What is included on opening day

01

Client acquisition

A firm website, public answers, technical SEO, and a direct path to consultation.

02

Inquiry and consultation

Guided intake, consultation booking, and a client roadmap replace the generic contact form.

03

Client preparation

Ready checks what the client sends, requests exact corrections, follows up, and stops when the file needs your judgment.

04

Case management

PracticeOS keeps facts, files, dates, billing, next work, and your review decisions on one connected client record.

05

Revenue and operations

Track which client paths created business, which opportunities resumed, and which administrative work was removed.

First-client campaigns

DocketBuddy Opportunity Campaigns turn a specific, documented opening into attorney-approved outreach and a short client path. Your site and intake are already waiting when someone responds.

Explore Opportunity Campaigns

Example campaign file

A first-client path built around one real opportunity

Find the opening

Research search demand, public legal events, local questions, or another documented signal relevant to your practice.

Approve the campaign

You review the audience, sources, claims, outreach language, service capacity, and professional-responsibility boundary.

Give the response somewhere useful to go

A branded page explains the issue, asks only the necessary questions, and moves the right person toward a consultation.

Connect the result to the practice

See the response, consultation, retained matter, and collected result beside the campaign that created it.

Campaign scope is reviewed before launch. No list is contacted and no message is sent merely because a public signal exists.

WORKFLOW RESULTS

Measure the result of each workflow

DocketBuddy connects client acquisition, revenue, and time saved to the workflow that produced the result.

Business won

Inquiries that become consultations and cases

Connect page visits, completed intake, consultation requests, and retained work.

Inquiry → consultation → matter

Revenue protected

Stalled work and open billing opportunities

Keep incomplete intake, unanswered requests, open billing opportunities, and cases without a next action visible.

Opportunity → action → collected result

Capacity returned

Administrative work handled without attorney time

Track document checks, client follow-ups, correction cycles, and routine case work handled by the system.

Work performed → time avoided → exception reviewed

New Solo setup service

The New Solo program is a launch service around the same DocketBuddy products. We configure the practice, rehearse it, and stay with you through the first real handoff.

Before the doors open

Build the firm around the practice you chose

We set the domain, site, client path, consultation handoff, matter workspace, and first operating rules with you.

Before a real client

Rehearse the whole path with a synthetic matter

Walk from inquiry to intake, document correction, matter review, billing, and client communication without using client data.

Opening week

Launch a first-client campaign with a measurable destination

Choose a search, local education, or researched opportunity lane. Every response enters a path you can inspect and improve.

First live matter

Run the first client together

We stay close enough to catch the awkward handoffs and turn your preferred way of working into the default for the next matter.

FIRM HOSTED

Website and DocketBuddy setup for a new firm
