What our guides are
Our guides explain general legal information in India. They are not legal advice, do not assess your individual circumstances and do not replace a qualified advocate. Vakil is a technology company, not a law firm.
How we write them
We use primary sources only: Acts, rules, official notifications and circulars. We explain these in plain English, preserve important qualifications and distinguish the law from practical preparation steps.
Review
Each guide shows a “Last reviewed” date so readers can see when it was checked. We check the sources, scope and wording before publication.
How AI is used
Guides are drafted with AI assistance, checked against primary sources and reviewed by people before publishing. A second independent AI review helps flag errors; it does not replace human review or guarantee accuracy.
Keeping guides current
Guides follow a review schedule based on their subject and how frequently the law changes. We also review affected guides when Acts, rules or official notifications change. If an update is pending, we aim to make that clear rather than present outdated information as current.
Corrections
If you find an error, contact [corrections@vakil.ai] with the guide's title, the passage concerned and the relevant primary source. We review reports, correct confirmed errors and update the review date when the change is significant.
Independence
We do not accept paid placements in our guides. We do not provide lawyer referrals or rankings. Our editorial decisions are based on the usefulness and accuracy of general legal information.
