| Abstract | Despite increasing use of large language models to aid analysis of legal documents, current systems often generate responses that are not grounded in the source contract, resulting in hallucinations, omissions or misinterpretations of obligations, and low user trust in LegalTech solutions that require guaranteed traceability and accuracy. Most current pipelines either retrieve context on a paragraph or higher level, or use general-purpose semantic search, which are inadequate for high clause-density, rigid legal documents. Critical clauses may be skipped or the passages retrieved are insufficient to provide a direct answer. Furthermore, a pipeline doesn't guarantee the last response is derived solely from retrieved passages and the generation process may still introduce additional assumptions and knowledge. These problems would get worse when handling multiple documents with diverse formats, paragraph numbering standards, and legal drafting conventions, where retrieval reliability and consistency decreases and error rates grow cumulatively. To tackle these limitations, we propose a novel clause-aware, multi-agent pipeline which partitions documents into clause-level units, retrieves and ranks clauses with dynamic and dynamic clause weighting per query, and conditions generation solely on retrieved clauses. Our proposed method guarantees evidence-backed and traceable responses and increases consistency over documents and decreases unsupported responses against state-of-the-art baselines. |
