Legal Quality Evaluation

• Assess work products for correctness, completeness, judgement, and usefulness
• Identify material legal errors or omissions
• Evaluate whether legal reasoning is coherent and adequately supported
• Assess whether recommendations would be useful in actual immigration practice

Written Legal Reasoning
