Goal & what you need
Goal
Prevent phishing, wrong-matter filing, lost originals, false status assumptions, confidentiality exposure, and autonomous legal decisions while creating an auditable email-to-matter workflow.
What you need
- Approved monitored mailbox, account, integration, protected viewer, matter repository, and human-review queue
- Current Portal materials, firm records procedure, matter directory, naming convention, sender rules, retention requirements, and escalation matrix
- Written lawyer or administrator approval defining eligible messages, permissions, AI environment, reviewers, prohibited actions, and closure proof
Check your firm’s process. This lesson teaches a safe general workflow. Your firm’s software, folder names, naming rules, retention steps, and escalation contacts may differ. If you are unsure, stop and ask your supervisor.
