Capability · Opinions
A full written opinion, reasoned the way you'd write it.
The question presented, the law that applies, the analysis on your facts, and a reasoned conclusion. Miss Lucy researches first and writes the opinion on top of that research, with the citations checked before it reaches you.
What she does
- Writes a complete opinion in the structure you expect: question presented, the statute and the case authority, the analysis on your facts, and a reasoned conclusion.
- Researches before she writes, so the reasoning rests on authority she actually pulled and not on recollection.
- Checks the citations against the knowledge base, reporter cites and sections both. Where a citation cannot be checked, the opinion says so.
How it works
- 1
Give her the question and the facts
State the issue and the facts the way you'd brief a junior. Where the facts are thin she asks, instead of guessing.
- 2
She researches before she writes
The statute, the cases, the exceptions. She does the research first and says what she is doing, so the opinion stands on real sources.
- 3
She writes the opinion on that research
The question, the law, how it applies to your facts, and a reasoned conclusion. Each step tied to the authority she pulled, with paragraph numbers you can check.
- 4
You get the opinion, with its sources on the page
The finished opinion comes with the authorities set out beside the reasoning, so you can test the argument against its own sources before you sign it.
“Opinion on whether our client's non-compete clause is enforceable post-employment”
She frames the question, sets out Section 27 of the Contract Act and the cases on restraint of trade, separates the during-employment cases from the post-termination ones, applies the test to your clause and the client's facts, and states the risk plainly. She also flags the one judgment a court could lean on against you. The cites are checked and the reasoning is on the page for you to test.
By hand vs with Miss Lucy
It replaces the slow first draft: the research, the assembly and the structuring. You start from a reasoned opinion instead of a blank page.
| The task | By hand | With Miss Lucy |
|---|---|---|
| Pull the law together for the opinion | Research across databases, then assemble the authorities by hand | She researches first and writes the opinion on that research |
| Structure the reasoning | Draft question, law, analysis and conclusion from a blank page | A full draft in the expected structure, reasoned step by step |
| Stand behind the citations | Re-check every cite and paragraph number before you sign | Citations are checked, and fabricated ones blocked, before delivery |
What she won’t do
- It is a strong first draft for you to review and adopt. The professional judgment, and the responsibility for the opinion, stay yours.
- She shows the research and the citations so you can check the reasoning rather than take it on trust.
- She will not invent authority to close a gap. Where the law is unsettled or thin, she says so instead of overstating the conclusion.
