Automatic stay intake that captures post-filing timing up front
Prospective clients confirm whether their bankruptcy case is open, if the creditor action happened after filing, and whether real harm resulted, while uploading the violation notice or collection letter as proof.
The exact intake your automatic stay enforcement leads complete
This is the real 7-question guided intake for Automatic Stay Enforcement — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified automatic stay enforcement lead should tell you
A claim that a creditor, collector, landlord, lender, or utility took a collection action, lawsuit, eviction, repossession, foreclosure, garnishment, or shutoff after a bankruptcy case was filed, in violation of the automatic stay that freezes pre-petition debt actions.

The questions your team needs answered
Every automatic stay enforcement intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Have you filed a bankruptcy case in the United States (or do you have a bankruptcy case currently open)? | Without an open or filed bankruptcy case, there is no automatic stay to enforce, so this answer determines whether the matter belongs in this intake at all. |
| Did the collection, lawsuit, eviction, repossession, foreclosure, wage garnishment, or shutoff happen after you filed your bankruptcy case? | The action occurring after the filing date is the core fact that turns a collection dispute into a possible stay violation. |
| Was the action against you for a debt or bill that existed before you filed bankruptcy? | Confirming the debt predates the filing shows it's the type of pre-petition claim the automatic stay is meant to freeze. |
| Did the creditor, collector, landlord, lender, or utility company know about your bankruptcy when they took the action (for example, they were listed in your case or you told them)? | Whether the creditor knew about the case is often central to proving the violation was willful rather than accidental. |
| Did you suffer a real harm because of it (such as money taken, fees added, property taken, loss of housing, or utilities shut off)? | Documented harm, such as money taken or property lost, is what drives damages and the practical value of pursuing the matter. |
| Can you identify who took the action (the company/person and how to contact them)? | Being able to name and contact the violator determines how quickly the claim can actually be pursued. |
| Did this happen within the last 12 months? | How recently the violation happened affects both urgency for the client and how strong the record of events is likely to be. |

Built for automatic stay enforcement workflows
| Cliont capability | Automatic Stay Enforcement application |
|---|---|
| Conditional branching | When the case-status question comes back 'no,' the intake can stop pursuing stay-violation details since there is no active case to enforce a stay under. |
| Weighted scoring | Post-filing timing and creditor knowledge both carry the catalog's top weight, so a lead with both answered 'yes' automatically surfaces above one where either is uncertain. |
| Document upload widget | Collects the bankruptcy filing notice alongside the collection letter or court paper so the dates can be compared before the attorney takes the call. |
| CRM routing | Qualified stay-violation leads land in the CRM with case status, harm details, and the identified creditor's contact information already attached. |
Common automatic stay enforcement lead scenarios
Wage garnishment continues after filing
Employer keeps withholding wages weeks after the case was filed and the creditor was listed in it, so the intake surfaces case status, post-filing timing, and creditor knowledge together as a strong match.
No bankruptcy case filed yet
Caller is being harassed by collectors but has never actually filed, so the intake flags the low-weight answer to the case-status question and keeps it from reaching the calendar as a stay claim.
Repossession happened before filing
Vehicle was taken before the case was opened rather than after, so the post-filing timing answer comes back negative and the matter is routed as a lower-fit lead instead of an automatic stay violation.
Harm confirmed but violator unidentified
Caller lost money or property but cannot name the company or provide contact details, so the intake still captures the harm but scores it lower to reflect the added investigation work.
Violation is over a year old
The action took place well outside the last 12 months, so the intake records the older timing and lets the attorney judge how that affects strategy before booking a consultation.

Automatic Stay Enforcement lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake tell a real stay violation from a general debt complaint?
It walks the prospective client through whether they have an open case, whether the action happened after filing, whether the debt existed before filing, and whether the creditor knew about the case, which are the elements that separate a stay violation from ordinary collection activity.
What happens if someone hasn't actually filed for bankruptcy yet?
The case-status question carries a much lower weight on a 'no' answer, so those leads score lower and don't get treated as automatic stay claims, saving a consultation slot for someone with an active case.
Does the intake still capture leads who can't identify the creditor?
Yes, the intake asks whether the caller can identify the company or person and how to contact them, and still records the situation, but the score reflects that identifying the violator will take extra work.
What documents does the intake ask for on these matters?
It requests the bankruptcy filing notice or case number, the collection letter, court notice, garnishment order, or repossession/eviction paperwork showing the date, and any evidence of the harm suffered.
Why does the intake ask whether the violation happened in the last 12 months?
Recency affects how urgent and how provable a claim is, so the intake captures the timing separately from the other stay-violation elements rather than assuming every report is fresh.
How is this different from the wage garnishment relief or repossession defense intakes?
Those intakes focus on stopping a specific collection method, while the automatic stay enforcement intake checks whether any post-filing action, garnishment, repossession, or otherwise, violated the stay and whether the creditor knew about the case.
