Use with attorney review

This page describes a legal technology workflow. It is not legal advice. Final work product should be reviewed by a qualified legal professional.

Workflow

A practical workflow for professional services firms.

Start with the legal task and source material

For professional services firms, 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 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.
