Legal Opinion Formatter

Legal Opinion Formatter

Use this skill during Step 8 (Output Generation) when the user asks for:

• "법률 의견서" (Korean: formal legal opinion letter)
• "legal opinion"
• "opinion letter"
• "formal opinion"
• "opinion memo"
• "law-firm style"
• polished DOCX memo/opinion formatting

Inputs

• Step 6 analysis result
• User language and output format
• Jurisdiction scope and as-of date

Output Goal

Produce a clean legal-opinion document with:

1. Cover/meta block
2. Executive summary
3. Opinion question(s)
4. Jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction analysis
5. Risk matrix and practical recommendations
6. Source/citation section with verification pointers
7. Disclaimer and uncertainty notes

Read references/format-checklist.md before formatting.

Style Authority

Apply docs/style-guides/legal-research-core-contract.md plus the matching language and mode files under docs/style-guides/{en|ko}/ as the default style reference. Use docs/legal-writing-formatting-guide.md only as a detailed fallback when the split guide files do not answer a formatting question. This SKILL's directives take precedence on conflict; otherwise follow the guide.

Style Rules

1. Keep tone formal and precise; avoid conversational wording.
2. Use concise issue statements and explicit conclusions.
3. Separate "fact", "rule", "analysis", and "recommendation".
4. Mark uncertainty explicitly ([Unverified], [Unresolved Conflict] when needed).
5. Keep citation identifiers consistent with project codes ([P#], [C#], [A#], [S#], [T#]).

Sample Assets

Use sample files as visual references only:

• Files are located at the skill root (same level as references/).
• test_output_english.docx
• test_output_korean.docx

Do not copy sample facts verbatim into new outputs.
