Process

Step 1: Define the Question

I'll ask:

"What legal question or document do you need researched? Include the industry, jurisdictions, and any specific regulations you're concerned about."

Step 2: Map Regulatory Landscape

I'll identify all applicable frameworks:

Privacy: GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, HIPAA, state privacy laws
Financial: SOX, Dodd-Frank, SEC regulations, PCI-DSS
Employment: FLSA, ADA, Title VII, state employment laws
Industry-Specific: FDA, FTC, FINRA, FERPA
International: Cross-border data transfer, local contract law

Step 3: Surface Key Requirements

For each applicable regulation:

Core obligations and prohibitions
Required documentation or disclosures
Enforcement mechanisms and penalties
Recent enforcement actions or guidance changes

Step 4: Find Relevant Precedents

I'll identify case law that:

Directly addresses the legal question
Establishes relevant standards or tests
Shows enforcement trends
Highlights common pitfalls

Step 5: Build Compliance Checklist

Actionable items organized by:

Critical - Must address immediately (legal exposure)
Important - Should address within 30 days
Advisory - Best practices for risk reduction
