## Checking plan

**Verify against sources**

The update reports work already done. It does not add a Queensland time limit or a scheme result the lawyer has not written.

- What the AI does: Draft a short progress update for the client from the steps the lawyer has already taken. State no time limit and no scheme outcome unless the lawyer has already written that sentence. Do not send it.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer checks the update and decides whether it is sent.
- Who reviews: Lawyer competent in this practice area
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 23 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. The update describes the steps the lawyer has already taken. It adds no next step the lawyer has not approved.
2. It states no time limit under the Personal Injuries Proceedings Act 2002, the Motor Accident Insurance Act 1994, the Workers' Compensation and Rehabilitation Act 2003, or the Limitation of Actions Act 1974, unless the lawyer has already written that sentence.
3. It states no scheme outcome, including no view on section 237 or on which Act applies, unless the lawyer has already written that sentence.
4. Costs disclosure under the Legal Profession Act 2007 was not opened. Do not add a costs sentence. Do not put the client's health or wage information into a public chatbot.

## Notes

- The client receives this update, so it is checked on this matter before it is sent.
- Queensland Courts say private, confidential, suppressed or privileged information is not entered into a public tool.

## Practical guide

Jurisdiction: Queensland plaintiff personal injury file, a progress update to the client

**Deliverable**: A draft progress update, still unsent, with no unchecked date and no unchecked scheme outcome.

**Inputs**

- The steps the lawyer says have been taken
- Any sentence the lawyer has already written about a date or an outcome

**Example**: Illustrative example: The draft says the file has been opened and records have been requested. The lawyer removes a sentence that gave a section 9 date, because the lawyer had not written it.

**Stop and escalate when**

- The draft states a date or an outcome the lawyer has not written.
- The draft gives costs advice.
