Create a legal request from a universal request to get the Legal department's
assistance in resolving the request.

## Antes de Iniciar

Ensure you have the Universal Request application installed and [related configuration for legal
services](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/hpWDkXoKwaT3TKvYkQ9AXw "Review the base system configurations for integration of legal requests with universal requests and configure as per your business needs.") completed by the administrator.

An employee has [submitted a universal request](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ZQVzp58gcAUT2pScM0m3mw "Create a universal request record on behalf of the requester from the Universal Request application.") and the universal ticket is assigned to
you.  
Importante:  
The routing agent with the required roles must also be a member of the Legal Routing Group assignment group.

Role required: sn_lg_ops.legal_user and sn_uni_req.universal_request_write

## Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

A routing agent can also create a legal request from a universal request through the
Agent mobile app. For creating legal ticket for a complaint, see [Create an ethics legal matter from a universal request](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/43QEqvpLxhmHUYpbc33ifQ "Create an ethics legal matter from a universal request to get the Legal department's assistance in resolving the complaints.").

## O que Fazer Depois

In the Legal department, the legal request is assigned a legal fulfiller. The assigned legal fulfiller [works on the legal request](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/uUduivVi2wth7MVUvf0Nhg "Work on legal requests assigned to you or as a collaborator to resolve issues or answer queries.") and provides the resolution, or transfers the legal request to another department or back to the Universal Request.
To transfer the general legal request back to the Universal Request with external storage enabled, activate the Name UR Transfer Post Processor script action to sync the attachments. The script action is available in AllEventScript Actions.
