Sworn Statement

A sworn statement is a written document in which a person, called the affiant or deponent, provides facts or information they believe to be true, and formally declares this under oath or affirmation. Essentially, it’s a legal way of certifying that the information provided is truthful to the best of their knowledge. Sworn statements are often used as evidence in legal proceedings, investigations, or official reports, ensuring the credibility and sincerity of the information shared. They are usually signed in front of a notary or authorized official to confirm the person's commitment to the truthfulness of their statement.
