## When to use it

Use once the regulator has given details of a complaint against a lawyer, to plan the response and advice on characterisation.

## Used for these tasks

- [Map the allegations against the governing conduct standard](https://ailawframework.com/practice/professional-discipline-and-occupational-regulation.md#A63-H20261018-3)

## How AI may be used

AI may tabulate the allegations and cross-reference the documents; the lawyer decides the characterisation and the response.

**AI may:**

- Tabulate each allegation from the regulator’s notice with the documents it relies on
- Cross-reference the practitioner’s records to each allegation

**AI must not:**

- Must not characterise conduct as unsatisfactory professional conduct or professional misconduct
- Must not draft the practitioner’s explanation

**The lawyer checks:**

- Each allegation is matched to the correct statutory category and conduct rule
- Evidence for and against each allegation is complete
- The characterisation advice is the lawyer’s own

## Authorities

- [Legal Profession Uniform Law (NSW) s 296 (unsatisfactory professional conduct), s 297 (professional misconduct), s 298 (conduct capable of constituting either)](https://legislation.nsw.gov.au/view/html/inforce/current/act-2014-16a)
