How does client communication work in Unomia?

WhatsApp, email, phone and the client portal in one place, linked to the right case in every step.

← How Unomia works

In short

In Unomia, communication is not a separate module. WhatsApp, Outlook, Gmail, phone calls and the client portal are connected to all six steps, so every message is stored with the lead, case, task or invoice it belongs to. Casey answers outside office hours and drafts replies for the lawyer to review.

Every channel, one conversation per case

WhatsApp

Through the official WhatsApp Business API. Messages land directly in the case file, not on someone’s phone.

Email

Outlook and Gmail sync with your cases. You keep your own mailbox, and every email is linked to the right case.

Phone

Click-to-call from the lead or the case, and every call is logged with the case it belongs to.

Client portal

Clients follow their case, read messages and share files in a secure portal.

Internal notes

Colleagues discuss a case with notes and @mentions, next to the client conversation and never visible to the client.

Casey

Casey answers outside office hours, summarises long conversations and drafts emails and letters for the lawyer to review.

Communication in every step

The same channels, stored with the step and the case they belong to.

1

Intake

Every WhatsApp message, email and call lands on the lead, so the whole first contact is in one place. Outside office hours Casey answers and asks the qualifying questions.

Tasks & Deadlines

Notes, @mentions and messages are kept on each task, so the team discusses the work where the work is.

Time & Expenses

Calls and emails are logged on the case, so the time they took is easy to record.

5

Invoicing

The invoice goes to the client by email or through the client portal, and the message stays in the case.

Accounting

Payment reminders go to the client automatically, and every reminder is logged.

Frequently asked questions

Are WhatsApp messages with clients stored securely?

Yes. Messages go through the official WhatsApp Business API and are stored in the case file in your firm’s own environment, hosted in the EU.

Do I need to switch from Outlook or Gmail?

No. Unomia syncs with Outlook and Gmail, so you keep working in your own mailbox while every email is linked to the right case.

Can clients see internal notes?

No. Internal notes are only visible to your team. Clients only see what you send them or share through the portal.

Does Casey send messages on its own?

Casey answers first questions outside office hours. Messages with legal or financial impact are drafts that the lawyer reviews and sends.
