Legal by Aura: prepare facts for an advocate conversation

A first conversation with an advocate is easier when the facts are organised. Legal by Aura provides user-supplied factual intake, matter records and consultation requests with independent advocates. This guide helps prepare that conversation without interpreting the law.

Write a factual timeline

List the events you want to discuss in date order. Separate what you personally observed from what someone else told you. Mark uncertain dates or missing documents instead of treating them as established facts.

Keep relevant documents you are authorised to share together. Give each one a useful label and note its date. Do not alter the original material to make it fit a narrative.

Prepare the questions you want answered

• Explain the concern in your own words.
• Identify the documents or events that need professional interpretation.
• Write down what you want to understand about possible next steps.
• Ask the independent advocate about suitability, scope and any representation arrangement.

Practice areas and profile details can help you explore the directory. The platform does not rank advocates or guarantee that a particular professional is available or suitable for your matter.

Understand the request and conversation stages

You choose an advocate and submit a consultation request for review. Messaging becomes available after acceptance and is scoped to the user and advocate associated with that conversation. Live calls depend on the connected calling service being available.

A request is not itself a confirmed paid appointment or an agreement to represent you. AURA organises factual information and questions; it does not provide legal advice, calculate deadlines, recommend remedies or predict outcomes. Bring questions requiring legal judgement to the independent advocate and verify the next step directly with that professional.
