Notifications

Reminder that we will close notifications over 6 months old to maintain the performance of the system. Closed notifications can be read through view case by querying the relevant Legal AId Reference number.

Along with the A&A Criminal Re-write we implemented a change to our notifications for this system. We will now send all Notifications to the Nominated Solicitor of a case and not the person submitting a particular application.

If, as an Office Administrator, you would normally have received notifications as the person submitting the application on behalf of the Nominated Solicitor, you can still view all the notifications by selecting ‘View all other Firm Notifications’ on the notifications page. This change to notifications will be included as standard with new products released to LAOL.
