    Added Annualized Revenue

A mid-sized personal injury firm in Phoenix, Arizona was overwhelmed by rising lead volume, missing calls and delaying follow-ups as attorneys were pulled into intake. Local hiring was too slow and costly, exceeding $710,000 annually.

Legal Intaker deployed five intake specialists and two remote attorneys within 72 hours. Within 45 days, response times improved by 48%, conversion increased by 40%, and intake backlogs were eliminated—restoring same-day consultations and consistent client communication.

"Our phones were ringing nonstop, but we were losing good cases because we couldn’t respond fast enough. Attorneys were doing intake instead of practicing law, and it was unsustainable. Legal Intaker stepped in with a fully trained team that immediately stabilized our intake and legal workflow. It felt like we added an entire department overnight."

– Managing Partner

Over the next ten months, the firm expanded their virtual team to nine legal intake professionals, increased signed cases by 45%, reduced time from inquiry to consultation by 50%, and improved client satisfaction scores by 55%. By removing intake bottlenecks and attorney overload, the firm transformed its front-end operations into a scalable growth engine—driving revenue growth exceeding 38% while maintaining a high standard of client service.

Goals & Objectives

Our case study examines how mid-sized law firms accelerate growth and protect client experience by leveraging Legal Intaker’s remote intake specialists and attorneys—avoiding the time, cost, and operational strain of traditional local hiring while building a more efficient, responsive practice.
