2. UX Problem

⁠
The primary UX challenge in this project stemmed from the intricate legal context and the imperative to deliver a user-friendly experience within this complex framework. Understanding legal terminology, diverse claim statuses, and critical actions required by plaintiffs, defendants, and judges presented a formidable hurdle. Furthermore, the transition to remote arbitration introduced additional complexity, necessitating the provision of essential tools for online proceedings, maintaining legal compliance, security, and user confidentiality, and accommodating the diverse preferences of user groups, such as judges favoring desktop and large tablet usage. Striking the right balance between user-friendliness and legal rigor in the context of remote arbitration emerged as a paramount challenge throughout the UX process.

3. UX process

To address these specific usability concerns, we need to initiate a structured approach to UX strategy:
Grasping the Legal Landscape: The legal context presents a nuanced terrain with claims traversing through distinct statuses and intricate interactions throughout their life cycle. Additionally, it demands a keen understanding of the pivotal actions essential for Plaintiffs, Defendants, and Judges. ​

Mapping flaws and opportunities on current design: It's bureaucratic, but how can the user feel different? ​

Setting UX form guidelines from benchmarks: Using the latest UX heuristics validated out there so we don't reinvent the wheel.

Figuring out the most important features: With our customer panel we found out that Judges really used more desktop and large tablets for their work, so we build advanced features for them to work on those devices, such as Highlights and Notes.

Using a material template for wireframing:
Helps wireframing with a complete design system;
Saves client's time and money smoothing the UI process;
Delivers UI designers advanced prototypes decisions, saving time.

Validating main UX flows using Maze, for making sure the task completion rate is sufficiently met.
Defined key user tasks and flows for validation, such as signing up, making a purchase, and finding content, creating a roadmap for testing critical user experiences.
Created interactive prototypes in Figma to represent these flows, serving as the basis for user feedback.
Set up usability tests in Maze, assigning tasks to participants and defining success criteria for each flow to objectively measure user experience.
Launched the tests and recruited participants to interact with the prototypes, gathering valuable insights that internal testing could not provide. ​ ​
