Trend: Legal AI is moving fast — deposition summaries, drafting assistance, and legal research have strong vendor adoption — but unauthorized-practice-of-law rules, hallucinated citations, and privilege concerns keep attorney review non-negotiable.

Regulated profession notice

Regulated profession notice: Legal work is bound by unauthorized-practice-of-law rules, attorney-client privilege, and professional responsibility obligations. AI output is a drafting aid, not a legal opinion. Check every citation, deadline, statute, and precedent against the primary source — AI tools have been documented to fabricate case law. Route every client-facing deliverable through a supervising attorney before release. Do not upload privileged documents to consumer AI tools without your firm's written policy allowing it.

Claude API evidence-coder across matter sets

Build a Claude API evidence-coder that labels documents by issue, relevance, and key-actor tag, outputs structured metadata into the eDiscovery platform, and never assigns privilege or production calls — those remain with the attorney.

Last verified 2026-04-20

Prompt
You are tagging one document for issue, relevance, and actors. Return JSON only. Do NOT set privilege or production flags.

Inputs:
- document_text_redacted
- bates_reference
- matter_issues: [...]
- key_actors: [...]

Return:
{
  "issue_tags": [{"issue": "...", "evidence_snippet": "...", "confidence": "low|medium|high"}],
  "actor_mentions": ["..."],
  "document_type": "email|memo|contract|notes|other",
  "reviewer_follow_ups": ["..."]
}

Never output privilege or production recommendations. Attorney retains those calls.
