Legal Services · AI Intake
AI client intake for law firms.
20 hours a week freed from admin, intake that never misses a call, and the retained-matter math — sourced, not hyped.
Callers don’t leave a second voicemail. They call the next firm on the list.
Every figure above is from a publicly documented third-party source, cited underneath. We publish the source with the number, and we do not publish an estimate of what any of it would be worth to your firm. Agentic builds equivalent systems customized to your firm, data, and processes.
Why intake is the primary lever on firm revenue
Every matter your firm will ever bill starts as an inquiry — and inquiries are perishable. A prospect who calls three firms retains the one that responds first with something competent. When intake depends on whoever can grab the phone between hearings, qualified matters leak to whichever competitor answered.
What one additional retained matter a month is worth depends on your average engagement and your practice areas — numbers you have and we do not. We would rather work from yours on a call than publish an estimate of them here.
Intake Agent
Screens every inquiry — phone, form, or referral — against your practice-area criteria, runs a conflict check against existing contacts, and lands qualified matters in your practice management system, properly coded.
Document Agent
Assembles engagement letters, standard filings, and client packets from matter data — reviewed by a human before anything goes out, but never typed from scratch again.
Client Update Agent
Matter milestones trigger plain-English status updates automatically, logged to the matter — so clients stop calling to ask what's happening and staff stop stopping to answer.
None of these require replacing your practice management platform — they run as an intelligence layer on top of it.
Questions we get every time.
Does this replace Clio, MyCase, or PracticePanther?
No. Your practice management system stays the system of record. This is an intelligence layer built around it — intake creates properly coded matters in it, documents file to it, and every client touch is logged against it.
What about privilege and confidentiality?
Systems are built with access scoped to what each workflow needs, full audit logs, and human review gates on anything client-facing. We scope the confidentiality posture with your firm before touching live matter data.
Is the 20-hours-per-week figure something you guarantee for our firm?
It is from a published third-party case study, named and dated in the sources below. Results vary by practice area, volume and how much of your intake is manual today, so what is realistic for your firm is a conversation after an intro call, worked from your own numbers.
Will AI draft legal work product?
Only where you want it, and never unreviewed. The highest-ROI automation in most firms is intake, documents, and client communication — the admin around the lawyering, not the lawyering itself.
Can it run a conflict check before we take the matter?
Yes — the intake agent screens new inquiries against your existing contacts and matters before anything is accepted, and flags potential conflicts for a person to clear rather than clearing them itself.
What stops it from giving legal advice to a caller?
Scope. It gathers facts, screens against your practice-area criteria, and schedules — it does not answer legal questions, and it says so plainly when asked. The attorney-client relationship forms where it always did: with a lawyer at your firm.
What happens if we stop working with you?
Your data is yours — exportable any time, deleted on request. The system is ours to run for you. The build is fixed-scope and agreed in writing before we start, and the operating plan is month-to-month with no lock-in. Stop the plan and the system stops running; you leave with your data. See how we work for the full picture on scope and process.
