Lawmatics Intake & CRM Configuration

The Most Powerful Legal CRM,
Built Around How Clients Actually Arrive

Lawmatics can run your entire intake operation — capture, qualification, follow-up, scheduling, signature, and attribution — with almost no manual work. Most firms use it as an expensive contact list. We build the pipeline that Bay Legal runs on.

The Problem

Your Marketing Isn’t the Problem

Firms spend real money on Google Ads, SEO, referral cultivation and directories, then conclude the marketing doesn’t work because the leads don’t convert.

Usually the marketing is fine. The bucket leaks.

An inquiry arrives on a Friday evening and sits in an inbox until Monday. A lead goes cold after two follow-ups because nobody scheduled a third. A consultation gets booked over email across six messages. The engagement letter waits three days for someone to notice it needs sending. And at the end of the quarter nobody can say which marketing channel produced the clients, so next year’s budget is a guess.

Lawmatics is built to eliminate all of that. It’s the most capable CRM in legal. But it does nothing on its own — it’s a platform that has to be designed around your intake, and most firms never get past the default configuration they were handed at onboarding.

The pattern we see in audits: pipelines running three or four stages when the firm’s actual intake process has eight or ten. Automations built once and then switched off after they misfired. Drip sequences that stop at two touches. Forms that capture a name and a phone number and nothing that would let you qualify or attribute the lead later.

Where You Are Now

Two Ways Firms Come to Us

You’re implementing Lawmatics

New to the platform, or replacing Clio Grow or a general-purpose CRM. Clean build: pipeline architecture, automation, forms, scheduling, e-signature, attribution.

You have Lawmatics and it isn’t converting

You bought it, configured some of it, and the pipeline doesn’t reflect reality. We audit what’s running, map it against how leads actually move through your firm, and rebuild.

What We Configure

What a Complete Lawmatics Build Includes

  • Intake pipeline architecture — stages that match how a lead actually moves through your firm: inquiry, contacted, consultation booked, consultation held, engagement sent, retained. Not a generic four-stage default.
  • Automated response — every inquiry acknowledged within minutes, regardless of source or hour, so no lead sits in silence while a competitor calls back.
  • Qualification workflows — the questions that determine fit, asked consistently, with the answers captured as structured data rather than free-text notes.
  • Consultation scheduling — calendar integration with confirmations, reminders, and no-show follow-up, so booking doesn’t consume six emails.
  • Drip and re-engagement campaigns — sequences that keep working on cold leads for 90 days or more. Most firms stop after two touches; most conversions happen after that.
  • E-signature and engagement letters — documents generated and sent from the pipeline, with signature status visible as a stage rather than a question.
  • Lead source attribution — every inquiry tagged to its channel, so you can see cost per signed client by source instead of guessing which marketing to renew.
  • Clio integration — when a lead signs, the matter creates itself in Clio with intake data carried across. Integration detail →
  • Team training — live sessions with whoever handles intake, because a pipeline nobody updates is worse than no pipeline.

XPRTS vs Other CRM Consultants

Why XPRTS Is Different

Intake is the part of a law firm where small delays cost the most, and it’s the part most often run on habit. We treat it as infrastructure.

The Process

How the Engagement Runs

1

Strategy Review — free, 30–45 minutes

We look at how inquiries currently reach your firm, what happens to them, and where they stop. Written recommendation within 48 hours.

2

Intake audit — week 1

We trace real leads through your current process and document every point where one could be lost. Most owners have never seen this mapped.

3

Build — weeks 2–4

Pipeline, automations, forms, scheduling, templates, attribution, and the Clio connection if it applies.

4

Training and handoff

Live sessions with your intake staff, documentation, and a 30-day review once real leads have run through the new pipeline.

A standard Lawmatics build runs three to four weeks. Combined Clio and Lawmatics engagements with full integration run six to eight.

Common Questions

About Lawmatics Consulting

Most firms need eight to ten. The common default is three or four, which collapses distinct steps — a booked consultation and a held consultation are different states requiring different follow-up, and a pipeline that treats them as one can’t tell you where leads are actually stalling. The right number is however many stages your firm genuinely distinguishes between when deciding what to do next.
Clio Grow is capable and it’s included if you’re already paying for Clio, which makes it the right answer for firms with straightforward intake. Lawmatics is substantially more powerful on automation, drip sequencing, attribution, and marketing workflow — it’s the better choice for firms doing meaningful lead generation or running multiple practice areas with different intake logic. We configure both.
Yes. Lawmatics integrates with several practice management platforms including PracticePanther and MyCase. Our deepest expertise is the Clio integration because that’s the stack we run, but if your firm is committed to a different platform we’ll tell you honestly during the Strategy Review whether the integration will do what you need.
The usual causes are a trigger condition that never becomes true, an automation disabled after it misfired once and never re-enabled, or a pipeline stage that staff skip in practice so the automation waiting on it never activates. It’s almost always a design problem rather than a platform fault, and it’s diagnosable in an audit.
Faster than feels necessary. Response speed is among the strongest predictors of conversion in every study of inbound lead handling, and the advantage decays in minutes rather than hours. The practical target is an automated acknowledgment within minutes of any inquiry, at any hour, followed by a human contact during business hours.
The ability to spend marketing money on evidence. With attribution configured, you can see not just which channels produce inquiries but which produce signed clients and at what cost — those are frequently different answers, and the channel producing the most leads is often not the one producing the most revenue.
