Review a housing court case as an experienced attorney

After Grok led to a missed filing, a commenter had Claude review their housing court case in a new chat as an experienced housing attorney.

What They Did
The poster said Grok led them to miss an important housing-court filing, then they switched to Claude to draft an opposition. In a fresh chat they asked Claude to review it as an experienced housing attorney, which changed the brief’s tone to admit the plaintiff’s mistakes; in another separate chat they asked for a seasoned-attorney review and Claude swung back toward blaming the defendant, leaving the poster unsure what to file.
How It Went
The concrete result was two conflicting rewritten versions of the same filing rather than a clear answer. The thread also surfaced that new Claude chats do not carry over prior chat context unless the user re-uploads material or keeps working in the same thread/project.
Worth Knowing
The main catch was context management: starting a new chat reset the case history, so separate sessions produced inconsistent advice.
