# \[LLI] Prompting Guide
## Executive Summary
The "LLI's Prompting Guide for Legal and Compliance" is an entry-level tool offering an essential introduction into LLMs for Legal and Compliance. It presents real-world examples from prompts submitted and curated by seasoned practitioners. The content is meticulously structured along several key categories: [Contract Review (CR)](/readme/prompts-for-legal-and-compliance/contract-review-cr.md), [Legal Assessments (LA)](/readme/prompts-for-legal-and-compliance/legal-assessments-la.md), [Administrative Tasks and Conversations (ATC)](/readme/prompts-for-legal-and-compliance/administrative-tasks-and-conversations-atc.md), [Meeting Support and Summaries (MSS)](/readme/prompts-for-legal-and-compliance/meeting-support-and-summaries-mss.md), and [Project Management and Operations (PMO)](/readme/prompts-for-legal-and-compliance/project-management-and-operations-pmo.md). These categories cover a broad spectrum of the legal and compliance field. This structured approach allows readers to easily navigate through the guide, making it a valuable resource for those seeking to enhance their understanding, improve their decision-making skills, and adopt best practices in the realm of legal and compliance. The guide closes with remarks on [Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)](/readme/retrieval-augmented-generation-rag-for-legal-and-compliance.md) tools and [ethical considerations](/readme/ethics-and-disclose-of-generative-ai.md) when using GenerativeAI in legal and compliance.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://prompting.liquid-legal.org/readme.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
