Hit-and-run intake that flags police contact before you call back
Our intake walks prospective clients through whether police made contact, whether the scene was left before information was exchanged, and how recently the incident occurred — then requests citation or arrest paperwork and photos of vehicle damage before the lead reaches your CRM.
The exact intake your hit and run defense leads complete
This is the real 7-question guided intake for Hit and Run Defense — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.

The questions your team needs answered
Every hit and run defense intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Are you looking for a lawyer to defend you against a hit-and-run accusation or charge? | Confirms the caller is actually facing a hit-and-run accusation rather than a related but different traffic matter. |
| Did the incident happen in the United States? | Filters out incidents that occurred outside US jurisdiction, which fall outside most criminal defense practices' scope. |
| Have you been contacted by police, received a ticket/citation, or been arrested related to this incident? | Signals whether law enforcement action has already started, which changes both urgency and case strategy. |
| Did you leave the scene before exchanging information or before police arrived? | Isolates the specific element of leaving the scene that distinguishes a hit-and-run charge from a routine accident report. |
| Did the incident involve another vehicle, a person, or property damage (even minor)? | Indicates whether the incident involved a person, vehicle, or property damage, which affects potential charge severity. |
| Did the incident happen within the last 2 years? | Flags older incidents that may raise statute-of-limitations or evidence-availability concerns. |
| Are you able to hire a lawyer or apply for a public defender if you qualify? | Surfaces whether the prospective client can retain private counsel or is more likely to need a public defender referral. |

Common hit and run defense lead scenarios
Citation already issued
Caller confirms police contact and a citation for leaving the scene of a recent crash — the intake weights this combination highest since charges are already active.
No police contact yet
Caller left the scene of a minor fender-bender but hasn't heard from police; the intake still captures the case but flags it as lower urgency than an active citation.
Incident outside the US or old
Caller describes an incident that happened abroad or more than two years ago — the intake surfaces jurisdiction or timing concerns before you spend time on the call.
Can't afford private counsel
Caller confirms the hit-and-run details but indicates they may need a public defender rather than private representation, letting you route the lead accordingly.

Hit and Run Defense lead-intake FAQs
What if the caller says police haven't contacted them yet about the incident?
The intake still records the case using the police-contact question, but weights it lower than a confirmed citation or arrest since the legal exposure isn't yet formalized.
How does the intake handle incidents that happened outside the US?
The intake asks directly whether the incident occurred in the United States, since out-of-country matters fall outside most criminal defense practices' scope.
Does the intake distinguish between property damage and injuries?
Yes, the intake asks whether the incident involved another vehicle, a person, or property damage, which affects the potential charge severity you're being asked to take on.
What if the incident happened over two years ago?
The intake asks about the timing of the incident directly, and older cases are weighted lower to reflect statute-of-limitations and evidence concerns.
How does the intake handle someone who can't afford a lawyer?
One question directly asks whether the prospective client can hire a lawyer or would apply for a public defender, so you can see fee capacity before the consultation.
What exactly counts as 'leaving the scene' in this intake?
The intake asks whether the caller left before exchanging information or before police arrived, which is the core element separating a hit-and-run charge from an ordinary accident.
