Opening:

• Warm but professional greeting
• Brief context reminder (1 sentence about case)

Status Update:

Step 5: Generate and Test Your Legal Tool

Test with actual legal documents:

• Test with documents from your practice area
• Verify legal accuracy against manual review
• Check for jurisdiction-specific requirements

Critical: Always perform quality control on AI output before relying on it for client matters.

Legal-Specific Best Practices

Maintain Confidentiality & Ethics

Confidential information handling: "Never include client names, specific case identifying information, or confidential facts in tool descriptions. Use placeholders like 'Client', 'Opposing Party', '[Company Name]'. Test tools with redacted or hypothetical examples only."

Privilege protection: "Flag potentially privileged communications: attorney-client communications, work product, expert consultations. Add warning to output: 'PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL - ATTORNEY WORK PRODUCT' when applicable."

Conflict checks: "Before using client information in tool, verify no conflicts exist. Maintain separate tools for different clients if necessary to avoid cross-contamination of confidential information."

Ethics compliance: "All tools must comply with professional responsibility rules: competence (supervise AI output), confidentiality (secure processing), candor to tribunal (verify all facts and citations), communication (clear about AI assistance if required by jurisdiction)."

Ensure Legal Accuracy

Jurisdiction-specific requirements: "This tool is designed for [California/Federal/Multi-State] jurisdiction. Legal standards, procedural rules, and citation formats follow [California Code/Federal Rules/specific court local rules]. Flag jurisdiction-specific variations."

Citation verification: "All case law citations must include: case name, volume, reporter, page, court, year. Example: Jones v. Smith, 123 F.3d 456 (9th Cir. 2020). Flag if citation cannot be verified - never fabricate citations."

Current law validation: "Check if legal authority is: (1) still good law (not overruled), (2) binding or persuasive in jurisdiction, (3) on point factually and legally. Add warning if authority may be outdated: 'Verify this case is still good law before citing.'"

Legal terminology precision: "Use precise legal terms: 'motion for summary judgment' not 'summary judgment motion', 'plaintiff' not 'complainant' (unless criminal), 'defendant' not 'defense'. Maintain term consistency throughout document."

Format for Legal Standards

Court document formatting: "Follow local court rules for [jurisdiction]. Standard format: 12-point Times New Roman, double-spaced, 1-inch margins, numbered pages, line numbers if required. Caption format: [specify court's caption requirements]. Certificate of service at end."

Contract drafting standards: "Follow commercial contract conventions: (1) Definitions section uses 'shall mean', (2) Obligations use 'shall', 'will', or 'must', (3) Prohibitions use 'shall not' or 'may not', (4) Discretion uses 'may', (5) Avoid 'and/or'. Number sections hierarchically."

Professional correspondence: "Law firm letterhead format. Date line. Recipient address block. Reference line: 'Re: [Matter Name]'. Professional salutation. Block paragraphs, no indentation. Enclosures noted. Sign with full credentials (J.D., Esq., bar admissions)."

Handle Legal Edge Cases

Missing critical information: "If essential legal elements are missing from input (e.g., statute of limitations analysis without claim date), output: '[REQUIRES MANUAL REVIEW: Missing [specific information] - cannot complete analysis]'. Never guess at legal facts."

Conflicting authorities: "If case law conflicts: (1) Note split of authority, (2) Present majority and minority rules, (3) Identify which is binding in jurisdiction, (4) Explain differences in reasoning, (5) Recommend approach with risk assessment."

Ambiguous contract language: "If contract clause is ambiguous: (1) Note ambiguity, (2) Provide possible interpretations, (3) Apply contra proferentem if applicable, (4) Reference relevant extrinsic evidence if mentioned, (5) Recommend clarification in negotiation."

Out-of-scope legal issues: "If input raises legal issues outside tool's scope (e.g., criminal implications in contract review), flag: 'ADVISORY: This matter may involve [issue type]. Consider consulting [specialist type] attorney.' Don't ignore potential issues."

Common Mistakes When Building Legal Tools

Mistake #1: Insufficient Legal Specificity

Problem: "Analyze this contract and tell me about it"

Solution: "Analyze uploaded contract and identify: (1) Payment terms with due dates and late fees, (2) Termination rights (for cause, convenience, material breach), (3) Liability provisions (caps, exclusions, indemnification), (4) IP ownership and licensing, (5) Dispute resolution (arbitration clause, jury waiver, forum selection). Flag any: unlimited liability, automatic renewal, broad non-compete, unusual termination provisions. Jurisdiction: California commercial law."

Mistake #2: Missing Jurisdiction Requirements

Problem: Generic legal analysis not specific to applicable jurisdiction

Solution: "Apply [California/New York/Federal] law. Consider jurisdiction-specific requirements: [State] statute of limitations for [claim type] is [X years]. Follow [State] contract interpretation principles: favor reasonableness, construe ambiguities against drafter, apply plain meaning. Note any conflicts of law issues if multi-state."

Mistake #3: No Quality Control Mechanisms

Problem: Tool output used without verification

Solution: "QUALITY CONTROL REQUIRED: All outputs must be reviewed by licensed attorney before use in client matters. Verify: (1) Legal accuracy of analysis, (2) Current status of cited authorities, (3) Completeness of extraction, (4) Jurisdiction-specific requirements met, (5) No confidential info inadvertently included. Add to output: 'DRAFT FOR ATTORNEY REVIEW - DO NOT FILE OR SEND WITHOUT SUPERVISION'."

Mistake #4: Inappropriate Confidential Information

Problem: Using actual client information in tool descriptions or tests

Solution: "Test with: (1) Redacted documents (black out names, dates, amounts), (2) Sample contracts from public sources, (3) Hypothetical fact patterns, (4) Old matters with no ongoing confidentiality concerns. NEVER use: active client matters, privileged communications, sealed documents, or anything marked confidential."

Mistake #5: Inadequate Citation Standards

Problem: Missing or imprecise legal citations

Solution: "All citations must include complete information: Case Name v. Opposing Party, Volume, Reporter, First Page, Pinpoint Page (Court, Year). Example: Johnson v. Smith, 123 F.3d 456, 459 (9th Cir. 2020). Statutes: Code Name § Section (Year). Example: 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2018). If citation cannot be fully completed from input, mark as [VERIFY CITATION]."
