Our team has developed a digital version of our highly commended Handy Client Guide to Privilege, now making the analysis quicker, easier and more convenient.

Accessible both on your mobile and from your desktop, the app guides users through a short series of questions, using the answers to analyse whether a document is likely to be covered by legal advice privilege and/or litigation privilege under English law. Notes providing guidance and interpretation of relevant case law are accessible directly from the question screens, assisting the user in answering the questions without losing their place in the analysis. When all the relevant questions have been completed, an on-screen report provides a handy summary of the answers given and the likely privilege status of the document.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss with one of the team, please get in touch - [email protected].

See our video below for more information on the app.

Handy Client Guide to Privilege

The Legal Privilege App is a quick reference tool which helps users identify when legal privilege applies, how to maintain it, and what steps to take to avoid accidental waiver.

The app is a self-serve decision tree interface, and by answering a series of guided questions, users are enabled to determine which documents can legitimately be withheld on grounds of privilege.

The tool and corresponding client guide has practical tips and guidance for maintaining privilege. This is aimed at supporting clients to feel confident and minimising risks in document creation and handling.

The Legal Privilege App is designed for general counsel and in-house legal teams, compliance officers, and external legal advisors who need to navigate legal privilege issues confidently.

It is also a valuable tool for business leaders and professionals who handle sensitive communications and require guidance on maintaining privilege in their day-to-day operations.

The Legal Privilege App is available for free and no downloads or installations are required - just open the app in your browser and begin using it immediately.

You can access the app here – click to get started.

This is a great example of digital transformation of our business in practice. We've built this app entirely in-house on a no-code platform in a matter of weeks through Practice Group, Innovation and Legal Ops collaboration. I can't think of a busy in-house lawyer that won't find this useful.

Privilege is an area that sounds straightforward but in fact is quite the opposite. We developed our Handy Client Guide to Privilege, and now this app, as a quick and easy reference to help clients navigate the complexities in determining which documents are likely to be privileged - or not.
