## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [In-House / General Counsel](https://ailawframework.com/practice/in-house-general-counsel.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | For each jurisdiction the lawyer names, list only the changes the lawyer has entered, with the citation and the effective date as entered. Do not add a jurisdiction and do not describe a change that was not entered. |
| What the lawyer must review | The table is a record of what the lawyer has already identified for each place the business operates. ABA Model Rule 1.1 requires the lawyer to know the law that applies, including material differences among states. ABA Formal Opinion 512 (29 July 2024) does not transfer that duty to the tool. Federal law and state law are not interchangeable. The lawyer decides which rows are complete enough to use. The tool does not. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: For each jurisdiction the lawyer names, list only the changes the lawyer has entered, with the citation and the effective date as entered. Do not add a jurisdiction and do not describe a change that was not entered.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- An empty cell means the lawyer has not entered a change. It does not mean the law is unchanged.
- Do not treat a federal rule as the rule of every state in the table.
