Frequently asked questions
Is this legal advice?
No. McKenzieFriend.ai is not a law firm and does not provide regulated legal advice. The platform provides general preparation tools to help organise information and improve clarity.
Can I rely on the AI outputs?
AI-generated outputs may contain errors or omissions. You must review, verify, and adapt all content before using it in any filing or communication. You remain responsible for what you submit to the court.
What do I need to get started?
You can start with key dates, a summary of your situation, and any relevant documents. The dashboard is designed to help you structure and expand from whatever information you already have.
Does this replace a solicitor?
No. If you need legal advice tailored to your circumstances, you should consult a qualified solicitor or barrister. This platform is designed to support preparation and organisation only.
