This article explains how to assign an assignee and secondary assignee to a matter in LegalOn.


Ways to assign assignees

You can assign owners from either of the following screens:

  • [Matters] list page

  • Matter detail page → [Matter information] section

Matters without a primary assignee appear under the [Unassigned] tab in the matters list.

Assign assignees from the Matters list

  1. Open the [Matters] list.

  2. Click the [Unassigned] tab.

  3. Click the [Assignee] or [Secondary assignee] field of the target matter.

  4. Select users from the dropdown list.

You can assign 1 assignee and up to 5 assignees per matter.


Assign assignees from the Matter detail page

  1. Open the [Matters] list and click the relevant matter.

  2. In the [Matter information] section, click the [Assignee] or [Secondary assignee] field.

  3. Select users from the dropdown list.

Same as above: 1 assignee and up to 5 assignees may be selected.

Once assignment is complete, notification emails will be sent to the assigned users based on their personal notification settings.

Assigned users will receive an email when a matter is created or when they are assigned to it.
