Write a simple chronology

List what happened, what you noticed afterward, and the major medical, work, insurance, and communication events that followed.

Gather the records already available

Bring reports, photographs, medical information, bills, policy details, claim correspondence, and contact information without delaying the conversation if something is missing.

Bring your questions and goals

Identify what you do not understand and what matters most right now. The consultation should help clarify the process and the information still needed.
