Important Event Journal Page

Most people try to remember important details—and then freeze when it matters. This Important Event Journal gives you a simple, court-friendly way to record what happened, when, where, who was there, and how you felt. It’s clear, factual, and built the way judges and mediators like to read. Use it to stay organized, stay credible, and stay calm.

What you’ll get (bullets):

• A printable + fillable PDF template designed by a Massachusetts family-law attorney & divorce coach

• A guided framework: When / Where / Who / What (saw, heard, said, done) / Felt

• Space for dates, follow-ups, attachments, and cross-references to texts/photos

• Formatting that supports credibility (clean, objective language)

• Instant digital download—use on your phone, tablet, or print it

Who it’s for:

• You’re early in the divorce process and want a clear record

• You’re preparing for mediation, Pre-Trial Conference, or motions in MA

• You need a steady, simple way to remember facts under stress

• You’re working with a lawyer—or representing yourself

How to use it (3 steps):

1. After an event, record the basics immediately (date/time/place/people).

2. Add what you saw, heard, said, did—and how you felt in clear, calm language.

3. Attach proof (screenshots, emails) and note where it’s stored.
