Workflow
A practical workflow for trade associations.
Start with the legal task and source material
For trade associations, define the matter, jurisdiction, documents, facts, and question before using Brief Builder. A narrow prompt and complete source material produce a more useful first pass.
Use Brief Builder for the first structured pass
Brief Builder can help build legal briefs with AI-assisted structure, issue framing, and argument drafting. The goal is to create a working draft, checklist, issue map, or research trail that a legal professional can refine.
Review against primary sources and client facts
Legal AI output should be checked against the actual record, governing law, client instructions, and company policy, source documents, business context, applicable law, approvals, and legal signoff. OpusLaw is a legal workflow tool, not a substitute for legal judgment.
Move the result into the broader matter workflow
Use the result as a launch point for a memo, brief, contract review, client update, negotiation note, or next Practice Hub tool. Keep the final answer tied to source documents and attorney approval.
Review checklist
What to verify before relying on the output.

Check all legal conclusions against current law and controlling authority.
Preserve confidentiality and avoid uploading information that should not be placed in a tool without approval.
