# clsLegalFileLocation



`clsLegalFileLocation` carries legal file-location record data used by LegalNet's workers' compensation legal-case workflows, exposing the identifiers, codes, dates, names, flags, and helper operations needed to represent one legal file-location record in application code.*



## Purpose



Use this type when code needs one legal file-location record rather than a collection. Depending on the source implementation, the class can act as a DTO, a data-portal business object, or a small retrieval/persistence helper around that legal file-location record.*



## Context

- Namespace: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Legal.LegalNet`

- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Legal`
