MaintainedLast reviewed
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- Assemble one person's identity, product, injury, treatment and wage material for a settlement of a Part 4A group proceeding in the Supreme Court of Victoria. Tag every entry to a source. Do not assess the claim.
- What the lawyer must review
- Check each entry against the record and against the pleaded Part 4A group.
- Check the s 33J opt-out date before the pack is sent. Written notice before that date is the opt-out.
- If the form has a statutory declaration, write that part yourself. The tool writes nothing in it.
- Show a group costs order under s 33ZDA, if made, as a separate deduction.

If the work reaches the Supreme Court of Victoria, Practice Note SC GEN 25 requires the lawyer to verify output. Do not put health records into a public AI tool. One AI tool cannot verify another.
SC Gen 10 para 11.2: an opt-out notice is not sent until the Court has approved its form and content. Whether an older prescribed opt-out form survived the 2025 rules was not confirmed.
