Keep a journal In the days and weeks following, keep track of all events related to the accident and its aftermath by writing them in letter-form to your lawyer. Even if you have not yet obtained representation, this exercise will remind you to pay attention to the detail you will need to recall and explain later in a deposition. Plus, by addressing your notes to your future lawyer, you will be recording much useful information in a confidential format. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1619453274814-QGTETJCBVJL02Z4NL5SB/unsplash-image-9z9fxr_7Z-k.jpg Tips for Travelers - 3. Do not try to represent yourself Even lawyers should heed this advice! Accident victims and their families are often approached by employee representatives of a responsible party (e.g., airline or cruise line) in the wake of an accident. Take their names and contact information, but do not engage in conversations or negotiations with them, and do not sign anything. Under no circumstances should they be permitted to interview you. You can and should, however, cooperate with law enforcement. If you are not sure of the affiliation of the person who wants to question you, ask for clarification and to see identification. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1619453121780-3K876ZM9NQT72JDOLZ11/unsplash-image-GsYNe4grJDY.jpg Tips for Travelers - 1. Preserve documentation Jot down notes as soon as possible after the event to record your observations. Witnesses often want to help: take down their names and contact information. Safeguard travel documents, take pictures with your camera or cell phone, keep receipts, and don’t delete or throw anything away. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1619387475648-6K7OIJKPV93F3MA9B6TE/obi-onyeador-HMcd1bWLTjo-unsplash.jpg Tips for Travelers https://www.ulysseslaw.com/tips-for-employees daily 0.75 2026-01-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1624288553153-E28N95VY7A4K0T15077T/unsplash-image-TswOPhWcrmQ.jpg Tips for Termination Victims - 2. PRESERVE DOCUMENTATION Documentation is critical to memorializing the facts and circumstances of your potential case. Do not destroy anything and immediately compile all your employment related documents in an organized and readily accessible format (Legible PDF copies of all contracts, handbooks, emails, texts, social media, job applications, resumes, etc.) Your attorney will likely ask you for these documents anyways, so the sooner you accomplish this, the better. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1624216295654-B5C3XN9QGUX55JPE10P6/unsplash-image-GJao3ZTX9gU.jpg Tips for Termination Victims - 1. DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING An employer will often approach a newly terminated employee with a severance agreement, offering a sum of money in exchange for a release of all potential claims against the employer. It is highly recommended that you review this agreement with an attorney before signing away your rights. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1624216488359-TXDJCELHP6ZLCNT4V644/unsplash-image-Kuu5mmxkwW4.jpg Tips for Termination Victims - 3. CREATE A TIMELINE A timeline serves as the story of your potential case and will help your attorney immensely in visualizing the big picture of what went wrong. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1624217036740-JF5F7WBPQ0EZN1893YCK/unsplash-image-vZJdYl5JVXY.jpg Tips for Termination Victims - 4. Look for Work The law imposes a duty on wrongfully terminated Plaintiffs to make reasonable efforts to mitigate their damages. Accordingly, you should begin your job search immediately and create a record of all your efforts to replace your lost income. Failure to mitigate one’s damages can result in a reduction of recovery, so do not delay in looking for work! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1619385262011-E9O4MO6FYZN99G96P60W/hunters-race-MYbhN8KaaEc-unsplash.jpg Tips for Termination Victims https://www.ulysseslaw.com/selecting-your-attorney daily 0.75 2026-01-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1619664423401-N66NS67NN3N9JF5UUR2F/unsplash-image-J3JMyXWQHXU.jpg Selecting Your Attorney https://www.ulysseslaw.com/trial-services daily 0.75 2026-01-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1634077659768-EDT179R0PEG19HPO0ZPF/iStock-538064867.jpg Trial Services - PRESENTATION SKILLS We will help you develop and masterfully present clear, persuasive and concise scripts for voir dire, opening statement, direct and cross examinations and closing argument. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1633822030458-HQUKNK4PTZ5KQK1V3ZJP/istockphoto-864500390-612x612.jpg Trial Services - FOCUS GROUPS We will conduct focus groups designed to diagnose the biggest weaknesses in your case. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1633821668312-5G7SB1V8TR7RKU67WTKM/istockphoto-171096042-612x612.jpg Trial Services - examinations & oral argument We will conduct direct and cross-examinations of witnesses and/or deliver the opening and closing arguments of your case. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1633823439937-LEPW0VTN24JDE3D0RCKV/1*O2juk5K3KJUnX1pTGi57mA.jpeg Trial Services - GENERAL TRIAL SUPPORT We will provide general trial support as needed, including motion drafting, transportation of witnesses and demonstratives, and tech support. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fcf1957cb705b2c1e9b85e6/1634077495026-IJH1H2PUVNJL7887T8IP/1*0g_PDXcyiyk_f52cdw1rMg.jpeg Trial Services - JURY SELECTION Jury selection or “Voir Dire” is one of the most critical stages of trial and can make or break your case.
