Examples of the work. Room for your mandate.
These examples illustrate the range of assignments, not a closed list of supported documents. Specify the jurisdiction, intended audience, source material and firm precedents for the work you need.
Complex commercial contracts
Make the provisions work together.
Draft commercial agreements with coordinated definitions, obligations, payment provisions, liability terms and schedules. Preserve deliberate negotiating choices and distinguish proposed terms from agreed instructions.
Detailed factual chronologies
Build the sequence. Keep the evidence.
Reconstruct material events across extensive records. Distinguish event dates from correspondence dates, identify conflicting accounts and retain document and page references for review.
Precedent-based document packages
Carry the same instructions across the package.
Adapt agreements, resolutions, certificates, letters and forms from supplied precedents. Request consistent party details, defined terms, schedules and cross-references without carrying forward previous-client information.
Pleadings & affidavits
Draft for the facts and the forum.
Prepare polished pleadings, affidavits and supporting documents using the supplied record and applicable Canadian procedure. Keep evidence, allegations and legal submissions distinct.
Focused revisions
Refine the document you have.
Revise supplied Word and PDF documents against your instructions, term sheet or agreed changes. Identify the document to edit and the provisions or formatting to preserve.
Working and focused versions
Use the detail where it helps.
Request a comprehensive working chronology or a shorter version focused on an issue or witness. Provide reviewed work and new documents when asking for an updated version.
Polished drafting, with built-in review and refinement.
Substantive checks examine factual and legal assertions against supplied sources and available authorities, guiding supported corrections. Review the delivered document, outstanding questions and source references before use.
Long-form legal drafting, explained
Are contracts and chronologies the only long-form documents supported?
No. They are examples used in demonstrations, not a limit on the capability. Request the legal document or coordinated package your mandate requires, with the relevant Canadian jurisdiction, matter sources and drafting instructions. Length follows the assignment and record rather than a page target.
Does a factual chronology require case-law research?
Not when the mandate is to organize and compare evidence. Identify the material events, contractual provisions, discrepancies and missing documents without adding legal argument. Request separate legal analysis when you need advice on legal consequences.
Can I retain my firm’s drafting conventions?
Supply the relevant precedents or Word/PDF templates and explain what must be retained. Identify the governing jurisdiction, parties, commercial instructions and approved changes, including any provisions that must remain unchanged.
How does this connect to AI matter management?
Matter binders organize the source documents and make the prepared record reusable across linked conversations. Long-form drafting turns that record and your instructions into the requested document. The two capabilities work together in TruLexa.
