๐ Introduction
When it comes to law, finance, and medicine, accuracy isnโt optional โ itโs mandatory.
Unlike casual AI use (e.g., writing an email), prompts in these domains must be:
Structured (to ensure consistency)
Domain-specific (legal, financial, or clinical terminology)
Compliant (avoid hallucinations, clarify limitations)
Well-crafted prompts can help professionals analyze documents, generate summaries, automate reports, and support decision-making โ while still requiring human validation.
๐ Legal Prompt Engineering
Use Cases
Contract analysis
Case law summarization
Compliance checks
Prompt Example 1. Contract Review
"Extract key obligations and deadlines from this contract and summarize them in bullet points."
๐ Output
Party A delivers within 30 days.
Party B pays within 45 days.
Non-compliance โ penalties apply.
Prompt Example 2. Case Law Summary
"Summarize this court ruling in 150 words, highlighting the decision and legal precedent."
๐ Financial Prompt Engineering
Use Cases
Prompt Example 1. Financial Report Extraction
"From this quarterly report, extract: Revenue, Expenses, Profit Margin, and EPS. Present as JSON."
๐ Output
{ "Revenue": "2.4B", "Expenses": "1.6B", "Profit Margin": "33%", "EPS": "1.22" }
Prompt Example 2. Risk Analysis
"Analyze this portfolio and classify investments into High, Medium, or Low Risk with reasons."
๐ Medical Prompt Engineering
โ ๏ธ Important: Prompts in healthcare should only be used for educational or supportive tasks, never as a replacement for licensed medical advice.
Use Cases
Prompt Example 1. Patient Data Extraction
"Extract patient name, age, diagnosis, and prescribed medications from this clinical note."
๐ Output
{ "Name": "John Smith", "Age": 52, "Diagnosis": "Type 2 Diabetes", "Medications": ["Metformin 500mg", "Insulin 10 units daily"] }
Prompt Example 2. Educational Explanation
"Explain hypertension to a patient in simple terms, using a 5th-grade reading level."
