Legal Research Agent
Researches a legal question across case law and legislation and drafts a memo, with every source cited and checked.
The challenge
Skilled people spend hours writing first drafts of documents that follow a familiar format, leaving less time to review and improve them.
How it works
- 1A request arrives.
- 2The agent gathers the facts and past examples from your data.
- 3It writes a first draft in your house style.
- 4It checks the draft against your standards and corrects it.
- 5A member of your team edits and approves it.
- 6The approved version is saved to your system.
Your people stay in control
Nothing is sent or published until a named member of your team has reviewed and approved it.
