Qualify more criminal defense leads before the first call
A basic contact form gives you a name, an email, and silence. Cliont greets every visitor with your video, walks them through their matter, collects documents, and hands you a scored, qualified lead.
A custom intake for every criminal defense matter
Each one is a ready-to-embed smart survey tuned to the matter — open any to try the exact experience your leads would complete.
Arson
Legal representation for someone accused of, charged with, or under investigation for arson — intentionally or recklessly setting fire to a building, vehicle, land, or other property — from the first contact with police or fire investigators through arraignment and trial.
Preview intake →
Assault and Battery
A lead where a prospective client has been accused, cited, arrested, or charged with assault or battery and needs criminal defense representation for that specific matter.
Preview intake →
Asset Forfeiture Defense
Representation for people or businesses trying to recover cash, vehicles, real estate, or other property seized by police or a government agency under civil or criminal forfeiture law — a distinct matter from defending the underlying criminal charge itself.
Preview intake →
Bail and Pretrial Release
Securing a client's release from custody or modifying existing bail/bond conditions (like lowering bail or removing restrictions) while a criminal case is pending, distinct from case defense on the underlying charge itself.
Preview intake →
Burglary and Robbery
Criminal defense matters involving alleged unlawful entry into a home, business, or vehicle to take property (burglary), or taking property from a person by force or threat (robbery) — qualification centers on arrest status, custody risk, and upcoming court deadlines.
Preview intake →
Child Abuse or Neglect Defense
Representation for someone under investigation, arrest, or charge for child abuse or child neglect, spanning CPS contact, police interviews, and formal criminal proceedings.
Preview intake →
Conspiracy Charges
A criminal allegation that two or more people agreed to commit an unlawful act, which can be charged even if the underlying crime was never completed, at either the state or federal level.
Preview intake →
Criminal Appeals
Representation for a client who has already been convicted or pleaded guilty/no contest and wants to challenge the conviction or sentence in a higher court, contingent on still being inside the filing deadline.
Preview intake →
Domestic Violence Defense
Representation for a person facing a criminal charge, citation, or investigation tied to an incident involving a spouse, partner, family member, or someone they live with, often paired with an active protective or no-contact order.
Preview intake →
Drug Conviction Expungement
Clearing, sealing, or setting aside a prior drug conviction (possession, sale, manufacturing, or paraphernalia) once the case, including any probation or drug court program, has fully ended.
Preview intake →
Drug Crimes
Criminal defense representation for a charge or investigation involving drug possession, intent to sell, sale, trafficking, manufacturing, or paraphernalia, qualified by arrest status, charge type, and any pending court deadline.
Preview intake →
DUI Aggravated
Defense of a DUI/DWI charge that carries aggravating circumstances — a crash, an injury, a child passenger, an especially high breath or blood alcohol result, or driving on a suspended license — from the perspective of what the intake needs to confirm before the case is worth a consultation slot.
Preview intake →
DUI Drug Related
Criminal defense representation for a DUI/DWI charge where impairment is alleged to involve drugs — marijuana, prescription medication, or other controlled substances — rather than (or in addition to) alcohol; qualification hinges on arrest recency, testing/refusal facts, and any looming court or DMV deadline.
Preview intake →
DUI / DWI
Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
Preview intake →
DUI Expungement
Removing or sealing a prior DUI/DWI conviction from the public record, which requires the underlying case to be fully closed (probation, suspension, alcohol program, and interlock complete) and the applicant to have no new convictions since.
Preview intake →
DUI First Offense
A first-time DUI/DWI arrest or citation with no prior convictions, where the intake needs to confirm arrest status, first-offense history, case timing, and whether the person is actually seeking representation.
Preview intake →
DUI Multiple Offense
Representation for a DUI/DWI charge where the client has at least one prior DUI/DWI conviction or guilty plea, which often triggers enhanced penalties, mandatory minimums, or felony exposure depending on jurisdiction and lookback period.
Preview intake →
DUI With Injury
A DUI charge in which another person was injured, distinct from a standard DUI because it typically carries enhanced charges, civil exposure, and stricter court timelines that the intake needs to surface immediately.
Preview intake →
Expungement and Record Sealing
A request to have a closed criminal case erased or hidden from public record, where eligibility depends on the case being fully resolved, the offense type, and how much time has passed since sentencing or probation ended.
Preview intake →
Federal Crimes
Representation for individuals under investigation, arrested, indicted, or facing sentencing in federal court on matters handled by agencies such as the FBI, DEA, ATF, IRS, or Homeland Security — distinct from state-level criminal charges.
Preview intake →
Felony Charges
Felony-level criminal charges — arrests, filed charges, or investigations that carry the possibility of significant prison time — where the intake needs to confirm the charge is genuinely felony-level, active, and inside the firm's jurisdiction before an attorney spends time on it.
Preview intake →
Felony Expungement
Clearing, sealing, reducing, or setting aside a felony conviction that has already run its course through the courts — distinct from fighting an open or new charge.
Preview intake →
Fraud and Embezzlement
Intake for prospective clients facing a fraud or embezzlement accusation, arrest, or investigation, built to separate personal criminal exposure from civil disputes or third-party matters before a consultation is booked.
Preview intake →
Grand Jury Proceedings
Grand jury proceedings cover subpoenas, target or subject notifications, and testimony requests tied to a criminal investigation before formal charges are filed. Qualifying this lead means confirming subpoena or target status, jurisdiction, any compliance deadline, and whether the caller is the person at risk or an authorized representative.
Preview intake →

Representation for a minor who has been arrested, cited, or contacted by police or juvenile authorities, covering everything from detention hearings and arraignments to probation matters in juvenile court.
Preview intake →

Defense representation for someone arrested, charged, or under investigation for kidnapping or unlawful restraint, assessed from the details an intake needs to confirm jurisdiction, charge status, and who is authorized to retain counsel.
Preview intake →
Misdemeanor Expungement
Misdemeanor expungement clears or seals a completed misdemeanor conviction from a person's public record, and only qualifies once the sentence, probation, and any conditions are fully finished with no new convictions since.
Preview intake →
Money Laundering
Screening for prospective clients who are being investigated, questioned, arrested, or charged with money laundering or a related financial crime, so a defense firm can confirm criminal exposure, U.S. jurisdiction, and case urgency before booking time.
Preview intake →
Post-Conviction Relief and Habeas
Petitions and motions filed after a conviction or sentence has already become final, seeking to overturn it or reduce it through state post-conviction relief statutes or federal habeas corpus, typically based on ineffective counsel, new evidence, misconduct, or an illegal sentence.
Preview intake →

Preview intake →
Sentencing Advocacy
Representation focused on the sentencing phase of a criminal case — advocating for a reduced sentence, alternative sentencing, or more favorable terms after a conviction or guilty plea, rather than contesting guilt itself.
Preview intake →
Sex Crimes
Screening for individuals who have been accused of, investigated for, or charged with a sex offense — including sexual assault, rape, child-related allegations, online solicitation, or possession/distribution of sexual images — and need to determine arrest status, deadlines, and existing representation before a consultation is booked.
Preview intake →
Sex Offender Registration Removal
A petition process to remove, reduce the tier of, or shorten the length of an existing sex offender registration requirement — distinct from defending against a new criminal charge.
