What is a legal requests module?

A legal requests module is a tool designed to centralise, organise and manage all requests received by the legal department. From the creation of contracts to regulatory queries, this type of module allows legal teams to optimise their workflows and provide quick and efficient responses to other areas of the organisation.

What does this speed of response mean? By eliminating the legal department's reliance on disorganised emails, calls and spreadsheets, the legal requests module acts as a single hub that automates the recording, tracking and resolution of every request. This not only improves visibility and traceability but also allows for prioritisation of tasks and ensures that no request goes unattended.

Benefits of the legal requests module for the legal department

The legal requests module is a strategic ally for legal teams looking to manage their workload better. Let's take a look at some of the key benefits it can bring you:

  • Automation of repetitive tasks: reduces time spent managing requests manually, allowing the team to focus on tasks of higher strategic value.
  • Prioritisation and organisation: by categorising and prioritising requests, teams can efficiently manage tight deadlines and critical urgencies.
  • Improved traceability: each request is recorded with a detailed history, making it easier to track its status and ensuring that none are lost in the process.
  • Increased visibility: legal managers can obtain reports on the volume, type and resolution time of requests, allowing them to identify areas for improvement and optimise resources.

Benefits of the legal request module for other departments in the company

But the advantages of the legal requests module do not end here, as the agility it provides not only benefits the legal team but also the rest of the organisation's departments, such as sales, purchasing, human resources or marketing, among others, with these benefits to highlight:

  • More efficient communication: external departments improve the perception of the legal team, as they can send their requests in a clear and structured way, avoiding confusion and duplication.
  • Reduced waiting times: with centralised processes, requests are handled faster, allowing teams to move forward without delay.
  • Greater process clarity: each team knows exactly what information they need to provide and what to expect from the legal team, improving collaboration and trust.
