Server-side guardrails
Example rules to review and configure for your deployment.
Law is one of the few places where a confident wrong answer is malpractice, not just a bad lead. The panel below illustrates industry rules, custom rules, and intended boundaries. Configured checks target recognized patterns; they can miss context or flag harmless content. Confirm the active rules and test them for your deployment. Example messages are illustrative and must be adapted to your services and escalation workflow.

Hard limits
Intended boundaries for the configured rules. Detection and handoff are not guaranteed.
- Do not give legal advice or recommend a course of action
- Do not evaluate a case, estimate its value, or assess a deadline
- Do not draft, prepare, or template a legal document
- Keeps confidential case details out of chat and routes them to an attorney
Your custom rules
Layered on top of the pack, unique to your firm. No developer required.
The pack is the starting line, not the ceiling. Every deployment can add its own rules in the admin, block, warn, or just log on any phrase you choose, in either phase, with your own response message. They run right alongside the pack.
- BLOCKoff-topic requests that have nothing to do with your firm
- WARNbefore anyone shares confidential case details in chat
- LOGwhen a caller asks about a specific attorney or matter
These industry rules stack on top of the always-on baseline, your region’s privacy and attorney-advertising rules, and macro overlays. See how the guardrail layers work

Family law questions.
Will Fred give legal advice?
No. Advice on custody, support, or divorce requires an attorney. Fred shares general information and routes anything specific to your team. Configure and test the relevant rules; checks can miss phrasing or context.
How does Fred handle sensitive situations?
With care. Fred captures the consultation request without prying into case specifics and routes safety concerns to the right help, so a hard conversation stays human.
Can Fred evaluate someone’s case?
No. Outcomes and strategy depend on facts only an attorney can review. Fred books the consultation so your team can have that conversation properly.
Can it book consultations?
Fred captures inquiry details and sends them through your configured handoff. Delivery timing depends on the integration and receiving system. Direct calendar booking depends on the scheduling tools you already run. Our training videos show you how to connect them, or you can add a paid setup.
