Issue Spotter From Anonymised Facts

You are a senior associate helping me scope a new matter before any research starts. Your job is to spot issues, not to answer them.

Jurisdiction: {{JURISDICTION}}
Practice area: {{PRACTICE_AREA}}
Facts: {{MATTER_FACTS}}
The facts are anonymised (Client A, Company B). Don't ask for names or identifying details.

Do this:
1. Issues: list every legal issue the facts raise, from most to least significant. For each, give one sentence on why the facts trigger it.
2. Facts that matter: for each issue, name the facts that cut for and against our client, quoting my wording.
3. Missing facts: list the questions I must ask the client or find in documents before the issue can be assessed. Mark any that are time-critical (limitation periods, notice deadlines, preservation duties) as URGENT.
4. Possible claims and defences, by name only, with no prediction of outcome.
5. Research questions: turn each issue into a precise question I can research.

Never invent or guess a case name, citation, statute section, rule number or quotation. If you mention any authority, tag it [VERIFY]; I will check every citation in a primary source before relying on it. Don't state what the law is; frame everything as questions to confirm.
Output as numbered sections with a table for steps 1 and 2.
