hopefully this can be helpful but I struggled with this for hours and finally my stupid def realized that it might be my computer. so if your using a CC computer that is what is causing you not to find the daily task on the computer. as soon as i got a regular computer it worked perfectly!

Hey I actually figured it out ! Took me forever ! So guest lectures start at 5. You have to travel to a university around that time. Open your phone, click work, click visit law class and than it will work. Idk if it works any other time but I see it only works at lecture times. Hope this helps !!

The guest lecture tooltip needs to be changed to indicate it can only be done between the hours of 5 pm - 7pm and the option needs to be removed from the phone until that time.  Otherwise, it is just confusing for players.  I sent my Sim several times to complete the task.   I just finished the task today at the specified time.

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Dansk
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.61.15.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Discover University - Island Living - Get Famous - Seasons - City Living - Get Together - Get to Work - Parenthood - Spa Day.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? After you graduate university (law), you get hired as a lawyer - when you work from home, you get the task where you have to be a guest lecturer in law, at a university.
What happens when the bug occurs? The button to complete the task is not showing - have tried through the phone and travelling to the university, then pressing the classroom - the button is not there.
What do you expect to see? I expect to se a button with the task, to complete it.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I have tried returning to the university between 5 pm and 7 pm - the only choice close to it, is the "attend guest lecture" or what its called - this doesn't work either.

I have the same issue as @SparklyB (post #12).  First day on the 'gavel smasher' job (day after my sim graduated), chose 'work from home', received 2 assignments:  visit Uni Law Class, & guest lecture.  Had option to do ONLY the first via phone; did so; my sim reappeared at her door after she completed the task, & she got the work-credit.  Still did not get the option to do the guest lecture.  Traveled to Uni (Britechester, the commons), clicked on the classroom; no option to give lecture.  Since the job hours for 'gavel smasher' are 8am-4pm & guest lectures in the classroom are 5-7pm, I guessed I had to wait until 5pm, so my sim hung out at the commons until 5pm & I tried again.  Nope; no option to give lecture.  Tried again around 6 pm; no option.  Went home to see if it'd work from there; nope.  The little icon for work/school (briefcase) has a yellow highlight around it, as it does when you're late for work, even though the work hours are well over.  Can't complete the task.  Need a cheat to mark it complete.  (There's one for aspiration-tasks....)  Might be easier than de-bugging whatever is bugged.

 

(eta:  same issue also as poster immediately above.)

So was anyone able to figure out how to file court documents? I’m having this issue and don’t know what to do? Is it a bug?  I’m not using a cc computer. I was able to do it before but now I can’t.

@Simmerlover23ng Is the option not there, greyed out or does it not do anything ? What level is your Sim at ?

@Simmerlover23ng Did you use cheats to promote the Sim ? Do you still have it as a task ? At level 6 you might not need to do them anymore. Mine is level 8 and I don't have the option anymore.

Bit unsure if it should still show up

@crinrict No I don’t use cheats. Also, when I do work from home it asks me to do them, but the option isn’t there. It also helps when I have to offer legal representation. It completes it faster, but idk why it isn’t there. Maybe, it’s a bug like everyone says. It just disappeared. I don’t know why they would ask me to still complete it if I can no longer do them. Idk, I’m confused lol 🤷🏽‍♀️
