Client Context

A small law firm specializing in family law, property conveyancing, and estate planning with 2 partners and 1 paralegal. They were drowning in administrative work that prevented them from focusing on billable legal work.

2 partners, 1 paralegal

The Problem

Time-Consuming Client Intake

Initial client consultations required 45-60 minutes just to gather basic information.

Partners were spending 8-10 hours per week on intake calls that could have been spent on legal work.

Document Collection Chaos

Chasing clients for documents (IDs, property titles, financial statements) took multiple phone calls and emails over 2-3 weeks.

Matters were delayed waiting for paperwork.

Conflict Checks Delays

Manual conflict checking through spreadsheets and memory meant delays in taking on new clients.

They'd previously had a near-miss with a conflict of interest.

Inconsistent Follow-Up

Potential clients who inquired but didn't immediately book were rarely followed up with.

Lost revenue from unconverted leads.
