Intake is the starting point of the legal service process, referring to the stage where business departments submit a consultation or engagement request to legal.
Traditional corporate legal intake usually takes the form of emails, tickets, or verbal requests, with common problems including incomplete information, duplicate inquiries, and routing errors.
Opening legal knowledge to business departments carries the risk of misinterpretation, so redesigning the intake stage must include boundary design that specifies which questions the system can answer directly and which must be escalated to a human.
One of the reusable ideas suggested by the AT&T case is: starting from the intake rather than the endpoint of the legal process offers the greatest leverage with controllable risk.
