It is the procedure of conflict checking.
Answer:
Conflict Checking
Explanation:
Conflict checking which is often done by the use of software and a database is a term used to describe a system which is designed to reduce conflicts of interests, most especially in a law firm.
The database and the software are there to ensure a client's interests are settled by representation of a competing matter.
Conflict check ensures that the commitments of a law firm to a client's cause will not be affected by the commitment the firm has towards some other client.
