Manual note
Four layers: direct match, identical directors, group affiliation, transitive shareholdings.
AI extracts from the mandate inquiry all parties: client, opponent, directors, ultimate beneficial owners (UBO), intervenors.
You see the participant graph — add or exclude persons.
Layer 1: AI does direct name matching across all matters — fuzzy for spelling variants ('Muster GmbH' = 'Muster G.m.b.H.'), commercial register, VAT ID.
→ M-2023-0091 — Muster GmbH = Muster G.m.b.H. (HRB 67342)
Hits are color-coded: red (same party), yellow (related person), green (no conflict).
Layer 2: AI checks director identity — if 'Max Mustermann' is director at client A and opponent B, that's a conflict.
Data comes from commercial register extracts or your KYC process — AI connects the dots.
Layer 3: AI traces group affiliation — parent/subsidiary/sub-subsidiary, including holdings and trust structures.
You see the group tree with conflict nodes marked — decide on acceptance with reasoning.
Layer 4: Transitive shareholdings — 'client A owns 30% of X, opponent B owns 25% of X' — AI flags for review.
You weigh: no direct conflict, but reject mandate or disclose to client? Decision is saved with reasoning.
AI documents the decision: who checked (lawyer ID), when (timestamp), which conflicts (hit list), how decided (acceptance/rejection with reasoning), what client disclosure occurred.
For bar-association queries the documentation is printed in 30 seconds — BRAO-compliant.
Berufsträger-Kontrolle. The conflict engine doesn't replace legal judgment — it provides the data basis. Every mandate acceptance remains a conscious lawyer decision; the system only documents.
Recognizes 'Muster GmbH' = 'Muster G.m.b.H.', 'GmbH' = 'limited liability company', tolerates typos and language variants.
Direct query against the German commercial register (HRB/HRA) — directors, proxies, shareholders, partners are auto-imported.
Group trees as interactive graph. Conflict nodes marked; depth configurable (typically 3 levels).
Ultimate beneficial owners from trust and holding structures are detected — relevant for AML compliance (GwG).
Whitelist / blacklist
Specific clients or opponents can be explicitly blocked or released for mandates — beyond matter lifetime.
Audit log with reasoning
Every conflict check, decision and client disclosure is documented. Export as PDF for bar association or insurance.
Legacy conflict checks search 'Muster GmbH' and miss 'Muster Beteiligungs AG' (same director) or 'Muster Holding' (group parent). That's exactly where professional-liability cases arise.
When the bar association asks 'When was the conflict checked, who decided?' — the answer sits in an email in the archive. At best.
→ M-2023-0091 — Muster GmbH = Muster G.m.b.H. (HRB 67342)
With 50,000+ active matters and 200 lawyers, conflict checking isn't 'someone looks it up' — it's a systematic bottleneck.
