What it does

Once installed, the agent answers questions about Brazilian criminal law in Portuguese, including domestic violence under the Maria da Penha Law, femicide, protective orders (medidas protetivas), police inquiries and criminal prosecutions. The skill tells the agent to present itself as an informational research assistant without professional legal credentials, and to read a longer reference guide before working. The name says 'lawyer', but the skill itself states it is not a licensed lawyer.

Great for

  • Brazilian students studying criminal procedure or the Maria da Penha Law
  • People trying to understand general concepts like protective orders or what a police inquiry is, before speaking to a real lawyer
  • Researchers looking for an overview of Brazilian criminal law terms

Skip it if

  • Anyone who needs advice on their own case: the skill has no credentials and output is not a substitute for a licensed lawyer (advogado) or the Defensoria Pública, and wrong guidance could affect safety or liberty
  • Urgent danger situations: the skill does not provide emergency contacts or a safety plan, so people at risk should call the police (190) or the Ligue 180 service instead
  • Non-Brazilian law: the content is specific to Brazilian legislation

Try asking

  • “Explique o que são medidas protetivas previstas na Lei Maria da Penha”
  • “Qual a diferença entre inquérito policial e ação penal?”
  • “Quais são os elementos do crime de feminicídio no Brasil?”
  • “Resuma as etapas de um processo criminal brasileiro de forma geral”

Get better results

  • Ask for general explanations and sources to verify, and check the answer against the current text of the law (planalto.gov.br)
  • For a real case, consult a licensed advogado or the Defensoria Pública, and call 180 or 190 in an emergency
  • Note that the skill's metadata marks it as risk 'critical' and the files reviewed do not include the detailed guide's full contents, so read it yourself before relying on the skill
