DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT
Modern SharePoint Integration
Lawcadia's new SharePoint integration connects legal matter management with Microsoft SharePoint, helping legal teams manage intake, documents, emails, permissions and external access from within the Lawcadia workspace.

Built using the latest Microsoft APIs and capabilities, the integration goes beyond legacy two-way document syncing. Lawyers can access SharePoint directly from Lawcadia, open Microsoft Office files in desktop or online applications, and manage versions in both SharePoint and Lawcadia.

This helps legal teams reduce duplication, align access controls, avoid version conflicts and keep documents connected to the relevant matter.

DATA SECURITY & GOVERNANCE
Maintain Microsoft Information Protection Controls Across Legal Workflows
Many organisations use Microsoft Purview Information Protection and sensitivity labels to classify, protect and manage access to sensitive information across Microsoft 365.

Lawcadia’s SharePoint integration respects and preserves existing Microsoft sensitivity labels, allowing legal teams to manage matters, documents and workflows in Lawcadia while maintaining the organisation’s existing information governance controls.

Documents remain managed within the client’s Microsoft 365 environment, helping legal teams collaborate efficiently while supporting security and compliance requirements.
