## 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 | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | From the records the lawyer selects, list the injuries, the treating documents, and the questions the lawyer has already written. Do not give a percentage and do not say whether a threshold is met. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer chooses the questions, the records, and any percentage the form asks the lawyer to suggest. The tool does not name an edition of the guides or state a threshold result. A percentage printed in a report is recorded, not adopted. Health, wage and scheme records stay in the firm tool. ASCR r 9 and APP 11 apply, and a breach may be notifiable. |

## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

Trace relied-on content to the linked source and check for material the output has missed.

- What the AI does: From the records the lawyer selects, list the injuries, the treating documents, and the questions the lawyer has already written. Do not give a percentage and do not say whether a threshold is met.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer chooses the questions, the records, and any percentage the form asks the lawyer to suggest. The tool does not name an edition of the guides or state a threshold result. A percentage printed in a report is recorded, not adopted. Health, wage and scheme records stay in the firm tool. ASCR r 9 and APP 11 apply, and a breach may be notifiable.
- 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. List only records and questions the lawyer has selected.
2. Do not add a percentage or an edition of the guides.
3. Keep physical and psychological material separate where the source assesses them separately.
4. Do not write that a threshold is met or missed.

## 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.
