Produces an 8-point litigation risk memo that scores claim strength on a 1-10 scale, estimates discovery costs and settlement value range, and recommends whether to litigate or settle. Use it before any significant dispute to pressure-test a legal position and set realistic client expectations.

CLAIMS AT ISSUE: [LIST CLAIMS]
KEY FACTS:
[PROVIDE DETAILED FACTUAL SUMMARY]
Please analyze:
1. Strength of each claim/defense on a scale of 1-10 with explanation
2. Key factual disputes that will drive the outcome
3. Likely discovery costs and timeline
4. Settlement value range with reasoning
5. Best-case and worst-case outcomes for our client
6. Recommended litigation strategy (including whether to file/defend or pursue alternative resolution)
7. Key depositions and documents to prioritize
8. Potential dispositive motions and likelihood of success
