- Manual professional legal text summarization is the process of creating a concise and accurate summary of a legal document by a human expert. This is a complex and time-consuming task, as it requires a deep understanding of the law, the specific legal document being summarized, and the intended audience for the summary.
- Here are some of the steps involved in manual professional legal text summarization:
- Read the document carefully and identify the main points. This includes understanding the factual background of the case, the legal issues involved, and the court's decision.
- Analyze the document and identify the most important information. This may involve considering the relevance of the information to the intended audience, the legal significance of the information, and the overall structure of the document.
- Write a summary that is concise, accurate, and complete. The summary should include the most important information from the document, but it should also be easy to read and understand.
