The tool drafts. A human with a license signs.
A consumer's facts reach you as a cited draft, a debt-validation dispute or a fair-hearing request, ready for your review. It leaves for the consumer over your signature, or it stays a draft.

- Credential wall — attorney, attestation verbatim
- Completeness wall — zero unresolved placeholders
- Holding-out wall — no outcome promises in final text
- Grounding wall — every figure traces to a provided fact
Four walls. Each one fails closed.
The state machine is the product. A draft becomes RELEASED only when every wall passes, and every transition lands in the artifact's audit trail, refusals included.
Credential Wall
Only an allowed credential can countersign: an attorney or a DOJ-accredited representative, entering the attestation word for word. No credential, no release.
Completeness Wall
A fact the consumer didn't provide becomes [BRACKETED — NOT PROVIDED]. Nothing is filled in by guesswork, and a draft with an unresolved placeholder cannot release.
Holding-Out Wall
The wall reads the final text at release time and blocks outcome promises, "robot lawyer" and "no attorney needed". It is the FTC's DoNotPay lesson, enforced in code.
Grounding Wall
Every dollar amount and date in a released body must trace to a fact a person provided, in the consumer's intake or the reviewer's edits. The guard refuses anything it can't trace.
The supervision your rules already require
ABA Formal Opinion 512 (2024) addresses this shape: lawyers may use assistive tools when they supervise, verify and take responsibility. Countersign enforces that posture, and the audit trail is your evidence that you did.
Facts In
A consumer's intake becomes a draft built from a cited template. The citation, its source and the date it was verified travel with the draft.
Review the Checklist
The bench writes a review checklist from the cited rule, so a limited-scope engagement becomes a structured review.
Countersign or Refuse
Your attestation releases the artifact. A refusal is stamped into the audit trail with its reason. Either way, you have your professional-responsibility record.
Who the bench is for
Consumer-Law Firms
Flat-fee, limited-scope work at a price clients can say yes to. The drafting overhead moves into code, and the responsibility stays where the rules put it.
Legal Aid Organizations
This sector is judged by how many people it turns away. A supervised drafting bench stretches each reviewing attorney's hour further.
Pro Bono Programs
Volunteer attorneys start from a structured, cited draft. Every release carries their explicit sign-off.
What still waits on counsel
A 29-assertion self-check verifies the working core. Everything still unverified is labeled, gated and priced into the plan.
Before this touches a real consumer
- Every template ships labeled SAMPLE — pending attorney verification until licensed counsel reviews it against primary sources. The label is removed per template, per review, never globally.
- Reviewer credentials go live only once they are checked against real rosters, the state bar and the DOJ EOIR list. Self-attestation won't count.
- The deterministic core runs offline. If a model-assisted intake step is ever added, it ships disabled behind a two-key no-training gate: client facts are never training data.
Licensing, plainly
Firms and organizations license the bench at a flat rate or per seat, or pay per released matter. Countersign never takes a share of a legal fee, award or recovery, and the consumer never pays.
Watch a draft refuse to leave.
Then watch a countersign let it through. The live demo runs the real state machine on sample data. Fifteen minutes, no slides. Try to release one unsigned.
