The work behind the enquiry

Different practice areas. Different information to collect.

Set enquiry categories and field labels around the work your practice handles. Reception captures the stated need; the authorised lawyer decides the professional scope and whether to accept the engagement.

Commercial disputes

Parties, dispute reference and the requested consultation.

Contracts & business advisory

Document type, organisation and the point needing review.

Employment matters

Enquirer’s role, employer reference and contact preference.

Family & personal matters

A discreet contact route and the assigned specialist.

Enforcement follow-up

The supplied reference and the question awaiting clarification.

Real estate & construction

Contract or property reference and the parties’ contact roles.

Corporate & governance

Company account, authorised contact and the advisory request.

Intellectual property

Rights-holder contact, subject and the requested service.

One person may have more than one enquiry

Know which conversation you are continuing.

Link company accounts to their representatives, retain the service reference in supported fields and review previous interactions. A phone call, attachment enquiry and consultation reminder can each return to the relevant contact context.

Before the meeting

A document request can be precise

Specify what is missing and who will follow it up.
