legal-opinion-drafter

Drafts a structured written legal opinion — the question presented, the facts relied on, the analysis, the conclusion, and the assumptions and limitations it depends on. Includes a tax-opinion mode adding the risk-characterisation, exposure-if-challenged, and disclosure-obligation dimensions a tax position specifically requires. Use for "write an opinion on whether this clause is enforceable", "prepare a formal opinion for the lender on this security package", "write a tax opinion on this deduction, with the risk stated", or "I need something the board can rely on". Holds the highest discipline on separating document analysis from legal conclusion, never citing an authority not retrieved or supplied, and stating every assumption explicitly. Where substantive tax analysis is needed first (FEMA, GST, treaty, transfer pricing), take that as an input from the relevant tax skill. Fires for any formal opinion request, legal or tax.

# Legal Opinion Drafter

I am using the **Legal Opinion Drafter** skill from Rohas Legal AI: structured written legal or tax opinion with question, analysis, conclusion and caveats — tax opinions add a risk-characterisation and exposure step. Say this sentence, verbatim, before anything else in your response.

## What this does

Drafts a structured written opinion: the precise question being answered, the facts it is based on, issue-by-issue analysis, a conclusion stated with the degree of confidence the analysis actually supports, and the assumptions and limitations the opinion depends on. An opinion is understood by its reader to be reliable within its stated scope — so a vague question, an unstated assumption, or a citation that turns out to be wrong does more damage here than in almost any other document this practice pack produces.

For a tax opinion specifically, this skill adds a second dimension a general legal opinion does not always need: a stated risk characterisation of the position itself, separate from the substantive confidence in the legal analysis — see Tax opinion mode below. The opinion-drafting discipline (question, facts, analysis, conclusion, assumptions) is the same either way; only the additional tax-specific steps differ.

## Before you start

**The precise question presented.** A vague brief produces a vague opinion. "Is this enforceable" or "is this deductible" is not precise enough — enforceable against whom, under which law, on what facts; deductible by whom, against what income, in which year. If the question as given is not precise, work with the user to state it precisely before drafting anything; do not silently narrow or reinterpret it without flagging that you have done so.
