| Practice area | [Personal Injury & Compensation (workers compensation, CTP/TAC, medical negligence)](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | From the treatment records the lawyer has selected, make a table of each person the record names, the role the record gives that person, the place, and the page. Do not decide who is sued. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer decides who is sued. The list does not decide employment or indemnity. Do not name a compulsory recipient of a pre-court notice. No opened section does. Keep health and wage records in a firm-controlled tool, not a public one. ASCR r 9 and APP 11 apply. Decide if a breach is notifiable under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). |

## Checking plan

**Verify against sources**

The list identifies whose service is in issue for section 5O. It does not choose the defendant.

- What the AI does: From the treatment records the lawyer has selected, make a table of each person the record names, the role the record gives that person, the place, and the page. Do not decide who is sued.
- What the lawyer does: Make the legal assessment, check the source material and authorise the output for its intended use.
- 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. One row per person the selected record names, with the role, place and page.
2. Section 5O asks whether that professional acted in a manner widely accepted in Australia by peer professional opinion as competent professional practice.
3. Do not add an employer or an indemnity scheme. None was opened.
4. A warning allegation is section 5P, not this list.

## Notes

- No indemnity scheme was opened. The list does not say who must be indemnified.
- If this is filed in the Supreme Court of New South Wales, Practice Note SC Gen 23, issued on 28 January 2025 and commenced on 3 February 2025, bars generative AI from the content of an affidavit or witness statement, and from an expert report without prior leave, subject to paragraph 23.

## Practical guide

Jurisdiction: New South Wales. Treatment records, before a defendant is chosen.

**Deliverable**: A table of clinicians named in the records.

**Inputs**

- Treatment records the lawyer selects
- The pages that name each person

**Example**: Illustrative example: A discharge summary names a surgeon and does not name an employer. The table records the surgeon and the page. It does not add an employer.

**Stop and escalate when**

- The tool is asked to choose the defendant.
- A person is added who is not named in the record.
