Gaps between your staff and you
Your assistant captures the inquiry. You're in court, on a call, or out of the office. The handoff — sticky note, email, or hallway mention — creates a delay. In that delay, the prospect hires someone else.
For Solo + Staff
When intake is split between you and your staff, inquiries fall through the cracks. FirmFirst gives your whole team one system — so every inquiry is captured, triaged, and ready for your review.

Your assistant did everything right. Your system failed. One sticky note. One lost client.

ABA Legal Technology Survey
One place to see every inquiry, its status, and who's handling it. Your assistant sees what you see. No more sticky notes, no more "did you call them back?" conversations.
Your paralegal or assistant reviews incoming inquiries, adds context (case type, urgency, special circumstances), and flags the ones that need your immediate attention. When you look at your phone, the work is done.
When a high-priority inquiry arrives, you get a text with everything: prospect name, case details, staff notes, and intelligence signals. Call back from your phone in minutes, fully prepared.
When your staff goes home, FirmFirst keeps working. Prospects get an immediate acknowledgment. You get a text notification. The 42% of after-hours inquiries are no longer lost.
Web form, email, or phone — FirmFirst captures it and creates a prospect record automatically. Your assistant and you both see it instantly.
Inquiry arrives
Your assistant reviews the inquiry, adds notes (case type, urgency, special details), and flags it for your review. No sticky notes, no email forwarding.
Staff triages
Text and email with prospect details, staff notes, and intelligence signals. Review on your phone — between meetings, at lunch, or from home.
You're notified with full context
Employment data, contact validity, and your assistant's notes — all in one view. You respond in minutes, not hours. The prospect is impressed and hires you.
You call back prepared
"My paralegal used to forward me emails with prospect details. Half the time I'd miss them. Now we both see the same dashboard, she adds her notes, and I call back prepared. We stopped losing leads overnight."
Yes. FirmFirst supports multiple users on the same account. Your assistant sees the inquiry pipeline, adds notes, and triages. You see everything they see, plus intelligence reports. Each user gets their own login.
When an inquiry arrives, your assistant (or you) can review it, add notes about case type, urgency, or special circumstances, and flag it for follow-up. You get notified with the full context — inquiry details plus staff notes — so you can call back prepared.
FirmFirst sends an automatic acknowledgment to the prospect and notifies you immediately via text. Your assistant doesn't need to be at the desk. The inquiry is captured, the prospect knows they've been heard, and you can respond when you're ready.
No. FirmFirst makes your assistant more effective. It eliminates the manual parts of intake (sticky notes, email forwarding, data re-entry) so your assistant can focus on higher-value work like scheduling, document preparation, and client communication.
