Does Luminary provide legal advice or draft estate planning documents?
No. Luminary does not offer document drafting or other legal services. It helps attorneys review existing documents, analyze potential strategies, work more efficiently with investment and tax advisors, and communicate more effectively with clients so that the value of your counsel is better understood and appreciated.
Can Luminary help us assess a new client’s existing plan?
Yes. Luminary can create meaningful analysis from partial inputs, including a balance sheet, trust summaries, or an estate plan presentation or review from a prior advisor or planning platform. It also analyzes full estate files, giving your team a clear view of the plan and potential discussion topics for an initial planning conversation.
How can attorneys verify AI-generated information?
Luminary provides source citations and customizable review controls so attorneys can identify, validate, and prioritize planning considerations with confidence. Every important detail can be traced back to the governing language in the underlying document.
Does Luminary AI train models with client data?
No. Neither Luminary nor our model provider partners train on client data, and our AI does not retain any data after workloads are processed.
Can we assess a proposed strategy before drafting the documents?
Yes. With Luminary, you can test how gifting, charitable strategies, growth, and tax assumptions could affect distributions, liquidity, and estate tax. This gives attorneys a clearer way to evaluate options before making a legal recommendation.
Can Luminary help explain the plan and our recommendations to clients?
Yes. Turn legal analysis into firm-branded client deliverables with clear views of fiduciaries, beneficiaries, distributions, assets, and potential outcomes. Use live diagrams and scenarios in the meeting to answer questions in context and make the recommendation easier for clients to understand. Let Luminary AI assist you in creating memos that enable you to communicate key points and considerations.
