§ Lead Counsel

Lead triage for Australian law practices

Every lead, judged in milliseconds.

Lead Counsel reads each LawConnect lead the moment it arrives, judges it against rules you write in plain English, and puts the work you want in front of you. The rest wait quietly, one tap away.

14-day free trial. No card needed. Your data stays in Australia.

How it works

Forward once. Then only see the leads worth your time.

1

Forward LawConnect's emails

Your practice gets its own Lead Counsel address. One rule in Gmail or Outlook sends LawConnect's emails to it. Nothing else in your inbox comes our way.

2

Every lead is judged on arrival

Your area, your postcodes, your price limits and your own sentences, checked in well under a second. Each lead gets a fit from 0 to 100% and a reason you can read.

3

You hear about the good ones

Strong leads are texted or emailed to you straight away, ready to claim. Poor fits are put aside without bothering you. The ones in between wait for your decision.

The rules

Brief it like a junior.

Tick the areas of law you take. Choose where your clients are. Then write the exceptions as you would say them to a colleague.

For every sentence, Lead Counsel shows you the question it will ask of each lead and the answer that counts as a fit, so you can see it has understood before a single lead depends on it.

Try any lead against your rules as you write them. Before a change goes live, see which of your recent leads would land somewhere different, and why.

We don't act in disputes between beneficiaries unless we act for the executor.
Asks of every lead: Is this a dispute between beneficiaries where the client is not the executor? A fit when the answer is no
We prefer clients who can sign in person or by video.
Asks of every lead: Can the client sign documents in person or by video? A fit when the answer is yes
Small estates under $100,000 are rarely worth it.
Worth a look: lead summaries seldom state what an estate is worth, so this rule will often be unsure.

Trust

You stay in charge of every lead.

Every outcome explained

Each lead shows every rule, its answer and the sentence of yours behind it. When the rules get one wrong, "Change this rule" is right there.

Off until you say so

Lead Counsel recommends until you choose to let it accept the strongest leads for you, and it never goes past your price limits. Any automatic decision can be reversed.

Measured against you

Insights shows how often the rules agreed with your own decisions, and lists every lead where they did not. You turn on automatic acceptance when that number earns it.

Your data in Australia

Leads, rules and history are stored in Sydney. Client contact details are encrypted and play no part in how a lead is judged. How we handle data.

Questions

What practitioners ask first

Do I have to change how I use LawConnect?

No. You add one forwarding rule in Gmail or Outlook so LawConnect's emails also reach your Lead Counsel address. You still accept leads in LawConnect, usually with one tap on the link Lead Counsel sends you.

Will it accept leads and spend my credits without asking?

Not unless you switch that on. A new practice starts in recommend-only mode: strong leads are texted to you to decide. Once the rules agree with your own decisions, you can let Lead Counsel take the strongest leads for you, within the price limits you set. You can reverse any of them.

How do I write the rules?

Tick the areas of law you take, choose where you take clients from, and add any exceptions as plain sentences, such as "We don't act where court proceedings have already started." Lead Counsel shows you the question it will ask of every lead for each sentence, and lets you try any lead against your rules before you save them.

What does it see, and where is it kept?

It sees what LawConnect emails you: the matter summary, the suburb and the price. Client contact details only appear after you accept, and are encrypted at rest. Everything is stored in Sydney. Matter summaries are sent to our AI providers to answer your rules; names, phone numbers and email addresses are not part of that. The trust page has the detail.

Does it work with sources other than LawConnect?

LawConnect is the first. The Practice plan includes a Lead API, so your website's enquiry form or another lead service can send leads to the same rules. Tell us which source you want next.

What happens when the trial ends?

Choose a plan and nothing changes. If you don't, leads keep arriving and waiting for you, unscreened, until you do. We never delete your rules or leads because a trial ended.

Join the beta.

We are inviting a small group of practices that buy LawConnect leads. Tell us about yours and we will be in touch.
