Using the Legal Research Assistant (RAG)

The Legal Research Assistant lets you ask a question in plain language — for example, "What is the time limit to file an appeal, and how have tribunals treated late filings?" — and returns a reasoned answer built from the most relevant judgments, citing each one so you can verify it.

A few things to know:

  • Answers are written in English, regardless of the language of your question, using the terminology of the tribunal you are consulting.
  • The assistant distinguishes a tribunal's holdings from the parties' arguments, treats dissents as minority positions, and reports the outcome and remedies.
  • It draws on the actual text of the judgments, not on general knowledge, and tells you which judgments it consulted.
  • You can ask follow-up questions to refine or extend a research session.

Always verify the cited judgments against their original text before relying on the analysis. See Accuracy, verification and the limits of AI.
