Facts, examples, quotations and statistics are the kind of evidence a writer should use to support a claim or counterclaim.

Further Explanation:

1. Claim

Claim is an announcement or declaration of something true/genuine, yet with no proof or verification that would bolster the announcement. Then again, a counterclaim is a case that is made to restrict or neutralize a specific case.

If you say that someone claims responsibility or credit for something, you mean they say that they are responsible for it, but you are not sure whether or not they are telling the truth.

Examples of Claim: A teenager who wants a new cellular phone makes the following claims: Every other boy or girl in his/her school has a cell phone.

2. Counter claim

The definition of a counterclaim is a claim made to refute allegations against you. If you are sued for breaching a contract and you, in turn, also file suit against the plaintiff and claim or guarantee that he was extremely the one who breached the agreement, your claim against the original plaintiff is an example of a counterclaim.

3. Types of Claim

Fact/Definition: debatable. -controversial/subjective. -(dis)prove with inartistic evidence. Value: personal taste. -morality issue. -opinions (difficult to prove) .Policy/Solution: call to action. -problems. -propose change (solution)
