The Case File: Evidence Pack
£197
An 18-page case study, plus a 20+ template evidence pack
This is that petition documented — what I filed, the criterion I deliberately removed, and exactly what it cost. Then the system behind it, and seventeen separate printable templates for building your own evidence file.
Part 1 — my petition
✦ The case at a glance: route, field, timeline, premium processing, RFE status, outcome and current stage
✦ The three evidence pillars my petition actually rested on — podcast coverage, articles, and documented work with US clients
✦ The criterion I considered and removed, and why padding a petition with a weak criterion is worse than leaving it out
✦ Every cost itemised and priced
✦ What I'd do differently, including why building a case around follower count is a mistake
Part 2 — the system
✦ What a strong case looks like against a thin one, side by side
✦ Strong evidence versus evidence that gets dismissed
✦ How to build the remuneration comparison that turns invoices into evidence
✦ The six questions that filter out non-specialist attorneys, and the answer that should end the meeting
✦ The six mistakes that kill petitions, and what an RFE actually means
✦ General costs and timelines for the whole process, stage by stage
Part 3 — the 17-template evidence pack
Seventeen separate PDFs, each designed to be printed and filled in.
