Intake Operations Diagnostic

Where Are Your Leads Going to Die?

Most law firms think they need more leads. They actually need to stop losing the ones they already paid for.

We'll call your firm as a real prospect, document exactly what happens, and walk you through where you're losing cases. No pitch. Just data.

20–40%

of inbound opportunities lost before a conversation starts

15 min

maximum response window before lead quality drops sharply

8–12x

follow-up attempts needed to convert a qualified lead

The Real Problem

You Don't Have a Lead Problem. You Have an Operations Problem.

Every dollar you spend on marketing assumes someone is ready to catch the lead on the other end. Most firms aren't. The intake process — the moment between a prospect reaching out and a case being booked — is where revenue disappears quietly, every single day.

Where Your Leads Actually Go

Inbound Lead

Paid or organic — you spent money to get here

Missed Call

No live answer. Voicemail. No callback within 15 min.

No Follow-Up

1-2 attempts. Lead goes cold. Staff moves on.

No Booking

Consultation never scheduled. Case never evaluated.

Lost Case

Competitor answered. They signed the client. You paid for the lead.

This happens every day at firms that haven't fixed their intake operations.

What We Audit

Five Areas. One Clear Picture.

Our intake audit scores your firm across the five areas that determine whether leads become clients — or become someone else's clients.

Section 1

Speed to Lead

How fast does your firm actually respond to new inquiries? The data says you have 15 minutes — or less.

Section 2

Call Coverage

If calls go to voicemail, the lead is already gone. Are you answering 100% of the time — including nights and weekends?

Section 3

Follow-Up Persistence

The average firm makes 1.3 follow-up attempts. Conversion requires 8-12. That gap is where your marketing budget disappears.

Section 4

Intake Quality

Intake is a sales conversation. An unstructured call is a missed conversion opportunity — every single time.

Section 5

Systems & Visibility

You can't fix what you can't see. Most firms make marketing decisions based on instinct. That's expensive instinct.

What You Get

A Real Test. Real Data. No Guesswork.

Secret Shopper Call

We call your firm as a prospective client and document exactly what happens — response time, tone, follow-up, everything.

Attorney Assist is truly in a league of its own. Andrew and Ellie have been on this roller coaster with us, and their support throughout the process has been incredible. Their customer service is stellar — responsive, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in our success. Our first assistant wasn’t the right fit, and that’s okay. Andrew and Ellie stepped in, guided us through the transition, and made sure our next hire was an amazing addition to our team. The difference has been night and day. What sets Attorney Assist apart is that this isn’t just a typical VA service. Our assistant is fully integrated into our workflow and feels like a true member of our team — not just someone answering phones.
