The purpose of this research is to demonstrate the usefulness of using neutrosophic logic in determining ambiguities in legal texts. To do this, the aim is to carry out an analysis of a legal text through the use of neutrosophic operators to determine the existence of indeterminacies or ambiguities that may be the subject of deficiencies in the legal field. The use of neutrosophic correlation operators made it possible to identify a set of highly relevant elements that, according to the assessment of experts, must be subjected to mandatory evaluation in the process of analysis and interpretation of legal documents. The incorporation of neutrosophic numbers was particularly significant when examining in detail the language contained in legal clauses and provisions in order to detect vague, ambiguous, or general terms. This study has provided solid evidence of the effectiveness and versatility of the method when applied in the legal field.
