## Checking plan

**Lawyer review required**

The responsible lawyer reviews the work against the instructions, sources and intended use.

- What the AI does: From the executed assignment and the register extracts, build a schedule of every mark assigned with its number, the goods and services transferred and whether the assignment is full or partial, check the assignor matches the registered owner, and complete the recordal requests on the firm's validated templates.
- What the lawyer does: Approve the templates once at setup, then confirm for each recordal that the assignment was signed by authorised persons for both parties, that the goods and services match the agreement, and that any partial assignment is intended to split the mark.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Practical workflow informed by the linked primary sources; the traffic light and working checks are editorial guidance, not a court classification.
- Why: The level reflects what the work is, the consequence of an error, and how much of the output the lawyer must independently re-derive.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Confirm the instructions, the jurisdiction and the complete relevant material before starting.
2. Check the assignor named in the agreement against the registered owner of each mark.
3. Check whether each assignment is full or partial and that partial assignments list the goods and services correctly.
4. Confirm the agreement is signed by an authorised person for each party.
5. Check the output against the source documents named in it before it is relied on.

## Notes

- These are suggested working checks. Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts; the checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.
