Questions
Struggling to pick the perfect software? We've got answers to your top FAQs right here.
Contact Us →1. What is the POPI Act in South Africa? ›
The POPI Act (Protection of Personal Information Act) is a data privacy law that regulates how legal firms process client information, similar to GDPR but with local compliance requirements. Conflict check software like CaseFox automatically scans client intake forms against your database to prevent representing conflicting parties, ensuring POPI-compliant onboarding for Johannesburg, Durban, and Cape Town practices.
2. What is a POPI Checklist for South African Law Firms? ›
A POPI checklist ensures legal practices comply with South Africa's Protection of Personal Information Act by securing client data processing. Key steps include:
Client Consent: Obtain explicit permission before collecting personal details during intake.
Data Minimization: Only gather essential information (name, ID, contact, case details).
Secure Storage: Use encrypted cloud platforms for case files and client records.
Access Controls: Limit staff access to need-to-know case information only.
Data Retention: Delete records after statutory periods or case closure.
Breach Reporting: Notify the Information Regulator within the required timelines.
CaseFox supports POPI compliance during intake, scanning client details against your database instantly while logging consent for all your practices.
3. What is a Trust Account in ZA? ›
A trust account holds client money separately from your firm's operating funds, which is a requirement under Legal Practice Act Section 86(4). Attorneys deposit retainers, settlements, and payments here, without mixing the cash with the firm.
4. How Does Cloud Storage Work for Law Firms? ›
Cloud storage saves case files on remote servers accessed via the internet. Your practice uploads documents that get encrypted and split across multiple secure data centers worldwide for POPI compliance. Access pleadings or client files from any device through CaseFox, with automatic backups, version control, and role-based permissions, ensuring no data is lost.
5. What is Intake in Case Management? ›
Intake in case management is the initial process where law firms collect client information, run conflict checks, and evaluate case viability before formal onboarding. Legal Client Intake Software automates secure digital forms, instant conflict screening, and data organization, reducing a firm's admin time by 70% while ensuring POPI compliance from first contact.
6. What is a Client Intake Process? ›
The client intake process captures new client details, runs conflict checks, and qualifies cases before formal representation — an essential first step in legal workflows. Legal Client Intake Software automates secure forms and POPI-compliant screening for firms, cutting onboarding time by 70%.
7. What is Case Intake? ›
Case intake evaluates potential matters by collecting client facts, verifying no conflicts exist, and determining case viability before file opening. CaseFox handles digital forms, instant conflict scans, and matter triage automatically.
8. What is the Purpose of Client Intake? ›
Client intake's purpose is to gather information, mitigate risks through conflict screening, set engagement expectations, and convert leads to paying clients efficiently. It streamlines South African practices with automated Conflict Check Software for POPI compliance from first contact.
