## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Personal Injury & Compensation (workers compensation, CTP/TAC, medical negligence)](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation.md) |
| Human involvement | Red: Lawyer writes; AI may check, clarify or collect data |
| How AI is used | From the pleading and the lawyer's issue list, list the liability topics the practice note allows and the topics it says should not be asked. The tool does not write the interrogatories. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer writes every question that is served. Keep the number, and the subject, inside the limit for that court. Where the note confines questions to liability and contributory negligence, do not go outside that. Do not ask for the names of witnesses, or for matters that belong in a medical report or the particulars of loss. |

## Checking plan

**Lawyer-led interrogatories**

The lawyer writes the questions. The tool lists the topics the practice note allows and those it disallows.

- What the AI does: From the pleading and the lawyer's issue list, list the liability topics the practice note allows and the topics it says should not be asked. The tool does not write the interrogatories.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer writes every question that is served. Keep the number, and the subject, inside the limit for that court. Where the note confines questions to liability and contributory negligence, do not go outside that. Do not ask for the names of witnesses, or for matters that belong in a medical report or the particulars of loss.
- 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.
- Restriction: The lawyer writes anything filed with the court or signed by the client. The tool may organise, extract, compare, index or comment.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Count questions and sub-parts against the limit in the practice note before any question is served.
2. Where the note confines a motor vehicle or industrial accident case to liability, do not go beyond that.
3. Remove a question about a medical report, special damage, or loss of earnings.
4. Do not treat a direction that interrogatories may be ordered as a permission to serve them without an order.

## 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.
