Legal Research Roadmap Generator
Generates structured research roadmaps and initial leads for legal issues to help students identify relevant statutes, case law areas, and search terms.
The research-start skill accelerates the initial phase of legal research by providing a comprehensive roadmap of potential statutory starting points, case law areas, and Westlaw or CourtListener search terms. Designed specifically for legal clinics and law students, it prioritizes a 'leads over authorities' framework, requiring users to verify all citations while surfacing internal clinic seed documents to ensure research aligns with existing office precedent. It identifies gaps in uploaded research and provides a structured framework to transition from a general legal query to focused, high-quality primary source investigation.
