Identity theft intake that separates suspects from victims
Ask whether they've been arrested or contacted by law enforcement, whether the case is still open, and whether a court date is coming in the next 60 days — then collect police reports or charging paperwork before routing qualified leads to your CRM.

The questions your team needs answered
Every identity theft and cybercrimes intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Are you in the United States and looking for a criminal defense lawyer (not help reporting a scam or fixing credit)? | Separates people who need a criminal defense lawyer from those who actually want help reporting a scam or repairing their credit, which this intake shouldn't route as a case. |
| Have you been arrested, charged, or contacted by police or prosecutors about identity theft, fraud, hacking, or another online-related crime? | Confirms law enforcement is already involved, which is the strongest single signal that this is a real defense matter rather than a hypothetical concern. |
| Is the case still open or could charges still be filed (not fully resolved with no further action expected)? | A case that's fully resolved with no further action expected needs no defense work, so this filters out closed matters from taking consultation time. |
| Is there a court date, deadline, or interview/meeting with law enforcement coming up within the next 60 days? | A near-term court date or law enforcement meeting means the attorney has a real deadline to work against, which should move the lead ahead of ones with no pending date. |
| Did the investigation or charges involve using someone else’s identity or accounts, or accessing a computer/network without permission? | Identifies whether the alleged conduct involved identity/account misuse or unauthorized computer access, which helps the attorney gauge the applicable statutes before the call. |
| Are you the person being investigated or charged (not only a victim trying to recover money or fix your identity)? | The single most important filter on this page — a victim looking to recover funds needs a different kind of help than someone under investigation, and this question catches that mismatch directly. |
| Do you know which state the case is in, or where the alleged incident happened? | Knowing the state or location of the alleged incident lets the firm confirm jurisdiction and licensing fit before booking a consultation. |

Built for identity theft and cybercrimes workflows
| Cliont capability | Identity Theft And Cybercrimes application |
|---|---|
| Conditional disqualification logic | A 'no' on whether the person is the one being investigated (not just a victim) or on whether they're seeking criminal defense rather than scam-reporting help routes the lead away from consultation booking automatically. |
| Weighted urgency scoring | Arrest/charge status, open-case status, and an upcoming court date or law enforcement interview are each weighted heavily, so time-sensitive identity theft and cybercrime matters surface above cases with no near-term deadline. |
| Document upload capture | Prospective clients can attach police reports, charging documents, or law enforcement correspondence during intake so the attorney has the paper trail before the first call. |
| CRM routing with score attached | Only leads that clear the suspect-vs-victim and jurisdiction questions arrive in the CRM with a score, so staff can prioritize open, near-term cases over resolved or victim-only inquiries. |
Common identity theft and cybercrimes lead scenarios
Charged with a pending court date
The prospective client was arrested or charged, the case is still open, and a court date or law enforcement interview is set within 60 days — the intake pushes this straight to the top of the queue.
Contacted by investigators, no charges yet
Police or prosecutors have reached out but charges haven't been filed; the intake still flags this as high value since the case could still result in charges.
Victim, not the accused
The person filling out the intake is the one who had their identity stolen and is looking to recover money or fix their credit, not someone under investigation — the intake catches this at the 'are you the person being investigated' question and routes it away from consultation slots.
Cybercrime case in an unknown jurisdiction
The prospective client knows they're under investigation for unauthorized computer access but isn't sure which state the case is filed in, so the intake still scores it but flags jurisdiction as unconfirmed for a follow-up call rather than an immediate booking.
Scam-reporting request, not a defense case
Someone lands on the intake wanting help reporting a scam or disputing fraudulent charges rather than defending against charges — the first question filters this out before it reaches the attorney's calendar.

Identity Theft and Cybercrimes lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake tell a defendant apart from a victim of identity theft?
One question asks directly whether the person filling out the form is the one being investigated or charged, not just a victim trying to recover money or fix their identity. A 'no' here scores low, since defending a criminal case and helping a fraud victim are different services.
What if the person hasn't been formally charged yet, just contacted by police?
The intake asks separately whether they've been arrested, charged, or contacted by police or prosecutors, and whether the case is still open or charges could still be filed. Both can score high even before formal charges exist, since early representation often matters most.
Can the intake surface cases with a court date coming up soon?
Yes — one question asks whether there's a court date, deadline, or law enforcement interview within the next 60 days, which is weighted heavily so time-sensitive cases stand out from ones with no near-term deadline.
Does the intake screen out people who just want to report a scam or fix their credit?
Yes, the first question asks whether the person is looking for a criminal defense lawyer specifically, not help reporting a scam or repairing credit. That answer determines whether the rest of the intake even applies to this practice.
What happens if the caller doesn't know which state their case is in?
The intake asks whether they know the state or location of the alleged incident. Not knowing lowers the score slightly but doesn't disqualify the lead, since jurisdiction can often be confirmed on a follow-up call.
Does the intake distinguish identity theft from other types of cybercrime?
Yes, one question asks whether the investigation or charges involved using someone else's identity or accounts, or accessing a computer or network without permission, so you can see the specific conduct alleged before the consultation.
