| Practice area | [Trusts & Estate Planning](https://ailawframework.com/practice/trusts-and-estate-planning.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | Table the structure the client asked about, who the deed names as trustee and beneficiary, and the distribution clause. Do not write the explanation. |
| What the lawyer must review | You write anything the client receives. Where enacted, Uniform Trust Code § 801 requires the trustee, after acceptance, to administer the trust in good faith, in accordance with its terms and purposes and the interests of the beneficiaries. Section 802 requires loyalty. Section 816's powers yield to the deed. Do not describe a tax result. Opinion 512 and Model Rule 1.6: keep the family's facts out of a public tool. |
