FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions (Legal/IP)

Does it provide legal advice?

Answers are informational and based on the material you upload (templates, policies, playbooks). Final legal judgment and client advice always remain with your legal team.

What types of documents work best?

Contract templates (MSA, SLA, DPA), internal playbooks, compliance policies, IP memos, common client FAQs, and internal-team guidelines. The clearer and more up-to-date the material, the more useful the answers.

Can it help with litigation/investigations?

It can help find relevant excerpts from policies, procedures, and internal documents your team has already organized. It does not replace eDiscovery tools or the official legal-hold workflows you apply.

Does it cover IP topics (patents, trademarks, designs)?

It can be used on your own IP playbooks, checklists, and guides (e.g., patentability, FTO, timelines). It doesn’t replace specialized IP legal advice, but it helps apply your defined methodology consistently.

Who controls the content of the answers?

Your firm chooses which documents, templates, and policies are used. When something changes (e.g., a clause, process, limit), you update the relevant text so future answers align with current practice.
