## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Elder Law & Powers of Attorney / Guardianship](https://ailawframework.com/practice/elder-law-and-powers-of-attorney-guardianship.md) |
| Human involvement | Red: Lawyer writes; AI may check, clarify or collect data |
| How AI is used | For each citation, record whether it appears in a source the lawyer supplies. For each factual sentence, record whether the file contains it. Do not rewrite the paper. |
| What the lawyer must review | You decide what, if anything, is filed. Model Rule 3.3 is the duty of candor if a paper goes to a tribunal. Formal Opinion 512 warns against relying on a citation a tool produced and you have not checked. No state guardianship statute was opened, so the check does not say the draft meets a tribunal's rules. A sentence or a citation that is not in the file or in a source you supply stays out unless you adopt it yourself. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: For each citation, record whether it appears in a source the lawyer supplies. For each factual sentence, record whether the file contains it. Do not rewrite the paper.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.
