As a member of the legal department, work on legal requests for complaints submitted by employees to report non-compliance incidents and conduct legal investigations.

## Complaints submitted as legal requests {#managing-legal-investigations-request__section_i1x_cb2_jvb}

When an employee submits a legal request related to an ethics complaint, it is automatically assigned to a group or user in the legal department. The assignment is done based on the assignment rules configured in the [intake form of the associated practice area](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/njd_XlD3BdXkqNuu~5_4pA "Add an intake form to a practice area to associate it with a record producer and define assignment rules and service level agreements."). If the request is assigned to a legal group, the group lead can triage the request to themselves or to any member in the
assignment group.

## Complaints submitted as universal requests {#managing-legal-investigations-request__section_i1y_2b2_jvb}

If you've enabled submission of ethics complaints using universal requests, it is assigned to a compliance group. The universal routing agent can then create an ethics legal matter from the universal request that can be then
assigned to a matter owner to work on. For more information, see [Better together solution: Legal Investigations and HR Service Delivery Employee Relations](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/uTjeKK3KzIyTq~MMnlL~Xw "Employees can submit complaints through the Employee Center portal without worrying about who should investigate the complaint. During the triaging or investigation process, fulfillers working on these issues can transfer them back and forth between the Legal and HR departments as necessary for resolution.").

## Working on complaints {#managing-legal-investigations-request__section_qlb_hb2_jvb}

For the legal investigation to be conducted effectively, the legal fulfillers can evaluate the reported incident in detail to:

* Identify sources for information and evidence
* Add or modify involved parties
* Prepare interview questions to collect key details
* Attach supporting and relevant documentation

Use the Legal Counsel Center to conduct legal investigations into the submitted complaints.
