Litigation module

With corporate governance, such as Sarbanes-Oxley, and the current litigious environment dictating transparency, accuracy of legal matters and litigation spend, corporate legal departments are challenged with increasing responsibilities and reporting requirements.

At the same time, corporate officers and shareholders expect quality decisions and exceptional performance to protect revenue and reputation. Law departments must find innovative methods to automate work processes, reuse knowledge and reduce administrative overhead. Aon RiskConsole addresses the complex needs of legal departments through the use of the litigation module.

The litigation module guides an organisation’s internal legal staff in managing financial data, matters and documents in one secured system. The module tracks legal actions brought against a company including docket details, allegations, attorney, diary information and litigation-specific financials allowing you to strategically manage your legal matters with greater insight into performance, expenses and risk. Litigation information can be linked with incident, claim, safety, policy and exposure information to provide a single comprehensive environment for data management, risk analysis and risk reporting.
