Analysis
Request the hearing in your reply and explain why written submissions are not enough, for example a complicated property sale with multiple buyers. Prepare a short note and keep all documents open during the call. After the hearing, file a written summary of what you said. Hearings are not granted in every case, so the written reply must still be complete.
