Law firm portal · For instructions when a claim occurs

Legal action in the same file

In the Law firm portal you work on the claim with the fleet, the underwriting agent (MGA) and the insurer. For a claim, the fleet’s workflow can address approvals to you, e.g. on settlement. Then you decide.

  • Instructions for individual cases: for a claim, also for a violation
  • For a claim you decide approvals that a workflow addresses to you
  • Record the dispute amount and invoice in the same portal

Starting point

What slows down the case today

Three places where things get stuck today, and what Clamio does there.

  • Requesting documents

    Expert report, police report and photos arrive one by one and often only on request.

    With ClamioYou see the documents shared with you, plus Damage Arrival with description, photos and damage sketch.

  • Coordination by mailing list

    Queries run through long email chains with changing recipients.

    With ClamioYou reach fleet, MGA and insurer directly in the file’s discussion.

  • Decisions without a record

    Who agreed and when is hard to prove later.

    With ClamioFor a claim, the fleet’s workflow can address approvals to you, e.g. on settlement. Then you decide. Your decision is in the audit log with person and time.

01Case

One case, your section

Each partner works in their own portal and only sees the cases for which they have an order.

One process, six stationsIllustration

  2. 02Review

  5. 05Settlement
  6. 06Closure
Section of the line map: the law firm gets on with the instruction at “Partner selection”. For a claim it later also decides approvals.
  • Individual cases

    You receive instructions for individual cases: for a claim, also for a violation.

  • Instruction for a violation

    The fleet creates the violation and assigns the driver; if desired, a law firm takes over. Legal steps are always decided by the fleet.

  • Accept or decline

    The order arrives as a request or direct commission, in the portal and by email. You accept with one click, after a confirmation prompt, or decline.

  • Documents

    You see the documents shared with you, such as the expert report or police report, if they have been shared.

One file, everyone sees their own section.

02Workflow

From order to an agreed course of action

The fleet defines the process. For a claim, its workflow can address approvals to you, e.g. on settlement. Then you decide. The process waits until the decision is made.

Station 03 · Approval

This is where you decide

The fleet’s workflow addresses an approval to the law firm commissioned on the claim. You decide, with person and time in the audit log.

  • A rejection always comes with a reason.
  • The result is seen by you, the fleet and, with delegated authority, the MGA.
  • If the four-eyes principle is switched on, two people confirm from an amount limit upwards.

Fleet’s workflowaddresses the approval to you

Approved: your decision is in the audit log with person and time.

You do not see the workflow history, only the approval addressed to you.

Approvals, document shares and downloads are in the audit log with person and time.

Who defines the process

The fleet. Your decision steers the rest of the process, just as the fleet has defined it.

Who decides

For a claim, the workflow can address approvals to the law firm, e.g. on settlement. Then the law firm decides.

Who sees the result

The law firm, the fleet and, with delegated authority, the MGA. The law firm does not see the workflow history.

Discretion stays with people

The process waits until the decision is made. Clamio never decides itself.

02.1Approval

The process waits for your decision

  • The process waits until the decision is made.
  • Clamio never decides itself.
  • Notifications in the portal and by email, in the recipient’s language.

One approval, four stages

03File

In the file instead of the mailing list

You reach fleet, MGA and insurer directly in the file’s discussion instead of via an email distribution list.

  • Legal documents

    They are held in the file as a document type of their own. Every upload and every download is logged.

  • Documents

    You see the documents shared with you, such as the expert report or police report, if they have been shared.

  • Discussion

    The “Discussion” tab per file, with fleet, MGA, insurer and the partners commissioned.

  • Case history

    The case history shows every step.

04Invoicing

Invoicing in the same portal

You submit your invoice in the same portal; the payer reviews and approves it. After invoicing you set the order to “Invoiced”.

  • You record the dispute amount and invoice in the same portal.
  • The payer decides; a rejection always comes with a reason.
  • You see your own order amounts. Other amounts of the claim only as far as they are shared.
