Prompt

Act as a legal research assistant. I will describe [your legal issue or dispute]. Structure a comprehensive legal argument: 1. Issue Statement — frame the legal question precisely. 2. Rule — identify the relevant legal principles, statutes, or precedents that govern this issue. 3. Application — apply the rules to the facts. Show how the facts satisfy (or fail to satisfy) each element. 4. Counter-Argument — what is the strongest argument the opposing side would make? 5. Rebuttal — how do I respond to that counter-argument? 6. Policy Argument — beyond the letter of the law, why does the desired outcome serve justice or public interest? 7. Conclusion — state the expected outcome based on the analysis. Use IRAC structure throughout. This is analytical assistance, not legal advice.
