Before You Use This Email
Why This Approach Works
Platform Setup Steps
Trigger
A person intentionally submits an inbound PI inquiry and passes contact, duplicate, jurisdiction, and conflict-routing checks.
Segment
Inbound PI inquiries with usable contact data and no duplicate, conflict hold, decline, representation, or active staff conversation.
Delay
After form/call synchronization and the required conflict-routing check.
Reply owner: Assigned legal intake coordinator responsible for identity, conflicts, scheduling, disposition, and attorney escalation.
- Record the inquiry source and run duplicate, identity, service-area, and conflict routing.
- Insert the approved intake boundary, current consultation path, secure form, and owner.
- Send once, create the intake task, and route deadline, safety, representation, or legal questions to qualified staff.
Stop conditions
- Stop on human contact, booking, completed intake, decline, conflict, disqualification, representation, opt-out, or invalid contact.
- Stop if the scheduling or secure-intake link is unavailable.
- Stop automation immediately when an urgent deadline, safety issue, or substantive legal question is reported.
Mistakes To Avoid
- Saying the firm reviewed or accepted the case
An automated receipt event does not establish either fact.
Use instead: Confirm receipt and describe the next intake step.
- Using deadline fear to force a booking
The applicable deadline cannot be determined from a generic workflow.
Use instead: Direct urgent deadline questions to qualified firm staff without stating a period.
