Draft affidavit
A heading, deponent identification, nine numbered paragraphs of fact, a statement of truth, and a jurat block leaving space for the commissioner's signature and seal.
How the Affidavit Template Builder works
- Identify the deponent and the capacity in which they swear.
- Write each fact as its own numbered paragraph, in the first person, stating only what the deponent knows directly.
- Take the draft to a lawyer, and swear it before an authorised person — an unsworn affidavit has no standing.
FAQ
Is a generated affidavit legally valid?
Not as generated. An affidavit takes effect when sworn or affirmed before a person authorised in that jurisdiction — a commissioner for oaths, a notary, or an equivalent. The document is a draft until then.
What belongs in the numbered paragraphs?
Facts within the deponent's own knowledge, one per paragraph, in plain chronological language. Opinion, argument and hearsay generally do not belong, and including them invites the whole document to be challenged.
Does the format vary by country?
Considerably. The heading, the wording of the statement of truth, the jurat, and who may administer the oath all differ by jurisdiction, and some places use a statement of truth instead of a sworn affidavit entirely.
