SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Sharing or producing legal documents without a privilege check risks irreversible waiver of attorney-client privilege and work-product protection. This Skill applies a structured checklist before any document or excerpt leaves the workspace, so privileged material is caught before it reaches the wrong recipient. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Jurisdiction-aware privilege analysis: Evaluates which jurisdiction's rules apply, flagging traps like narrow UK client definitions and EU in-house counsel limits. - Recipient and waiver assessment: Distinguishes attorney-client privilege waiver rules from work-product waiver standards, including common-interest and joint-defense arrangements. - Hidden content and privilege-log support: Checks attachments, embedded files, comments, tracked changes, and metadata, and generates privilege-log entries for withheld or redacted materials. - Use Case: Before producing a document set in litigation, run the checklist on each item to get a pass/fail/uncertain verdict with citations, and escalate uncertain items to the supervising attorney. ## Quick Start Review the attached production set for privilege issues before we send it to opposing counsel.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check documents for attorney-client privilege before production?▼

Walk each document through a privilege checklist covering jurisdiction, privileged status, recipient group, attachments, and hidden content. Give each item a pass, fail, or uncertain verdict with a citation, and escalate uncertain items to the supervising attorney before sending.

What is the difference between attorney-client privilege and work-product waiver?▼

Attorney-client privilege is waived when any recipient falls outside the privileged group. Work product is waived only by disclosure that materially increases the chance an adversary obtains it, so sharing with a friendly third party may preserve work product while still waiving privilege.

Does privilege review cover metadata and tracked changes?▼

Yes. Comments, tracked changes, speaker notes, and document metadata can carry privileged analysis even when the visible text is clean. Each of these hidden elements must be reviewed as its own privilege question before disclosure.

When does a clawback agreement protect a privileged disclosure?▼

A clawback or non-waiver agreement under FRE 502(d)/(e) or a local equivalent can protect against waiver, but only if the production is actually governed by that order or agreement. Confirm coverage for the specific disclosure before relying on it.

What are the limitations of an automated privilege review checklist?▼

A checklist cannot make final legal judgments, especially on jurisdiction-specific questions or uncertain items. When any item is uncertain, the correct action is to withhold the material and escalate to the supervising attorney rather than send.
