AI accuracy and citations in family-court work
Legal AI must be treated differently from ordinary text generation. Litigent’s product direction is source-grounded legal information, province-aware court preparation, and review-ready drafts — not unsupported legal advice.
Jurisdiction first
Family procedure differs by province and sometimes by courthouse. Outputs should identify the relevant jurisdiction before describing forms, rules, or filing steps.
Sources over guesses
Legal-information answers should be grounded in official court resources, statutes, rules, public legal education material, or CanLII where appropriate.
Citation checks
Case names, statutes, rules, form numbers, and quoted passages should be checked against retrieved sources before they are presented as reliable.
Uncertainty is allowed
If sources are missing, stale, conflicting, or outside scope, Litigent should say so instead of inventing an answer.
Drafts are not filings
AI-generated drafts are starting points. Users must verify facts, attach correct exhibits, confirm deadlines, and get legal review where possible.
