## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Family Law](https://ailawframework.com/practice/family-law.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | For each question the lawyer types, return the document name, page, and a short quote that contains the fact. Return no hit when the loaded file has no matching page. Add no conclusion. |
| What the lawyer must review | Family Code § 2100(c) requires disclosure of all assets and liabilities, whether community or separate, and of income and expenses, with an immediate update for material changes. A missed page can hide that disclosure. Opinion 512 requires you to check a tool's extract against the document before you rely on it. You decide which hits matter and you open the page. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: For each question the lawyer types, return the document name, page, and a short quote that contains the fact. Return no hit when the loaded file has no matching page. Add no conclusion.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- No hit means the loaded set had no match. It does not mean the fact is absent from the case.
- Section 2100 is California. Another state's disclosure duty is a different statute.
