Tribunal Agenda for Case Management at Preliminary Hearing help needed

JustDave
I'm at the stage of having to complete the "Agenda for case management at preliminary hearing" and the form terrifies me! I'm doing this on my own, (no union, no solicitor) and really don't want to risk messing up my case. Should I start the form now even though hearing is mid december?  Should I contact the respondent (organisation's lawyer) to ask if they're taking the lead on this, and I'll complete/offer any amendments after? They've not submitted the ET3 yet, should I wait for that?
I'm worried any mistake or omission on my part on any of the questions will result in the case being thrown out or ruled against me and leave me ruined. Has anyone any experience of this they're willing to share or is there any support available anywhere for a layperson such as myself to help make sure I'm keeping myself right?
Thank you in advance

  • Please check the Valla website. Their primary focus is to equip people to take on their own cases and have loads of resources. You can even get legal opinions for a fixed fee.

    I am nearly in this position but my union are stalling starting a case as they believe redeployment is a better option. I disagree.

    It is very hard for us autists to do all this without support.

    Thank you for the suggestion about Valla, I'll check them out.

    This has got me in bits - not even just about my actual case/issue - more the procedural side making sure I comply with the set processes etc. 

    Compensation, lost earnings, interest etc - I had no idea it was up to me to determine what level of award to ask for as I thought that would be down to the judge to determine. I am so naive and stupid, It all seems very confusing and complicated to someone like me, making me worry this puts me at a massive disadvantage to my organisation's legal team who will deal with these quite regularly.
