Before you fire someone, have someone read the file.
A line-by-line review of your write-ups, PIP, or investigation notes — so you find the holes before an attorney, an arbitrator, or an unemployment hearing does.

Who this is for
Small business owners with no HR department.
You're the owner, the manager, and the HR department. Nobody checks your work before you act.
New or solo HR professionals with no mentor.
You're the whole HR function, and there's no one senior to ask whether your file is ready.
What I look for
Most files fail for reasons the person who wrote them can't see.
- Whether your write-ups describe specific behavior or just describe frustration
- Whether the dates tell the story you think they tell
- Whether the employee ever saw the documentation, and whether that matters here
- Whether the file shows what you did to help the employee succeed, not only what they did wrong
- Whether your own policy was followed the way it's written
- Whether the steps you took match the steps you skipped
How it works
Send your documents.
Write-ups, PIP, investigation notes, emails, policy language — whatever you have. Upload or email.
I read every page.
Not a template scan. A line-by-line read by someone who has sat in these meetings.
You get a written report in 30–48 hours.
What's solid, what's weak, what's missing, and what to do about each one, in plain language.
What you get
- A written report, not a phone call you have to take notes on
- A clear list of gaps, ranked by how much risk each one carries
- Specific language suggestions where your documentation is vague
- A straight answer on whether your file is ready
Who's reading your file
I'm Dawnna Mims. I've spent more than thirty years in human resources and labor relations, in a union environment, handling grievances, investigations, and terminations. Master's degree in HR management. Certified Internal Investigator. Certified AI Consultant. Labor relations management certification.
I've read a lot of files that managers were certain about. The certainty and the paperwork are two different things, and the gap between them is where this goes wrong.

FAQ
How fast will I hear back?
Within 30 to 48 hours of receiving your documents.
What if I only have a few emails and no formal write-up?
Send what you have. Part of the review is telling you what's missing.
Is this legal advice?
No. This is HR process and documentation guidance. For legal questions about a specific action, you need a licensed employment attorney.
Will you tell me whether to fire the person?
No. I'll tell you whether your documentation supports the action you're considering, and what it would take to get it there.
What's your refund policy?
All sales are final once the review is delivered. You're paying for my time reading your file, and that time is spent whether the news is good or bad. If you change your mind before I start reading, email me and I'll refund you in full. If your report doesn't arrive within 48 hours of my receiving your documents, you get a full refund.
