What this blueprint gives you

The new-client funnel for a small law firm, built around what actually has to happen before “you’re our client”: a clean intake form, a conflict check against existing matters, a triage decision, an engagement letter that gets signed, and a first payment. One branded URL the firm can hand out instead of a forwarded email thread.

Five planning documents (BRAND, MRD, BRD, PRD, DESIGN) at senior-team depth covering the intake form builder, conflict checking, triage, document automation, eSignature, and the privileged data handling that legal work demands.

MRD — Legal Intake Portal The problem A small law firm gets a Google call, a contact form submission, and a referral text in the same hour. The information is incomplete. Someone has to call the prospect back, ask the same five questions a paralegal already asked yesterday, then chase a Word doc engagement letter through Gmail and DocuSign, hope the retainer hits the trust account, and try to remember to run a conflict check somewhere in the middle. A meaningful percentage of qualified prospects
