In short

How do I keep a referring attorney updated on a case without extra admin work?

WebRun watches Family Law Software for milestones on referred cases, such as an affidavit filed or a settlement reached, checks the referring attorney's contact in Clio, and drafts a short status update in Gmail with case financial specifics left out by default. The draft stays unsent for your team to review, keeping every referral relationship under your control.

  • Referring attorneys hear about milestones within minutes, not weeks
  • Financial specifics stay out of referral notes unless your team adds them
  • Every update is reviewed before it reaches a referring attorney

Questions, answered

Will it email the referring attorney without approval?

No. WebRun only drafts the update note in Gmail and leaves it unsent. Someone on your team reviews and sends it, so every referral relationship stays under your control.

Does the update include financial details about the case?

No, not by default. WebRun keeps case financial specifics out of the note and only adds them if your team edits the draft to include them before sending.

How does it find the referring attorney's contact?

It reads the referral record in Clio for each case, confirming the referral is still active before drafting an update.
