions and a separate traffic-citations contact; counsel can consider the actual matter and records available to you.
