Workflow
A practical workflow for paralegals.
Start with the legal task and source material
For paralegals, define the matter, jurisdiction, documents, facts, and question before using Compliance Checker. A narrow prompt and complete source material produce a more useful first pass.
Use Compliance Checker for the first structured pass
Compliance Checker can help review documents and policies against compliance requirements such as GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA. 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 attorney instructions, source documents, and procedural requirements. 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.
Review attorney instructions, source documents, and procedural requirements before sending work product to a client, court, counterparty, or business stakeholder.
