The questions your team needs answered

Every partnership disputes intake asks these — and why each one matters.

QuestionWhy it matters
Is the dispute about a business partnership, co-owners of a business, or a joint venture?Confirms this is genuinely a partnership, co-ownership, or joint venture conflict rather than a dispute with a customer, vendor, or employee that belongs in a different practice area.
Is the business or partnership mainly based in the United States?Screens for a US-based business, since a dispute governed by foreign law or courts may sit outside the firm's jurisdiction.
Are you a partner/co-owner (or an authorized representative of one) in the business involved in the dispute?Establishes whether the caller actually has standing as a partner or authorized representative, versus an employee or outside investor with no direct claim.
Is the dispute current or did it happen within the last 3 years?Separates active or recent disputes from stale ones, where limitations periods or lost evidence may already limit what can be done.
Is there a written agreement involved (such as a partnership agreement, operating agreement, or buy-sell agreement)?Flags whether a written partnership, operating, or buy-sell agreement exists, which materially changes how complex and predictable the matter is.
Are you seeking a business-related outcome such as money owed, access to records, stopping harmful actions, or a buyout/exit?Identifies the concrete remedy being sought — money, records, an injunction, or a buyout — so the matter can be routed toward negotiation or litigation appropriately.
Can you identify the other partner(s) or co-owner(s) involved (name and role/company)?Indicates whether the other side can be named, which affects whether a conflict check can be run before the first call.

Built for partnership disputes workflows

Weighted scoringCombines the partnership-type, US-location, standing, timing, agreement, and outcome answers into a single priority score, so a well-documented current dispute with a clear buyout ask outranks a vague or dated inquiry.
Document captureLets prospective clients attach the partnership or operating agreement and any correspondence directly during intake, so you're not chasing documents before the first call.
Standing checkFlags callers who aren't partners, co-owners, or authorized representatives so you can see immediately whether they even have a claim of the type you handle.
CRM routingSends only leads who confirm a genuine partnership dispute, US-based business, and a business-related outcome into your CRM, keeping matters outside your practice out of your pipeline.

Common partnership disputes lead scenarios

Co-owner seeking a buyout

A partner with a written operating agreement wants out and is asking about valuation and exit terms — a clear, well-documented matter the intake flags as high priority.

No written agreement in place

Two co-owners split revenue on a handshake deal and now disagree over control; the intake still captures this, but flags the missing written agreement so you can scope the call differently.

Caller isn't actually a partner

An employee or minority investor with no ownership stake wants to challenge how the business is run; the intake surfaces this early since they may lack standing to bring the type of claim you handle.

Dispute is old or overseas

A falling-out from five years ago involving a company based outside the US comes in; the timing and location answers let you see this doesn't fit your usual matters before you offer time.

Can't name the other partner

A prospective client wants advice but won't or can't identify the other co-owner involved, which limits your ability to run a conflict check before the first call.

Partnership Disputes lead-intake FAQs

How does the intake screen out people who aren't actually partners?

The intake directly asks whether the person is a partner, co-owner, or authorized representative of one. Someone answering as an employee, customer, or outside party is flagged as lower fit rather than routed in as a standard partnership matter.

What happens if there's no written partnership agreement?

The intake still captures the dispute, but records whether a partnership, operating, or buy-sell agreement exists. A missing agreement doesn't disqualify the lead, but it changes the complexity of the matter you're walking into.

Does the intake account for disputes involving businesses outside the US?

Yes. It asks whether the business or partnership is mainly based in the United States, since disputes governed by foreign law or courts may fall outside what your firm handles.

Can the intake tell whether a prospective client wants litigation versus something less adversarial?

It asks what business outcome they're seeking — money owed, access to records, stopping harmful actions, or a buyout — so you can see early whether this looks like a negotiation, a demand letter, or litigation.

How does timing factor into how these leads are scored?

The intake asks whether the dispute is current or happened within the last three years. Older disputes score lower, since limitations periods or evidentiary issues may already affect the matter.

What can prospective clients upload during the intake?

They can attach the partnership, operating, or buy-sell agreement, along with correspondence or financial records related to the dispute, so those documents are already in your CRM before you review the lead.
