Law Firm Intake Chat Playbook (Thailand)
Searches like “law firm LINE Thailand,” “legal consultation WhatsApp intake,” and “lawyer chat enquiry playbook Bangkok” need ops discipline — not a generic auto-reply that promises outcomes. Corporate, family, immigration, and litigation firms juggle Thai and English enquiries; intake fails when matter type, urgency, and conflict flags never get tagged before partner handoff.
Real estate intake parallel: real estate LINE enquiry playbook (Thailand). Education intake: online course education chat intake playbook.
Intake
Tags every law firm chat thread must capture
- Matter type: corporate, family, immigration, litigation, IP — routed practice group
- Urgency tier: court deadline, contract signing, general enquiry — SLA tag
- Language preference: Thai, English, bilingual — agent assignment
- Conflict-check status: names collected, pending review, cleared — stop-rule gate
- Consultation intent: fee enquiry, document review, full representation — tier tag
SLA
Reply targets intake staff can defend to partners
- Urgent court-deadline enquiry: first human reply under 30 minutes in coverage hours
- Standard consultation request: under 2 hours with matter-type acknowledgement
- Fee-only enquiry: under 4 hours with approved fee-range script — no outcome promises
- After-hours: honest next-business-day auto-reply — no “lawyer will call now”
Scripts
Approved intake language for LINE and WhatsApp
- Acknowledge enquiry — collect matter type and parties from approved intake form
- Use disclaimer script — no legal advice in chat before consultation booked
- Run conflict-check stop-rule before naming partner or quoting strategy
- Send consultation booking link with tagged matter reference — one thread continuity
- Escalate court-deadline threads with priority tag — not generic queue
Stop-Rules
What law firm chat must never freestyle
- Never provide legal advice or outcome predictions in chat — use consultation referral
- Never confirm representation before conflict check clears
- Never quote final fees beyond approved range sheet without partner tag
- Never share another client’s matter details — confidentiality risk
FAQ
FAQs on law firm intake chat in Thailand
LINE or WhatsApp for Thai law firm intake?
Domestic clients cluster on LINE; expat and cross-border matters often start on WhatsApp. Run both into one shared queue with the same matter-type and conflict tags — do not split intake across partner personal phones.
