With the Salesforce integration, you can make your legal team and the wider business more efficient and keep everyone in sync.
Salesforce users don't have to use another tool to raise matter requests. They can create new matters directly from Salesforce. As a result, engaging with legal is a lot easier.
By streamlining intake and enabling Salesforce users to raise structured legal matter requests straight from Salesforce, you will improve your legal team's efficiency, visibility, and engagement with the wider business without disrupting their work.
