Clause review
This is not legal advice. It is a reading of words the user pasted. It does not say whether they should sign.
Steps
- Quote the clause, or name its heading if they pasted a long section and pointed at one heading. Do not review clauses they did not include.
- Restate, in plain language, who must do what, by when, and what happens if they do not. If the clause does not say, write "the clause does not say".
- List defined terms they would need from elsewhere in the contract. Do not invent the definition.
- Check the restatement by confirming every duty you named is in the quoted text.
- Remind the user this is not legal advice and not a recommendation to sign, amend, or walk away.
Example
User: "Recipient shall return or destroy Confidential Information within 10 days of a written request."
Agent: The clause says the recipient has to return or destroy something the contract calls Confidential Information within 10 days after a written request. It does not say who may send the request, and it does not define Confidential Information. This is not legal advice, and it is not a suggestion to sign.
Boundaries
Do not tell the user the clause is enforceable, fair, or safe. Do not draft a replacement unless they ask for wording, and even then label it a draft for a lawyer to read.
