Legal Request Triage
Capture incoming legal requests from business teams, classify them by type and urgency, and route them to the right owner without manual sorting.
What this solves
Legal teams searching for a practical way to manage legal request triage without spreadsheets or disconnected tools.
CaseDocker's legal request triage capabilities give in-house legal teams a single intake point for requests from business units, so nothing arrives only as an email or chat message. Requests are classified, prioritized, and routed to the right reviewer with the context needed to act.
Key Features
Structured intake forms
Capture request type, business unit, urgency, and supporting documents through a consistent intake form instead of free-form email.
Classification and routing
Route requests to the right reviewer based on request type, business unit, and current workload.
Priority and SLA visibility
Flag high-priority or time-sensitive requests so they are not buried behind routine ones.

|---|---|
| LCM (Legal Case Management) | Convert triaged requests into trackable matters with owners, status, and history. |

Implementation prerequisites
- Map the current process
Document the intake points, owners, handoffs, deadlines, documents, and reporting needs for the workflow.
- Configure the workspace
Set up fields, templates, playbooks, permissions, alerts, and module connections around the target use case.
- Launch with reporting
Move live matters into CaseDocker, monitor adoption, and use dashboards to tune SLAs, risk flags, and escalations.
Limitations
- Migration timing depends on source data quality, document structure, and the availability of workflow owners for validation.
- External data exchange depends on API access, export formats, permissions, and customer-side system constraints.
- AI-assisted review and drafting require human legal, compliance, or business approval before final action.
