How it works
Your team does the legal work. Fiona helps you check it.
Opens
A new matter opens.
Fiona sets out what the work needs and what has not arrived yet.
Watches
She keeps track.
As documents and replies come in, she logs them and notes the key dates, so you can see what is due.
Drafts
She prepares the next step.
When the next stage is due, she drafts what it calls for, ready for you to check.
Signs off
You approve it.
Nothing goes out until you have read it and said yes.
What she catches, and what she drafts
Catch
- Missing steps. She flags what a matter lacks, with the rule behind it, before it falls due.
Draft
- Call notes. She drafts the attendance note and time entry for you to check; the supervising solicitor sees what needs a second look.
- Letters. Drafted from the matter’s own details, ready for you to edit.
- Follow-ups. Chasers for a missing document, waiting for your yes.
What she never does
- Change a warning the rules have raised.
- Give legal advice. The lawyer stays responsible for the work.
- Carry your firm’s memory into a lawyer’s next job.
