## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Commercial & Corporate Advisory (contracts, company law, governance)](https://ailawframework.com/practice/commercial-and-corporate-advisory.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | Mark clauses in the draft that depart from the playbook positions the lawyer supplies, and set the playbook position beside each departure. |
| What the lawyer must review | Accept, reject or rewrite every mark before the draft goes back. A playbook position is not legal advice until you confirm it against the contract's governing law. Formal Opinion 512 requires independent review of generated output you rely on. Model Rule 1.6: keep the counterparty draft out of a public tool. |
