Why generic intake breaks
- Bankruptcy callers are often stressed and may have immediate creditor deadlines.
- A trustee, creditor, or existing client needs routing, not prospect intake.
- Chapter fit depends on income, assets, household, and prior filings.
- The firm needs enough detail to decide whether a consult is worthwhile.
Call path
- Triage pressure: Foreclosure, garnishment, repossession, lawsuit, tax debt, or collection activity.
- Screen fit: Income, household, assets, debts, prior filings, and documents.
- Route non-leads: Existing clients, trustees, creditors, vendors, and courts follow separate rules.
- Schedule next step: Book consultation, request documents, or send urgent notification.
Bankruptcy intake overlay
- What debt or creditor issue are you calling about?
- Is there a foreclosure, garnishment, repossession, lawsuit, or deadline?
- What is your approximate household income and household size?
- Have you filed bankruptcy before?
- Do you own a home, vehicle, or business assets?
Routing and escalation rules
- Trustees, creditors, courts, and vendors can route or be tagged as non-lead callers.
- Foreclosure sale dates, wage garnishments, and repossessions can trigger escalation.
- Existing clients can route to case staff without new intake.
- Chapter-fit notes can be included before the consult is booked.
Scheduling workflow
- Offer the correct consultation after capturing creditor pressure, deadlines, income, household, assets, prior filings, and representation under firm rules.
- Prioritize configured foreclosure, garnishment, repossession, lawsuit, utility, or filing deadlines for staff review.
Bilingual support
- Ask debt, asset, income, and deadline questions in the caller’s supported language while preserving uncertainty for attorney review.
- Record language preference so worksheets and consultation instructions use the correct approved version.
After-call follow-up
- Send the approved bankruptcy worksheet, document checklist, and consultation confirmation only after consent and successful delivery.
- Give staff the creditor-pressure timeline, household and asset context, prior filings, missing documents, and assigned next action.
