The lawsuit in question is the third in a string of attempts to settle the estate of Hagnias of Oeon, an Athenian ambassador who was captured and murdered by Sparta.
It was apparently of no concern to the court that Theopompus was so distantly related to Hagnias that he could only claim kinship through a brother of his grandfather.
Nevertheless, the estate of Hagnias was awarded to Theopompus and, upon Theopompus’ death, was passed on to his son Macartatus.

Well, Phylomache the sister of Polemon, Hagnias' father, was not cousin to Hagnias but aunt, for she was the sister of Polemon, Hagnias' father.
Euboulides, the son of this woman, was cousin on Hagnias' father's side, and it was Hagnias' estate.
For she was not related to Hagnias, but she was from another tribe, Akamantis, and from another deme, Prospalta, so she did not even realise that Hagnias had died.

Aspects of Isaeus' style may be an indicator, such as his extensive use of vituperation and of rhetorical questions; and he had an approach to argument reminiscent of Gorgias and Antiphon in its exhaustiveness.
Isaeus clearly paid close attention to the arrangement of his material and dispensed with the standard, fourfold format of proem, narrative, proofs and epilogue: for example, his speeches regularly have two, three or more discrete sections of narrative, and speech 11 ("On the Estate of Hagnias") begins with citation and discussion of the laws.
This is in marked contrast to Lysias, with whom Isaeus is regularly compared; Dionysius of Halicarnassus indeed writes "that Isaeus is cleverer in his arrangement of subject-matter than Lysias, with regard both to the speech as a whole and its parts" ("Isaeus" 14).

And they would quickly have turned back to the land of the Mysians, forcing their way through the deep sea and the unceasing blasts of the wind, had not the two sons of Thracian Boreas held back the son of Aeacus with harsh words.

Till they had left the harbour and its curving shores behind them, the ship was in the expert hands of Tiphys, wise son of Hagnias, who used the polished steering-oar to keep her on her course.
