Client Portals for Real-Time Collaboration:
An Essential Tool for a Dispersed Legal Department
Strong relationships between in-house Legal Departments and their business clients have traditionally been rooted in communication and collaboration.
In a hybrid or remote environment, this becomes challenging: It’s no longer easy to stop by a client’s office or brainstorm in a conference room. This is where an internal client portal can help.

An internal client portal can provide the visibility, transparency and control that drive effective working relationships.

What is an internal client portal?
An internal client portal is a safe and secure online platform that connects your Legal Department with their internal business clients.
Through this client portal, your business clients can submit their legal requests, then track the matter, receive updates and collaborate on resolutions.
