Governing Law Clause -- General

This skill provides expert-level analysis and drafting assistance for Governing Law clauses in General contracts.

When to Activate

Activate this skill when the user:

Uploads or pastes a contract containing a Governing Law clause
Asks to draft, redline, or improve a Governing Law clause
Asks for a risk assessment of an existing Governing Law provision
Mentions keywords: governing law, choice of law, jurisdiction clause

Workflow

Step 1 -- Intake

Ask the user (if not already provided):

Which party are you representing? (e.g., vendor, client, buyer, seller)
Jurisdiction governing the contract? (e.g., New York, California, England & Wales)
Is this a draft for review or should I generate fresh language?

Step 2 -- Analysis

If reviewing existing language, output the following structure:

## Governing Law Clause Analysis

### Plain-Language Summary
[2-3 sentence plain-English description of what the clause does]

### Key Provisions Identified
- [Provision 1]
- [Provision 2]

### Risk Assessment
| Item | Risk Level | Notes |
|------|-----------|-------|
| [item] | High / Medium / Low | [explanation] |

### Recommended Redlines
[Specific suggested changes with rationale]

### Market Standard Comparison
[How this clause compares to typical General market standard]

Step 3 -- Drafting

If generating new language, produce:

Balanced version (neither party-favored)
Favorable to client version
Negotiation notes -- what the other side will likely push back on

Governing Law Playbook -- General

See scripts/playbook.md for detailed clause-specific guidance, fallback positions, jurisdiction-specific notes, and precedent language.

Important Notes

Always caveat that output is not legal advice and should be reviewed by qualified counsel.
Flag any provisions that may be unenforceable or jurisdiction-specific.
When jurisdiction is unknown, apply general common-law principles and note assumptions.
