Module · Internal processes and governance
Legal
Legal case files, litigation, opinions and advice.
The module digitises the institution's legal work: the record of case files, claims and the other types of legal request, drafting opinions and formal advice, legal information on property, and the tracking of litigation before the courts.
A legal request: the associated case file, documents by category, a workflow with signatories and an audit trail.
What changes in legal work
Hearing dates no longer depend on the legal adviser's personal diary, and the whole case file — requests, documents, people, subject matter — sits in one place.
What you can do
The record of case files and the circuit of legal requests, from registration to the signed document.
Distinct types of request
Claim, defence, appeals, monitoring of legislation, notifications and representations.
A complete workflow
Registration, request check, drafting the response document and signing, with several signatories.
Automatic forwarding
The request reaches the next approver once the previous step is complete.
Legal case files
Independent entities, with internal number, court, court case number and date.
Attached requests
Several requests linked to the same case file, in a dedicated tab.
People and organisations
Involved in the case, with complete identification data and their role.
Subject matter
With reference to the legislation challenged and the articles concerned.
Documents generated
Legal opinions, formal advice and covering letters, generated automatically.

Native integrations
Legal work builds on the correspondence register, on notifications and on the institution's contracts.
Part of the same platform
The Legal module is not a separate application. It uses the same correspondence register, the same documents and the same signing, notification and audit mechanisms as every other module.
How you can start
You do not have to digitise the whole institution at once.
START ONE
Start directly with this module: Legal, the internal portal and the tools it needs to run.
START PRO + LEGAL
If you already have the digital foundation — correspondence register, documents, workflows — the module is switched on top of it, with no migration.
