Personal Narrative or Case Summary by HMA™
Personal Narrative or Case Summary by HMA
Clear organization of your situation into a concise, accurate written summary that is easy for others to understand.
This service helps turn a complex or overwhelming set of events into a clear, structured narrative or case summary. It is designed for moments when you need to understand what happened, prepare for next steps, or share background information clearly without escalation or argument.
The focus is on clarity, accuracy, and organization, not persuasion.
What this includes
• One written narrative or case summary
• Clear chronological organization of events
• Neutral, professional tone
• Accurate reflection of key facts, dates, and context
• One round of revisions for clarity
The final document is structured to be easy to read, reference, and share when needed.
How this service is typically used
This service is most helpful when you need to organize a situation before deciding what to do next.
Common real-world uses include:
• Preparing a clear written summary before speaking with an attorney, advocate, HR professional, or agency
• Organizing a long or complicated workplace issue into a clean, chronological record
• Creating a personal case summary to better understand what happened and why it matters
• Preparing background documentation for a meeting, mediation, or internal review
• Making sense of emails, conversations, or events that feel scattered or overwhelming
• Creating a neutral written record to reference later, even if no immediate action is taken
• Clarifying your own narrative before deciding whether to escalate, respond, or let something go
In these situations, the goal is understanding and preparation, not confrontation.
How this can function as a living reference document
Many clients keep their case summary as a living reference they return to over time.
Because the summary is organized clearly and written in grounded, neutral language, it can:
• Serve as a stable reference point as situations evolve
• Help you track new events or developments without rewriting everything
• Make it easier to stay consistent when explaining your situation to others
• Provide clarity when emotions shift or memories blur
• Act as a grounding document you can revisit when making decisions
Rather than starting from scratch each time, this summary gives you a clear foundation you can build on as needed.
Why clients often do this before or alongside legal counsel
Attorneys and other professionals typically bill for the time it takes to understand a situation, reconstruct timelines, and sort through details before meaningful guidance can begin.
When events are unclear or disorganized, this orientation process alone can take several billable hours.
Clients who arrive with a clear, organized case summary often find that:
• Less time is spent explaining background
• Fewer follow-up meetings are needed
• Conversations are more focused and efficient
• Professional support can begin at a higher level
Even conservatively, reducing just a few hours of preliminary work can translate into meaningful cost savings and a smoother overall process.
How this is different from Letter Support
This service focuses on organizing and summarizing what has already happened.
If you are ready to communicate a position or send a message to someone else, Advocacy Letter Support (HMA) may be the better next step.
A note on scope
This service focuses on clarity, organization, and preparation. It does not provide legal advice, representation, or conclusions about outcomes.
To keep the process focused and thoughtful, this service includes one narrative or summary document, with one round of revisions for clarity.
Next steps
Once purchased, you will be guided through a brief intake to gather the information needed to begin organizing your summary.
If you’re unsure whether this is the right next step, starting with a Clarity Session can help determine the best way forward.
