Inbound enquiry (Call / Email / Web)

Reception manually gathers info (e.g. "I need a divorce lawyer")

A person (legal secretary or lawyer) asks follow-up/qualifying questions: "How many children?" "How long married?" "Financial issues?"

Then explains next steps

Clients would usually then ask a few more questions via email

The lawyer will respond, and the engagement then depends on the client

Often no one follows up

Issues:

  • Manual movement of info across systems (CRM/PMS)
  • Lawyers are distracted from substantive work
  • Client never receives a personalised experience
  • Sales process is ineffective (no consistent qualification, quoting, or follow-up)
  • Many clients who would have engaged are lost due to lack of follow-up
