Lawyer seeks local AI for case files, faces model refusals

A user on Reddit's r/LocalLLaMA subreddit is seeking advice on setting up a local, private AI system similar to NotebookLM for analyzing legal case files. They are experiencing slow performance and an unexpected refusal behavior from models like Qwen3.5 9B and gpt-oss-20b when using LM Studio with Big RAG. The models frequently cite copyright concerns instead of analyzing the user's own documents, leading to generic responses rather than accurate summaries with citations. AI
