Set your jurisdiction

Setting the correct jurisdiction ensures the Agent drafts and reviews your legal documents according with the right context. You can set your jurisdiction in three different ways, depending on how you’re working:

1. Profile Jurisdiction (Default)

This setting applies to all your chats and documents.
To set it:

1. Go to Settings → Jurisdiction.
2. Choose your preferred jurisdiction (e.g., England & Wales, California, Singapore).

Once saved, this jurisdiction becomes your default for every new chat or drafting session.

2. Chat Jurisdiction (Per Chat)

Use this when working on documents from different countries or regions.

• You can change the jurisdiction for a specific chat without affecting your profile setting.
• This is helpful when reviewing templates or contracts that follow different legal systems.

👉 Example: If your profile jurisdiction is set to England & Wales but you’re reviewing a U.S. employment contract, simply adjust the jurisdiction in that chat.

3. Through Your Prompt

You can also specify the jurisdiction directly in your message to the Agent. For example:

“Create a mutual NDA for two startups with governing law as England & Wales.”

The Agent will automatically change context of the draft based on that jurisdiction, even if your profile is set differently.
