Claude adds shared templates for legal work

Teams can adapt interactive tools to their own documents; lawyers still judge the initial results.

Three wooden trays hold paired paper strips, tabbed cards and coloured blocks on a pale blue table; a hand lifts one card.

Anthropic announced its legal gallery on October 28. The artifacts are interactive tools, including trackers and dashboards. Each starts with an example before users add their documents and connections to other systems. According to the company, outputs link to sources. Its citation checker flags mismatched quotations, incorrect page references and unsupported claims. Anthropic says Claude performs an initial pass; a lawyer then evaluates the result.

Harvey describes a template that legal teams share with colleagues for submitting questions and requests in Claude. It connects to Harvey through a software connection called MCP. Routine answers draw on the legal team’s guidance and prior work. Requests requiring legal judgment go to a lawyer in Harvey, whose response returns to Claude. Every request is logged, and requesters can follow its status. In the company’s example, a salesperson submits a customer’s edited contract; the assigned lawyer reviews it in Harvey and sends the revised document back through Claude.

Goodwin offers a different starting point: users answer questions about their organization’s use and governance of AI. The firm says its tool identifies gaps and priorities. Users may then contact Goodwin for further help; that follow-up is a choice after the assessment.

The release was also covered by The Decoder.
