This is a "How To" on how to draft a witness statement. Do not forget that witness statements are for producing evidence and so you should NOT send a witness statement in when you first make a claim.

See separate video on drafting a Reply & Defence to Counterclaim - pleadings are what you use to state your case, evidence comes at a later stage and the court will send out an order for your to produce and exchange witness statements and all your evidence (disclosure)
at a date a few weeks before trial.
