It has a simple & intuitive Legal Request Management system built-in

Smart Legal Counsel has a wide variety of Legal Request types baked directly into the app. You can enter a myriad of legal request types like:

• Civil Cases
• Contract Reviews
• Dispute resolutions
• General cases

• NDA’s

and many more types of legal requests.

Each of these request types has a comprehensive approvals system, built into each type. Every legal request has to go through multiple levels of approvals increasing in seniority, till final approval by the senior management. Only after the final approval is complete, is the legal request considered valid. Once a legal request has all required approvals in place, it becomes a ticket with SLAs for the legal department staff to start working on it.

Let’s now see some other features of Smart Legal Counsel…

Contract Management

Smart Legal Counsel has an integrated contract management system built in that keeps a complete, end-to-end tracking and management of Contracts. The “Contract Review” module has an informative and comprehensive dashboard that immediately gives a complete status wise details of all contract reviews entered in the system, at a glance. The user can view, edit, and delete any contract directly from the dashboard, thus making it extremely convenient for

managing contract information. In addition, you can also export an individual contract as an Excel file, PDF, CSV or even take a print directly from the dashboard. Thus, the dashboard is live and dynamic, allowing users to work on individual contracts directly from within it.

Matter Management

Any legal matter can be entered, managed, and tracked completely in Smart Legal Counsel. Matters can be entered completely as fresh entries, or from pre-defined templates already defined in the “Matter Template” section. Once the user selects a template, (s)he just needs to substitute existing details with the new matter details and save the matter. That’s all. The new legal matter is ready!

Again, as explained above, each matter detail can be exported into multiple file formats and also be printed out if physical prints are required.
