Legal Brief Skill

This skill drafts structured legal briefs and memos using IRAC format — the standard structure for legal writing.

Required Inputs

  • Brief type (legal memo / case summary / argument outline / position paper / letter before action)
  • Legal issue or question
  • Jurisdiction (England & Wales / US / EU / Other)
  • Relevant facts
  • Relevant law or cases (if known — otherwise flagged as [RESEARCH NEEDED])
  • Audience (internal memo / court submission / client letter)

Output Structure

Header

  • To: [Recipient]
  • From: [Author]
  • Date: [Date]
  • Re: [Matter reference]
  • Confidential: Subject to legal professional privilege

Issue(s)

One sentence per legal question:

  • Issue 1: Whether X constitutes Y under [law]

Brief Answer

One sentence per issue — conclusion upfront before analysis.

Facts

Concise relevant facts only. Flag disputed facts.

Law (Rule)

  • Relevant statute, regulation, or case law
  • How the rule has been interpreted in key cases
  • Flag [RESEARCH NEEDED] where law is not provided

Application

  • Arguments in favour
  • Counter-arguments and responses
  • Areas of uncertainty flagged explicitly

Conclusion

  • Clear answer to each issue
  • Overall recommendation
  • Suggested next steps

Caveats

What this memo does not cover. What additional research would change the analysis.


WARNING: This draft requires review by a qualified legal professional. It does not constitute legal advice.

Quality Checks

  • Issue is stated as a specific legal question (not a general topic)
  • Brief answer appears before the analysis (conclusion upfront)
  • Disputed facts are explicitly flagged
  • Areas of legal uncertainty are noted (not hidden in confident language)
  • Caveats section lists what would change the analysis
  • Disclaimer is included
  • Anti-Patterns

    • Do not present uncertain legal positions with confident language — areas of legal ambiguity must be flagged explicitly, not smoothed over
    • Do not omit the disclaimer — every legal brief output must include the professional review caveat before the user treats it as advice
    • Do not structure the brief chronologically — IRAC format (Issue, Rule, Application, Conclusion) must be used regardless of how the user framed the request
    • Do not cite cases or statutes from memory without flagging them as [REQUIRES VERIFICATION] — hallucinated citations are worse than no citations
    • Do not conflate jurisdiction — legal positions in England & Wales, US, and EU can differ materially; always confirm jurisdiction before stating the rule

    Example Trigger Phrases

    • "Draft a legal memo on [issue]"
    • "Write a legal brief arguing [position]"
    • "Summarise the legal position on [topic]"
    • "Write a letter before action for [situation]"
