Write a law firm client alert on a new law or ruling
A timely, skimmable client alert explaining what changed, who it affects, and what to do now, with the disclaimers a law firm needs.
The prompt
Write a client alert for my law firm about a legal development.
Development: [NEW STATUTE, REGULATION, RULING, OR AGENCY GUIDANCE - with citation]
Source text or summary: [PASTE THE KEY PASSAGES OR OUR INTERNAL MEMO]
Effective date and key deadlines: [DATES]
Who it affects: [e.g. "employers with 15+ employees in Illinois"]
Our practice group and authors: [NAMES]
Distribution: [email list / website / LinkedIn]
Structure (600-900 words):
1. A headline that names the change and the affected group.
2. "Key takeaways": three to five bullets a busy general counsel can read in 30 seconds.
3. What changed, explained in plain language, with only citations I have provided.
4. Who is affected and who is not; note open questions and areas still unsettled.
5. What to do now: a short, practical action list with dates in bold.
6. How we can help, in one or two sentences, and author contact details.
7. Disclaimer: this alert is general information, not legal advice, and does not create an attorney-client relationship; plus an "Attorney Advertising" label if my state requires it [CONFIRM].
Also write: an email subject line and preview text, and a LinkedIn post of under 150 words linking to the alert.
Rules: never invent case names, citations, section numbers, dates, or penalties; if something is not in my source, mark it [CONFIRM]. Avoid alarmist language. A responsible attorney must review for accuracy before publication.
Highlighted [brackets] are blanks to replace with your own details.

How this prompt is built
This prompt follows the RTF structure (Role, Task, Format). RTF tells the model who to be, what to do and what shape the answer should take. It is the quickest structure that still gives noticeably better results than a bare request.
