ChatGPT for Family Lawyers™ — Module 2: Drafting Pleadings and Orders Using AI Tools Drafting pleadings and proposed orders is a core part of family law practice, yet it is also one of the most time-intensive and repetitive tasks. Module 2 of *ChatGPT for Family Lawyers™* focuses on how AI tools can be used ethically and responsibly to create strong first drafts of common family law documents, while ensuring attorneys retain full control over legal strategy and final work product. Participants learn how to structure prompts to generate organized, usable draft frameworks for motions, notices, and proposed orders, and how to edit AI-generated content so it reflects accurate facts, proper tone, and jurisdiction-specific practice standards. The module emphasizes that AI is used only to assist with structure and efficiency, not legal conclusions. Through live demonstrations using hypothetical scenarios, the course shows how AI can assist with: • Drafting motion frameworks and supporting paragraphs • Converting advocacy-based pleadings into neutral proposed orders • Formatting documents for court-ready presentation Special attention is given to identifying when AI should not be used, including fact-intensive filings and emergency motions. Ethical responsibilities, confidentiality concerns, and attorney supervision obligations are reinforced throughout the training. This module is designed for family law attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants who regularly prepare pleadings and court filings and want to reduce drafting time without sacrificing quality or professionalism. All demonstrations use fictional facts, and no confidential client information is involved. Participants leave with practical drafting workflows they can immediately apply in daily practice, along with the skills needed to review and refine AI-assisted drafts effectively.
