Key Features

Risk Assessment File Review

There is a series of risk assessment file review steps included in this module, with a recurring monthly review reminder and file opening form. Production of initial letter and questionnaire to the client and the client care pack are included.

Reminders

Reminder tasks are built-in regarding limitation dates counting down from 1 year, 6 months, 3 months etc. and are displayed in the ‘litigation manager’ view to ensure they are not missed. The reminder tool also handles client instruction reminders.

Policy Documents & Templates

Policy documents and letters to/from the lender are handled by the financial mis-selling module. E.g. Letters to the lender with a subject access or S77/78 disclosure request are included with an automatic task for the fee earner 40 days later to trigger the allocation questionnaire for the court. Plus all the relevant template letters for client and lender are available to make life very easy for fee earners.

Premiums, Claim & Refund

Users can log and update PPI premium information, record claim details and responses from the lender. Workflow steps are provided to capture information about whether or not the claim has been acknowledged and / or details of any offer amount, with all relevant letters and documentation generated automatically along the way.

When it is necessary to refer a claim to the Financial Obmudsman the software provides a clear workflow procedure with relevant letters and complaints forms to progress this stage of the case quickly and efficiently.

With LAWFUSION it is quick, easy and efficient to produce an electronic PDF Court Bundle.

Auto Form Completion

The module offers Laserforms N244 and N1 for auto completion.

Other Laserforms can be added if requried.

Finance & Settlement Cheques

Solicitor-to-Client Correspondence

LAWFUSION caters for all types of solicitor-to-client communication. Most firms prefer to communicate with their clients via a mix of phone, email, text and letter depending on the subject matter, where they are and the time of day.

The financial mis-selling module offers robust functionality to ensure all communications are saved to the relevant case and can be retrieved quickly and easily by fee earners. There is powerful integration to Outlook and other Microsoft products. SMS text messaging functionality comes as standard with LAWFUSION allowing users to send ad hoc texts from their LAWFUSION desktop or bulk texts to a group of people. Users can also set up text messaging as part of a workflow chart.
