What Claude can do once connected
| Tool | What it does | Access |
|---|---|---|
| Case Law Search | Searches case law, court judgments, and precedents. | Read-only |
| Legislation Search | Searches laws, statutes and statutory instruments for current law. | Read-only |
| Legal Forms & Procedures | Finds the correct court forms, filing procedures, and process steps. | Read-only |
| Legal Provider Search | Finds law firms, solicitors, mediators, expert witnesses and free legal clinics working in the relevant area, ordered by your saved location. | Read-only |
| Search Document Templates | Searches Libra's England & Wales document library by use case; returns drafting guidance if nothing matches. | Read-only |
| Get Document Template | Retrieves a specific template's structure, guidance, and required fields. | Read-only |
| Finalize Document | Turns a drafted document into a Word (.docx) file and gives you a private download link. | Creates files |
| Settlement Calculator | Produces tentative settlement estimates for personal injury and divorce matters. Estimates for discussion only. | Read-only |
Seven of the eight tools are read-only — they only look things up. Finalize Document is the one that creates something: it saves your finished document to Libra's secure storage and gives you a private download link that only you receive. It never modifies or deletes anything.
Example prompts
- "What have UK courts said about landlords' repair obligations under section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985?"
- "Which form do I need to apply for a non-molestation order, and what's the procedure?"

Important limitations
Libra provides legal information, not legal advice and Libra is not a regulated law firm. The service can connect you to regulated lawyers where you need advice. Outputs are research assistance and starting points, not a substitute for a qualified lawyer. Settlement figures are indicative estimates only.
Coverage varies by capability
- Case law, legislation, and forms & procedures cover UK law initially and new territories are being added, starting with New York Law. Results flag where a provision belongs to a jurisdiction-specific, so always check that a cited section applies to your jurisdiction.
- Document templates and drafting guidance are England & Wales only.
- Settlement estimates follow England & Wales practice (Judicial College Guidelines and Ogden tables).
