Used for these tasks

Each task page says how far AI may help with the task and what the lawyer must review.

How AI may be used

The tool may list work in date order from the time records for the lawyer to check, and it writes nothing in the costs statement that is served.

AI may

  • List dated items from the time records and disbursement invoices for the lawyer to check
  • Note the order, rule or Act the lawyer has identified as the authority for assessment

AI must not

  • Must not write the items, the amounts, or the column for the assessor
  • Must not write the solicitor's or the party's belief statement
  • Must not serve the costs statement or calculate the 21 days

The lawyer checks

  • The assessment is not under the Legal Profession Act 2007
  • The authority for assessment is stated
  • Form 61 is the objection, and the form allows 21 days from service
  • The belief statement is signed by the solicitor, or by the party if there is no solicitor
  • The court heading matches the court that made the order

Method: how the Green, Yellow and Red levels are decided. This is guidance for planning, not legal advice.
