Abstract: A privacy-preserving multilingual legal assistance system (100) and corresponding method are disclosed, comprising a client interaction layer (102), an API/interface layer (104), a document and speech pre-processing module (106) with OCR and speech-to-text engines, a retrieval-augmented generation engine (108), a legal knowledge base and vector embedding module (110) indexing Indian statutes, a locally-hosted large language model inference engine (112), a citation linking and trustworthiness module (116), a multilingual translation and speech synthesis module (114), a comprehension assessment module (118), an output dashboard (120), and a local hardware layer (130) executing all modules on-premises. The system extracts a user's legal query from documents, text or speech, retrieves relevant statutory provisions, generates a citation-grounded explanation using a locally-hosted language model, translates and vocalises the explanation in the user's selected Indian language, and automatically assesses comprehension, thereby providing accurate, trustworthy, accessible legal assistance without transmitting confidential data to any third-party server.
