What to Ask the Lawyer

Before you sign — paste the contract and get the parts that should make you pause: the clauses that favor them, the traps, and what to push back on. Not legal advice.

Someone owes you money or won't fix a problem? A firm formal letter often works before any lawyer. Tell it the situation — get a clear demand letter. Not legal advice.

Need a basic agreement in writing — a freelance scope, a loan between friends, a simple contract? Describe it — get a clear draft to start from. Have a lawyer check anything serious.

Got an official or legal letter full of intimidating language? Paste it — get what it actually says, how serious it is, and what to do. Not legal advice, just clarity.

Something feels unfair and you don't know where you stand. Describe it — get a plain-English sense of the general legal landscape and what to do next. Not legal advice.

Deposit dispute, repairs ignored, a confusing lease? Describe it — get the general tenant/landlord principles, what to check, and your next move. Not legal advice; rules vary.

Stuck in a dispute and not sure what you can even do? Describe it — get the realistic paths (talk it out, mediation, small claims, lawyer) and how to choose. Not legal advice.

Going away and want your auto-reply to cover you (and maybe make people smile)? Tell it the dates and who to contact — get one that's clear, professional, or fun.

Drowning in email? Paste the chaos (or describe it) — it sorts what needs a reply, what to delegate, what to delete, and drafts the annoying ones.

Want to start running but everything hurts and you quit by week two? Tell it your starting point — get a gentle, build-up plan you won't abandon.

Get the process out of your head so someone else can do it. Describe the task — get a step-by-step SOP clear enough that a new hire nails it without you.

Stuck? Explain the problem to it out loud. It asks the questions that make you find your own bug — and only steps in when you're truly stuck.

New job, want to start strong without overpromising? Tell it the role — get a 30-60-90 day plan: learn first, win early, then deliver. Impresses in interviews too.

Paste your expenses or your task list. It sorts every line into cut, automate, or double down — so you make more and stress less.

About to drop real money and not sure? Tell it the purchase and your situation — get an honest gut-check on whether it's worth it, not just permission.

Avoiding something and you don't even know why? Tell it the task — it digs out what's really blocking you and gives you a first step small enough to just do.

You're bleeding money on stuff you forgot you pay for. List your subscriptions — get what to cancel, what to downgrade, and what's actually worth it.

Paste your data. Get the story behind it, the one surprising thing, and three decisions to make this week. No "it depends."

Want to switch careers but it feels impossible? Tell it where you are and where you want to go — get the realistic path, the transferable skills, and the gaps to close.

Not a 5am ice-bath fantasy. Tell it your real mornings — get a routine that fits your actual life and sets the day up without the guru nonsense.

Car, appliance, or something in the house making a worrying sound? Describe it — get the likely causes, how urgent it is, and whether it's a DIY or a 'call someone now.'

Debt across a few places and no plan? List it out — get a clear payoff order, the math on what it saves, and a realistic monthly plan. Not financial advice, just clarity.

Dump your to-do list. It cuts the busywork, picks the 3 things that actually move the needle, and time-blocks the day around them.

Big project, no idea where to start? Describe it — get it broken into clear phases and next actions, with the order and the thing to do first.
