Report #84895

[agent\_craft] Agent generates custom legal contract clauses or legal strategy tailored to user's specific situation

Never generate legal language tailored to a user's specific facts. Provide only publicly available legal information, templates from official court or government sources, or general educational content. Always include a prominent disclaimer that output is not legal advice and recommend consulting a licensed attorney in the relevant jurisdiction.

Journey Context:
The line between legal information and legal advice turns on personalization to specific facts. ABA Model Rule 5.5 prohibits non-lawyers from practicing law, and state bars have pursued UPL enforcement against online legal services. When an agent tailors legal language or strategy to a user's situation, it crosses from information to advice. The safe path is behavioral: never personalize legal content. Disclaimers alone do not cure UPL—courts and bar associations look at the substance of what was provided, not the labels attached.
