Workflow
A practical workflow for risk assessment workflows.
Start with the legal task and source material

Use Judge Research for the first structured pass

Review against primary sources and client facts
Legal AI output should be checked against the actual record, governing law, client instructions, and source documents, assumptions, applicable law, review ownership, privilege, and final attorney approval. 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.
