Adversarial document review
The Opposing Counsel Pass™
Most reviews tell a firm what its draft says. This one switches sides — it reads a Florida will or trust the way a will-contest attorney would, hunting for the weakness they'd attack in court, and hands every finding to the firm's own attorney to rule on. It runs in the attorney workspace; consumer documents on EstateDraftFL carry no automated review.
Watch it switch sides
The Opposing Counsel Pass™ in three acts
The engine drafts. Then it attacks its own work the way the other side would. Then the firm's attorney rules on every finding — nothing is final until they do.
Act I — The engine drafts
Art. VI · No-Contest Clause — drafted by the engine
If any beneficiary contests this Will or any of its provisions, that beneficiary shall forfeit all gifts made to them and shall take nothing from my estate.
Opposing Counsel Pass™ — red team finding
Enforceability · s. 732.517Unenforceable no-contest clause — the engine just objected to its own clause
“As drafted, this in terrorem clause does nothing. Fla. Stat. s. 732.517 makes a penalty-for-contesting provision in a Florida will unenforceable — so it won't deter a challenge, and it telegraphs to a contestant that you feared one.”
Possible alternative language
…strike the forfeiture penalty (void under s. 732.517) and instead deter a contest with a self-proving affidavit (s. 732.503), contemporaneous capacity evidence, and unambiguous dispositive terms…
Nothing finalizes until the last finding carries your decision.
Now you rule
Watch it think — then decide
A recorded pass shape, replayed finding by finding with its statute. When the pass finishes, the rulings are yours — the gate stays locked until the last one lands.
Watch it think — a real pass shape, fixture data
If any beneficiary contests this Will or any of its provisions, that beneficiary shall forfeit all gifts made to them and shall take nothing from my estate.
Four findings from a real pass shape — each with its statute — replay one by one. Then you rule on every finding, the way the attorney does in the workstation. The gate locks until the last ruling lands.

How: The findings decision rail's live count
The pass reads the document the way an opposing lawyer would. It knows nothing outside the document, and every finding is the attorney's to decide.

Where plans break
The attack surface we go after
Capacity & undue influence
Signals a challenger could use to argue the plan didn't reflect the testator's free, informed wishes.
Execution & witnessing gaps
Florida's signing formalities are strict. A missed step is the easiest way to void a document.
Ambiguous or contradictory terms
Language two readers could read two ways — the seam a contest pries open.
Missing contingencies
No backup beneficiary, no alternate fiduciary, no what-if — the gaps litigation lives in.
Unfunded trust
A trust that owns nothing protects nothing. Assets left outside still run through probate.
No-contest clause holes
Whether the in terrorem clause actually deters a challenge — or invites one.

How it works
- 1
Inside the attorney workspace, the firm assembles or uploads the will, trust, power of attorney, or healthcare directive.
- 2
The engine reads it adversarially — as opposing counsel preparing to challenge it — under Florida law, and lands each objection as a finding.
- 3
The firm's own attorney rules on every finding — approve, revise, or reject, on the record. Consumer documents on EstateDraftFL carry no automated review and no findings pass.
The Opposing Counsel Pass™ is software for law firms, not legal advice, and does not create an attorney-client relationship. Every finding is decided by the firm’s own attorney; nothing on the consumer lane runs it.
Read a draft the way a challenger would
Firms find the cracks before the other side does — inside the attorney workspace.
Governed engine availability
1 engine is available for this lane.
Default governed engine
Available
Every workspace run defaults to this governed lane.
Optional governed engine
Unavailable
This engine is not configured in production.
Deep-review engine
Unavailable
Available after the per-document firm price is set.
Available engines run inside the same governed pipeline: citation controls, audit evidence, spend limits, and the operative-text safety cage. Automated findings are not legal advice. Workspace runs use the default Opus lane; an alternative engine is honored only when it is available in this deployment.
