Goal & what you need
Goal
Prevent missed email, phishing, wrong-matter routing, fabricated deadlines, hidden unresolved work, confidentiality exposure, and unauthorized communications while producing an auditable daily action queue.
What you need
- Approved mailbox, account, AI environment, integrations, permission scope, protected viewer, matter systems, and queue destination
- Current firm email, records, cybersecurity, calendaring, confidentiality, communication, task-assignment, retention, and incident procedures
- Written lawyer or administrator approval defining mailbox coverage, exclusions, review frequency, priority rubric, reviewers, prohibited actions, and manual fallback
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.
