Jurisdiction: United States

Legal agent skills for United States

Federal law, fifty state codes, and a constitutional structure that divides authority between them make the United States one of the most layered legal systems any practitioner navigates — a contract dispute resolved in Delaware Chancery Court sits in a fundamentally different procedural world from one litigated in a California superior court or a federal district court applying Erie doctrine. The agent-ready legal skills covering United States law in the ThomasMore catalog are built for that complexity, spanning corporate transactions, securities compliance, employment, intellectual property, real estate, immigration, data privacy, and civil litigation across both federal and state regimes.

Each skill is a concrete, reusable capability — drafting an acquisition agreement under Delaware corporate law, screening a disclosure against SEC requirements, mapping state consumer-privacy obligations after CCPA, or building a workforce reduction checklist under the WARN Act — and every one is reachable over MCP or available as a download for direct integration. The collection draws on contributions from practitioners who work in these areas daily, keeping skills current as courts interpret new statutes and agencies issue revised guidance. Because US practice so often crosses state lines or intersects with federal preemption questions, skills are tagged by practice area so you can layer a federal framework skill alongside a state-specific one for the same matter. Filter by practice area, license, or author to find the capability that fits the jurisdiction your work is actually in.
