Four cases from the product

Constructed facts from Swiss employment law, entered the way a law firm enters them in the portal. What follows was produced by LEXchat: the follow-up questions of the pre-analysis and the first analysis with its sources.

What you are looking at: the output of LEXchat for constructed cases, unedited in the German original — not legal advice, not reviewed by a lawyer, unrelated to any real mandate.

Machine translation of the German original, not reviewed by a lawyer. Only the German version is authoritative.

    The "holiday purchase" is an agreement on additional holidays beyond the statutory minimum in exchange for a waiver of salary; under Art. 19 para. 1 OR it is permissible as long as the statutory minimum holiday entitlement of four weeks (Art. 329a para. 1 OR) remains untouched …

How the cases were produced

  1. The facts are constructed and every name is invented. Each case page shows them word for word as they were entered.
  2. The pre-analysis asked follow-up questions. Only what the facts already stated was answered; everything else stayed open, and the analysis had to deal with it.
  3. The first analysis is the wording of the run — nothing shortened, nothing polished. Every cited norm and decision is linked. The translation is machine-made; only the German version is authoritative.

This is what the first analysis looks like in the law-firm portal — a few minutes of computing time after your release.

The legal review stays with you. The structuring groundwork does not.
