1. Turn a blank first contact into a guided explanation
A standard contact form asks a visitor to supply a name, contact details and a free-text account of a legal problem. Bosseo describes Video Intake as a guided survey delivered with video, with one question at a time and a path built around the firm’s practice areas. That distinction matters when a visitor is uncertain about what information belongs in an initial inquiry. For a Homeacre-Lyndora firm, the implementation decision is whether the website should present one general intake path or separate paths for the matters the firm actually reviews. The answer should come from the firm’s accepted case types and consultation rules, not from the community’s population estimate.
Recommended approach
Map the first screen, the opening explanation and the minimum information needed for each practice area. Review whether the wording is understandable on a phone, whether visitors can stop without confusion, and whether the experience makes clear that completing an intake is not the same as establishing an attorney-client relationship. Confirm the firm’s preferred next step before publishing the flow.
