Intake for Baltimore personal-injury firms.
Casestead installs intake systems for personal-injury firms in Baltimore: every web form, chat and after-hours inquiry answered in about a minute, qualified callers booked with your intake team, and a weekly scoreboard of cost per signed case by lead source.
Why the first minute matters in Baltimore
People hurt in Baltimore usually contact more than one firm, often from a phone and often after hours. The firm that answers first, about the person's own situation, is usually the one that books the consult.
Baltimore is a major Atlantic port, a primary biomedical research centre (Johns Hopkins), and a federal-services-adjacent economy.
What we install
- Reply desk. Web forms, chats and after-hours inquiries get a reply in about a minute, in the channel the person used, about the question they asked. Callers are qualified on your written criteria and booked with your intake staff.
- Follow-up drafts. Unsigned consults don't go quiet. Follow-ups are drafted for your intake lead to approve, and only ever go to people who contacted your firm.
- Owner scoreboard. Every Monday: inquiries, consults, signed cases, response times, and cost per signed case for each lead source, from your own systems.
Maryland context for intake
The general limitation period for personal-injury negligence claims in Maryland is 3 years. Inquiries about older incidents are flagged for a lawyer instead of being booked like a new case.
Maryland is one of the few jurisdictions that still applies contributory negligence: a claimant found even slightly at fault can be barred from recovery, so how the incident happened matters from the very first message.
General rules for context only, not legal advice. Exceptions apply (minors, government defendants, discovery rules, recent amendments). Your firm's lawyers decide.

Questions
Do you work with personal-injury firms in Baltimore?
Yes, one firm per metro. We take on a small number of firms at a time, by application, and applications from Baltimore are read in the order they arrive.
Is this an answering service?
No. Your answering service stays as the fallback. We install a reply desk that answers web forms, chats and after-hours inquiries in about a minute and books qualified people with your intake team, plus approved follow-up drafts and a weekly scoreboard.
Does it replace our intake team?
No. It works for your intake team: it answers first, asks your written qualifying questions and books the person with your staff. A lawyer decides on representation.
Where does the data live?
In your firm's own accounts, behind your sign-in. We don't keep copies, and we never sell, share or route your leads.
