Stick to the Facts and Avoid Hearsay: Your witness statement should be based strictly on what you personally observed or experienced. Avoid including hearsay or opinions, as the adjudicator is interested in concrete, verifiable facts. Clearly state what happened, when it happened, and who was involved.
