    Write a best-interest-of-the-child memo for a custody dispute. First, list my jurisdiction's statutory best-interest factors and cite the source (do not invent factors — if you are unsure, tell me to confirm the list locally). Then, for each factor, map the relevant facts I provide for and against my client's position, and rate the factor as favorable / neutral / unfavorable with a one-line reason. End with the two or three factors most likely to decide the case and what evidence would strengthen each. Facts: [PASTE]. Jurisdiction: [JURISDICTION]. Analysis for attorney review only; not a prediction of any judge's ruling.

If you are not certain a citation is current or correctly numbered, say so explicitly and tell me to confirm it against the official regulator text rather than presenting your best guess as settled law.
  • Adverse Authority Sweep: What the Other Side Left OutMemoExpertDisputes / Litigation
    Act as a reviewer instructed to argue against the document below. Scope: the issue [ISSUE] in [JURISDICTION], on the record as it stands — do not assume facts that are not in the document. Your job is to surface what a diligent opponent or a hostile judge would find and the draft does not address. Where you cannot confirm an authority exists and says what you think it says, mark it Unverified and leave it to a human. Return: (1) Omitted Adverse Authority — cases, statutes, regulations or guidance cutting against the position taken, each with what it holds and precisely why it hurts; (2) Distinguishable versus Fatal — split the above into items we can distinguish (with the distinguishing fact) and items that go to the heart of the argument; (3) Their Best Version — the strongest opposing submission on this issue, written in one or two paragraphs as they would write it, not as a summary; (4) Weak Links — the step in our chain of reasoning that fails first under pressure, and the question that exposes it; (5) Candour Items — authority that in [JURISDICTION] we may be obliged to disclose even though it is against us, flagged for a human to confirm against the local rules rather than asserted; (6) Answers — a short, usable response to each item marked fatal, or an honest statement that there is no good answer; (7) Research Gaps — the searches a human must run to close this out, written as actual queries with the database and date range; (8) Coverage Note — where your review may be incomplete and why. Document: [PASTE].
  • Islamic Inheritance (Fara'id) Issue-SpotterMemoExpertIslamic Finance & Sharia
    Act as succession counsel preparing an issue-spotting memo on the estate of [DECEASED], who died [DATE] domiciled in [COUNTRY], leaving [SURVIVING RELATIVES, with relationship, line and whether alive at the date of death] and [ASSETS AND WHERE THEY SIT]. Do not compute the shares. Fixed shares under fara'id depend on the complete set of surviving heirs and on the school of law applied, and a share stated on incomplete facts is worse than no answer — so your job is to establish what must be known and who must decide, not to produce fractions. Do not state a rule you cannot attribute to a named code, ruling or authoritative text; mark it To Be Confirmed. Return: (1) Facts Still Missing — every fact that could change the outcome, as a numbered questionnaire the family can answer, covering relatives who exclude others, order of deaths where two died close together, adoption and acknowledged paternity, and religion of each heir; (2) Applicable Regime — which law governs succession to each asset (domicile, nationality, location of the asset, any election made in a will), and where the answer differs between an asset in [COUNTRY] and one abroad; (3) Heir Map — the surviving relatives arranged by category, marking who is a fixed-share heir, who is a residuary, and who is excluded by the presence of another, with the question mark on each uncertain branch; (4) Prior Charges — funeral costs, debts, and any bequest, in the order they come off the estate before distribution; (5) Bequest Limits — the disposable portion, whether a bequest to an heir needs the other heirs' consent, and what happens to an over-large bequest; (6) Cross-Border Friction — assets in a non-applying jurisdiction, foreign wills, joint accounts, life policies and company shares, each with the conflict it creates; (7) Process Map — the court or authority that issues the succession certificate in [COUNTRY], the documents required, translation and legalisation needs, and the realistic timeline; (8) Referral Note — the precise question to put to a qualified succession practitioner and, where the family wishes, to a scholar. This is a fact-gathering aid, not a share calculation and not legal or Sharia advice.
  • Enforcing a Foreign Judgment in a MENA StateMemoEnterpriseArbitration
    Act as enforcement counsel advising [CREDITOR] on enforcing a judgment obtained from [ORIGINATING COURT AND COUNTRY] on [DATE] for [AMOUNT AND RELIEF] against [DEBTOR] whose assets are in [TARGET COUNTRY]. Known facts: [WHETHER THE DEBTOR APPEARED, HOW SERVICE WAS EFFECTED, WHETHER ANY APPEAL REMAINS, WHAT ASSETS ARE KNOWN AND WHERE]. This is a foreign court judgment, not an arbitral award — the routes are different and the treaty framework is different, so start by identifying which instrument, if any, connects these two states, and whether the target country instead requires proof of reciprocity. Do not assert a treaty status, a reservation or a limitation period you cannot attribute to a named source; mark it To Be Confirmed for local counsel. Return: (1) Route Options — the bilateral treaty, regional convention or domestic reciprocity route available, each with what it requires and how long it takes, and a clear statement where none applies and the claim must be brought afresh; (2) Threshold Conditions — jurisdiction of the originating court as the target court would assess it, proper service, finality, absence of a conflicting local judgment, and reciprocity where required, each with the evidence that proves it; (3) Public Policy Screen — the elements of the judgment most likely to be refused locally (interest awards, punitive or multiple damages, costs orders, relief unknown to the local system, matters reserved to local courts), and whether partial enforcement of the rest is possible; (4) Document Pack — certified copy, certificate of finality, proof of service, translation by a licensed translator, and the legalisation or apostille chain, with who issues each and in what order; (5) Procedure — the court or execution department that hears it, the form of application, whether the merits can be reopened, the debtor's likely defences, and the appeal route; (6) Asset Recovery Plan — attachment, travel bans where available, bank and registry searches, and what can be secured before the debtor is on notice; (7) Timing and Cost — a realistic range with the assumptions behind it, and the limitation period to confirm; (8) Alternative Strategy — where enforcement looks weak, whether re-litigating locally, enforcing in a third country, or settling is the better route, with the reason. This is a strategy aid for a qualified local practitioner, not legal advice.
  • Custody and Guardianship Under Personal Status LawMemoExpertFamily Law
    Act as family counsel preparing a briefing memo for [CLIENT] on the position of the children in [COUNTRY], where personal status matters are governed by [the applicable personal status law / a civil personal status regime for non-Muslims / the law of the parties' religious community]. Facts: [MARITAL STATUS AND DATE OF ANY SEPARATION, CHILDREN WITH AGES AND SEX, EACH PARENT'S NATIONALITY, RELIGION AND RESIDENCE, WHO THE CHILDREN LIVE WITH NOW, ANY TRAVEL OR RELOCATION PLAN, ANY EXISTING ORDER]. The single most useful thing you can do is separate day-to-day care from legal guardianship — in many of these systems they sit with different parents, and a client who assumes one word covers both will make the wrong decision. Do not state an age threshold, a presumption or a procedural rule you cannot attribute to a named source; mark it To Be Confirmed for local counsel. Return: (1) Two Concepts, Plainly — what day-to-day custody covers and what legal guardianship covers in this system, and the concrete decisions that fall under each (schooling, medical treatment, passports, travel, bank accounts, residence); (2) Who Holds What Now — on these facts, the likely allocation and the factors that drive it, each flagged as a question with the provision you believe applies; (3) Change Triggers — the events that commonly shift the position (a child reaching a stated age, the custodian remarrying, relocation, a parent's conduct or capacity, a change of religion), and what happens at each; (4) Travel and Relocation — whose consent is needed to travel or move abroad with a child, how a travel ban or a border alert works here, and what happens if a child is already outside the country; (5) Financial Consequences — maintenance for the children and for the custodian, housing, and how these are calculated or evidenced locally; (6) Evidence and Documents — what the court will actually want to see, and what the client should be assembling now; (7) Procedure — the court or committee that decides, whether mediation or a family guidance step comes first, the realistic timeline, and the appeal route; (8) Client Briefing Note — a plain-language page the client can read, listing what they can decide alone, what needs the other parent, and the three questions to put to a local family practitioner. This is a briefing aid for a qualified local practitioner, not legal advice.
  • Civil Code Lens on a Contract: Good Faith, Abuse of Right and HardshipMemoExpertCorporate / Commercial
    Act as counsel re-reading a contract through the civil code of [COUNTRY] rather than through the common-law assumptions it was probably drafted on. Paste the contract or the clauses in issue, and state [WHAT HAS GONE WRONG, WHAT EACH SIDE WANTS TO DO NOW, THE GOVERNING LAW CLAUSE, THE FORUM CLAUSE, AND WHETHER PERFORMANCE IS IN THE SAME COUNTRY AS THE CHOSEN LAW]. Most cross-border agreements in this region are drafted in an English-law style and then performed before a civil-law court that will apply its own mandatory rules whatever the contract says. Your job is to find where the drafting assumes a freedom the code does not give, and where the code gives a party a right the contract never mentioned. Do not state a code article or a settled position you cannot attribute to a named source; mark it To Be Confirmed for local counsel. Return: (1) Assumption Audit — the drafting assumptions that do not travel (entire agreement, no implied terms, termination for convenience, liquidated damages as agreed and unreviewable, sole discretion, waiver by conduct, notice as a strict condition), each with what the local code is likely to do to it; (2) Good Faith — how a duty of good faith in performance and negotiation could change the position here, and the conduct on each side that would be read against it; (3) Abuse of Right — whether exercising a right in the contract (calling a guarantee, terminating, refusing consent, insisting on a technical breach) could be challenged as abusive on these facts, and what evidence that turns on; (4) Hardship and Force Majeure — whether the court can adjust or suspend obligations when performance becomes excessively onerous rather than impossible, how that differs from the contract's own force majeure clause, and which one governs; (5) Damages and Penalties — whether an agreed damages figure can be reduced or increased by the court, whether loss must be proven, and how limitation and exclusion clauses fare; (6) Mandatory Overrides — the rules that apply regardless of the chosen foreign law, and the realistic prospect that the chosen law and forum are respected at all; (7) Redraft Notes — clause by clause, the wording change that makes the intent survive a civil-law reading; (8) Position and Questions — what this means for the client's next move, and the questions for local counsel before acting. This is an analysis aid for a qualified local practitioner, not legal advice.
