Each edition brings you the latest updates, practical tips, and expert insights to ensure your success every step of the way.

Following last month’s update, we’re pleased to share another progress update on the upcoming new look for Access Legal Compliance.

In the near future, users should keep an eye out for a new Try the New Look button, which will let you move between the current system design and the redesigned experience whenever you choose; this gives everyone the chance to explore the new layout at their own pace.

This first phase of the redesign will initially impact Audits, Complaints, Breach Reporting, PII Claims, and the Homepages. These areas will be the earliest to benefit from the updated visual design and improved navigation.

As part of this work, we’ve also introduced several new usability features aimed at making everyday tasks easier to complete and improving visibility of record information across these modules. These enhancements are designed to help your teams work more efficiently and confidently as they manage compliance activity.

We’ll continue sharing updates as we move toward release, but for now, keep an eye out for the new toggle button and, as always, your Account Manager is on hand if you have any questions.
