Workflow

A practical workflow for mid-sized law firms.

Start with the legal task and source material

For mid-sized law firms, define the matter, jurisdiction, documents, facts, and question before using Citation Checker. A narrow prompt and complete source material produce a more useful first pass.

Use Citation Checker for the first structured pass

Citation Checker can help check legal citations and formatting before legal work product is finalized. 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 practice group standards and final attorney review. 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.

Confirm the source documents and facts are complete before using Citation Checker.

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.

Review practice group standards and final attorney review before sending work product to a client, court, counterparty, or business stakeholder.
