Who does what
| Role | What they do |
|---|---|
| Assistance | Supporting preparation only. List the function the lawyer identifies, the resource material in the brief, and the section the other side has named. Do not write the advice on whether the protection applies. The tool writes nothing into the document. Substantive advice, judgement and any restricted content remain with the responsible human. |
| Lawyer | Perform the substantive analysis and decisions. Independently check any permitted supporting work and approve the exact output for its intended use. |
Checklist
- List the function the lawyer has identified and the resource material actually in the brief.
- Set that material against the three section 83 principles: resources reasonably available, the broad range of activities, and compliance with general procedures and standards as evidence.
- Do not add a sentence that the general allocation of resources is not open to challenge. The opened section does not say that.
- Leave section 84 for the lawyer. Its text was not opened. The heading follows section 83 in the Act.

Section 84 is headed as the next section on the page that was opened. Its text was not opened. The lawyer reads it before treating section 83 as the whole answer. This is not a road or footpath non-feasance task.
If this is filed in the Supreme Court of Victoria, Practice Note SC Gen 25, issued on 14 May 2026, calls for particular caution with affidavit material and expert reports, and says confidential information should not go into a public AI tool.
