Claude Cowork Plugin

⚖️Paralegal

Draft legal documents, summarize cases, and write client correspondence

4
commands
2
skills

The Paralegal plugin helps you with legal document drafting, case research, case summaries, and client correspondence. Every command works standalone — describe your case details or scenario and get a structured draft ready for attorney review.

Use /legal-draft to generate first drafts of contracts, demand letters, discovery responses, and legal memoranda from your case details and parameters. Use /research-memo to draft structured legal research memos organizing case holdings, statutory analysis, and key precedents. Use /case-summary to create concise case summaries, deposition digests, and chronological case timelines from your notes. Use /client-letter to draft professional client correspondence, status updates, and case progress reports maintaining appropriate privilege boundaries.

The plugin's skills activate automatically when relevant: legal writing expertise for contracts, memoranda, discovery, and correspondence, plus legal research skills for case analysis, statutory interpretation, and precedent identification.
