Keep the original communication.
Identify your business’s role on the project, the type of work performed, the general nature of the communication, and any date the sender has identified. Keep the original documents available, but wait for the firm’s instructions before sending confidential material.
Know what may be helpful.
Documents counsel may ask to review include the notice, your contract or subcontract, change orders, relevant communications, project records, and insurance information. This is an organizational guide, not a determination of your obligations or a complete evidence checklist.
Ask about the next step.
Ask what the firm needs for screening, whether it can assist, what the proposed work involves, and how fees are handled. An online request or receipt does not mean the firm has accepted your case or agreed to meet a deadline.
General information, not legal advice. An inquiry does not establish representation or responsibility for a deadline.
