SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Routine clinic correspondence like appointment confirmations, document requests, and brief status “we filed it” updates are repetitive and easy to get wrong, causing delays and inconsistent required language.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Template-based routine drafting: Produces plain-language letters for appointment confirmations, document requests, and brief status updates without going beyond what a template supports.
  • Required elements and client-safe wording: Ensures the letter includes the correct type-specific fields (dates/times/where/what to bring, document lists and deadlines, and next steps) and keeps advice non-substantive.
  • Supervision and disclosure guardrails: Enforces a supervision workflow by generating drafts intended for supervising attorney review, with student attorney disclosure guidance and a clear instruction to remove internal review labels before client delivery.
  • Pedagogy-mode alignment: Adapts output to supervisor posture (assist/guide/teach) while always including a pedagogy-mode line describing what the student did versus what the skill did.

FAQPage Schema
How do I draft a routine client letter for a legal clinic appointment confirmation?

To draft a client letter for an appointment confirmation, generate a plain-language template with required fields for dates, times, locations, and items to bring. The output ensures non-substantive wording and includes student-attorney disclosure placeholders for supervising attorney review.

What is the best way to request documents from clients without providing substantive legal advice?

The best way to request documents without giving substantive advice is using a template-driven letter that lists required documents and deadlines. It enforces non-substantive wording, includes clinic contact placeholders, and generates a draft for supervisor review before delivery.

Can I use a template to send a brief status update to a clinic client?

Yes, you can use a template to send a brief status update like a filing notice. It produces plain-language client correspondence that stays within template limits, adds student-attorney disclosure guidance, and flags internal review labels for removal before client delivery.

Does the student practice disclosure requirement apply to routine clinic correspondence?

Student practice disclosure applies to routine clinic correspondence by requiring student-attorney disclosure guidance and clinic contact placeholders in every generated letter. The output is designed for a supervision workflow, generating drafts intended for a supervising attorney to review.

How do supervision workflow guardrails work when drafting client letters?

Supervision workflow guardrails work by enforcing draft generation for supervising attorney review, including a pedagogy-mode line describing student actions, and instructing the removal of internal review labels before final client delivery to prevent unauthorized legal advice.

When should I not use automated templates for client correspondence?

You should not use automated templates for client correspondence involving case strategy or substantive legal advice. This approach is strictly limited to routine appointment confirmations, document requests, and brief status updates to maintain non-substantive, client-safe wording.
