The Logic of Legal Agreements – Building a Legal Reasoner
Digital Transformation of Contracts – Ontologies, Structured Data, and AI
This 70 page book is the second of three new books in a series of books about AI and the Law, that describe the tools of math and logic that are available to us as we continue down the path of Digital Transformation of Contracts, to a new world where data is king. We have the technology to convert contracts to structured data; now it is a matter of implementing the technology to achieve standardization in accordance with best practices.
(i) Ontology of Legal Contracts – Focus on Finance: An ontology describes and classifies the legal concepts used in contracts, and the relationships among those concepts.
(ii) The Logic of Legal Agreements – Building a Legal Reasoner: We are beginning to develop software applications that apply math and logic to mimic the way that lawyers think and reason.
(iii) The Mathematics of Language: A new understanding of language in mathematical terms has developed in recent years. Natural language processing soon will be transformed to enable the processing of contracts and statutes as math and logic equations.
Why now? The current focus is on converting ordinary contracts to structured data, but this will change. Just like when the movie industry converted from film to digital, there is an interim period where we need to convert existing material to a digital format. Once the conversion is complete, however, the focus shifts to origination in a digital format. We are already beginning to shift to originating contracts in a digital, structured data format. These books provide a blueprint for the origination of contracts and statutes as structured data, which is the long-term solution to contract and portfolio management.
Target audience: Anyone implementing the Digital Transformation of Contracts and/or Statutes, including: (i) inhouse lawyers at corporations, finance companies, banks, and government agencies, who use standardized documents in their business, and (ii) LegalTech experts who want to learn more about how lawyers think about the law.
Target industries: Any industry that uses standard form contracts, including financial services (e.g., banking and FinTech), equipment leasing, vendor finance (software and equipment), technology, healthcare, life sciences, energy transition, insurance, retail, etc. Also, we can use the same technology to convert statutes to structured data.
Caution: This is not light reading, but if you are interested in applying math and logic to drafting contracts as structured data, then these books are for you. The three new books are written at a higher level and contain less math. The other books provide a detailed foundation in math and logic for those who want (or need) to know more.
This book about Logic is written by a practicing attorney, for use by practicing attorneys. It should also be of interest to anyone involved in creating artificial intelligence software applications for use in the practice of law.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
