Instructions on managing your appointments in your My Appointments area of LawTap. How to view, cancel, reschedule, review and more

Updated over a year ago

My Appointments is your dedicated area in LawTap to manage all your appointments with lawyers.

There are individual actions for each appointment that allow you to view, cancel, reschedule, review appointments and more.

In this article we provide instructions on how to manage your appointments and demonstrate how to use each action.

Accessing My Appointments

Your My Appointments area opens when you sign in to LawTap. You can access it at any time by selecting My Appointments in the top bar.

LawTap My Appointments Link

My Appointments displays a summary of your appointments with lawyers on LawTap in a table. The ID, status, date and time, appointment type and lawyer's name are included for each appointment, as well as actions that allow you to perform available tasks.

The actions available for each appointment vary, depending on the appointment type and date (and time) of the appointment. Future appointments all have a Cancel action, and many, but not all, past appointments have a Review action. The features for each appointment type are set by individual lawyers and firms.

Each appointment confirmation email, as well as all email and SMS notifications, contain links to execute the same actions that are available in My Appointments.

The email link opens an email (addressed to the lawyer) in the email application configured on your device. Direct emailing only works on a PC with applications like Outlook, not browser-based email accounts, like Gmail and Yahoo.
