A step-by-step picture of a legal task: its inputs, steps, decisions and outputs. Drawing one before automating shows where an AI tool fits and where a person needs to decide.

In real work
Yuki drew a process map of client intake and saw that only the conflict check and the fee decision needed a lawyer, not the AI tool.
In the illustration
Above the bare bed the plotting arm draws the task: an in-tray, four step boxes, one decision diamond where a person decides, and an out-tray. The map is finished and the bed below is still empty.
Turn the practice notes on client intake below into a process map in your legal AI tool: inputs, each step, who decides, and outputs. Mark which steps an AI tool could do and which need a person, and ask me about gaps.
