Maintain matter hygiene by easily removing unnecessary matters. The "Delete Matters" function empowers you to declutter and refine your environment, keeping it organized and focused on what truly matters.


What does this feature do?


It lets you delete a demo or live matter

⚠️ Matter deletion is permanent and irreversible

When you delete a matter:

  • all data about the matter (except for the data in your "Matters report" and the "Deleted matters" table) is deleted

  • you lose the activity logs for that matter, which are used to power the "Activity report".

  • the audit trail in the Administration System will record that you deleted it

So be careful before deleting a matter!


How do I use it?


Step 1: Click "Matters" in the sidebar


Step 2: Find the matter, click on the three dots, and select "Delete matter"


Step 3: Confirm deletion

You need to type "DELETE MATTER" before you can delete the matter

Once you do this, and press "Delete matter":

  • All of the matter in the matter will be deleted (except as set out above)

  • The matter will move to the "Deleted matters" table in the matters section

  • The audit trail in the Administration System will record that you deleted the matter
