Abstract:
A computer system for checks for conflicts associated with proposed new matters in an organization which deals with numerous clients. The system compares data concerning potential relationships of a party to the organization with data denoting existing relationships and identifies potential problem situations where the client in a potential matter is the same as the client in an existing matter. For at least some of these matches, the system uses stored data defining associations between existing parties and persons within the organization to select one or more persons within the organization associated with the existing party, and sends a signal denoting the potential problem to one or more of the persons. The potential problem signal is selectively routed to only those persons concerned. These persons can signal the system that the problem does not exist, or that the problem has been resolved.
