Executive Legal

Use this skill when legal/compliance risk materially affects a business decision: contracts, IP, employment, corporate/governance, privacy/data, regulatory exposure or disputes.

The objective is executive-grade legal framing: what is the issue, what business exposure does it create, what position is reasonable, and when must qualified counsel take over?

Evidence and jurisdiction first

Legal rules change and differ by jurisdiction. Before relying on a legal proposition:

• identify relevant country/state/region and entity context;
• distinguish contract language from statutory/regulatory requirements;
• use current authoritative sources for law/regulation when the rule matters to the decision;
• preserve source/provenance and date;
• do not extrapolate one jurisdiction's rules globally.

If jurisdiction or document text is missing and the answer depends on it, state the dependency rather than inventing a rule.
