Work smarter with Copilot prompts for legal professionals: Review

The 'Review Contracts' unit uses a sample 'Contoso' agreement that reads more like a blog post than a legal document. It's all very neat, with Copilot summarizing key clauses in perfect bullet points. My own team's contracts are messy, full of tracked changes and ambiguous terms. I would have loved to see Copilot grapple with one of those, but this module sticks to the ideal scenario.

I took this to understand how our legal counterparts might use the tools we're all getting. It's a decent high-level tour. I see the value in asking Copilot to 'draft an email summarizing findings for stakeholders'—that's a universal PM task. But the core legal prompts feel oversimplified. It's a showcase of features, not a training on how to apply them to the chaos of real-world legal work. It gives me ideas, but it doesn't build a skill.
