Review a witness statement. The statement text: [STATEMENT_TEXT]. What the witness could have personally seen or heard: [WITNESS_KNOWLEDGE]. The dispute and the facts it should support: [DISPUTE_FACTS].

Mark each sentence as first-hand fact, second-hand (told by someone), opinion, or conclusion. Make a table with Sentence, Type, Relevance, and Suggested change. Check that the statement has the witness's full name and contact details, the date and place, how they know the people, what they saw and heard in their own words, what they did not see, and a dated signature. Suggest questions to the witness that would clarify unclear points without leading them. Provide a cleaned version only if the witness agrees, and remind me not to change meaning or pressure anyone.

This is editing help and not legal advice.

Do not give me legal advice. Cite no time limit you cannot source. Use [JURISDICTION] and [RELEVANT_LAW_OR_POLICY_IF_KNOWN] as given. Say when to see a professional. Promise no result.

Sentence | Type | Suggested change
'I saw the delivery driver leave the parcel by the gate at about 2 pm.' | first-hand fact | keep
'He is always careless.' | opinion | remove
'My neighbour told me it was damaged.' | second-hand | remove or say who told them and when
'It was a very stressful day.' | conclusion/feeling | optional
Checks: full name, contact details, date and place, how the witness knows the parties, signed and dated.
Ordering: put the time and place first, then what the witness saw, then what they did next. Remove the sentence about stress unless it explains why they remember the time. Add a closing line stating the statement is true to the best of their knowledge, with signature and date.
