Do not infer authority to act.<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"say\">3.

What language or accessibility support would help?\u201d Capture each preference separately.<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"say\">4.

Record who is calling and whom they say needs help. Do not assume the caller has authority to act, is the prospective client, may receive information, or should attend a confidential consultation.<\/p>\n<p>The script should not ask the caller to diagnose another person\u2019s capacity or describe sensitive family conflict in detail. It may record that the caller expressed a concern and route it to the reviewed lawyer queue. Avoid labels such as \u201cincapacitated,\u201d \u201cundue influence,\u201d \u201cabusive,\u201d or \u201ccompetent\u201d unless clearly attributed as the caller\u2019s own words and necessary for routing.<\/p>\n<p>When multiple people expect to attend, capture names and relationships under the firm\u2019s reviewed process. Explain only the administrative policy approved for scheduling. A lawyer must decide client identity, joint representation, conflicts, confidentiality, separate consultations, capacity-related procedure, and participation.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"data\">First-Call Data-Minimization Checklist<\/h2>\n<p>ABA Model Rule 1.18 and its comments address prospective-client communications. Comment [4] advises limiting an initial consultation to information reasonably necessary for determining whether to undertake a matter. The firm must apply controlling jurisdiction-specific authority, but this is a useful design principle for the first call.<\/p>\n<div aria-label=\"Estate planning data minimization checklist\" class=\"table-wrap\" role=\"region\" tabindex=\"0\">\n<table>\n<caption>Collect now, defer, and reserve<\/caption>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Usually useful now<\/th>\n<th>Usually defer until approved lawyer process<\/th>\n<th>Never infer<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Name, relationship, safe contact, language, accessibility, broad service, state, participant names, broad timing, document categories<\/td>\n<td>Full asset inventory, exact values, account numbers, tax returns, medical records, diagnoses, detailed family conflict, beneficiary shares, passwords, full identifiers<\/td>\n<td>Capacity, undue influence, client identity, ownership, tax status, document validity, fiduciary duty, beneficiary rights, conflict clearance<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Caller-stated event and exact date<\/td>\n<td>Detailed legal analysis of why the event matters<\/td>\n<td>Deadline, urgency, enforceability, or legal consequence<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Existing-document category and where a copy exists<\/td>\n<td>Uploading the complete file before the secure, approved stage<\/td>\n<td>Content, effect, amendment, revocation, authenticity, or sufficiency<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>Each deferred field should have an owner and a later stage. Data minimization is not data loss; it is sequencing. The lawyer can request detailed information when the purpose, security, access, and legal context are clear.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"documents\">Record Documents and Dates Without Interpreting Them<\/h2>\n<p>Use document categories: will, trust, amendment, power of attorney, health-care document, deed, beneficiary designation, court paper, tax document, business agreement, or \u201ccaller unsure.\u201d Ask whether a copy exists and where it is held. Do not ask the caller to read sensitive provisions into an unsecured channel.<\/p>\n<p>A date should have a source label: printed on a document, appointment scheduled, travel date, surgery date, hearing date, sale or closing date, death date, or caller estimate. Repeat it back and store exact, approximate, unknown, or caller-unsure. Do not convert the date into a legal deadline or statement about validity or capacity.<\/p>\n<p>If the firm accepts files before consultation, specify the secure method, permitted types, size, malware screening, access, retention, deletion, and notification. Receipt is not review. The caller should not be told that a lawyer examined a document unless that actually occurred.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"booking\">Book the Right Consultation Without Promising Representation<\/h2>\n<p>Map consultation types by the firm\u2019s approved administrative categories. The booking rule may consider format, location, language, accessibility, participant count, existing-client status, matter category, attorney calendar, and fee. It should not use AI to decide legal merit, capacity, conflict clearance, or the plan the caller needs.<\/p>\n<p>Mark the action as requested, attempted, acknowledged, failed, or canceled. Confirm the time zone, format, address or approved meeting method, participants as stated, fee and payment logistics if approved, preparation instructions, rescheduling path, safe-contact choice, and the firm\u2019s engagement boundary.<\/p>\n<p>If no slot is available, use an owned review or callback queue and state the actual expectation. Do not invent a response time. If a calendar or record write fails, preserve the intake in a fallback and notify the responsible owner.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"handoff\">Create a Structured Estate Planning Handoff<\/h2>\n<div aria-label=\"Estate planning structured intake handoff\" class=\"table-wrap\" role=\"region\" tabindex=\"0\">\n<table>\n<caption>Review-ready fields<\/caption>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Group<\/th>\n<th>Fields<\/th>\n<th>Required state labels<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>People<\/td>\n<td>Caller name and relationship; person seeking help; expected participants; approved conflict names<\/td>\n<td>As stated \/ spelling confirmed \/ unknown \/ refused<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Contact<\/td>\n<td>Safe phone\/email, voicemail\/text preference, best time, language, accessibility<\/td>\n<td>Permitted \/ declined \/ unsafe \/ unavailable<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Request<\/td>\n<td>Caller\u2019s words, broad category, state, other location stated<\/td>\n<td>Complete \/ multiple \/ unsure \/ out-of-scope review<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Timing and documents<\/td>\n<td>Event, date, source, document categories, secure-transfer state<\/td>\n<td>Exact \/ approximate \/ unknown; available \/ not requested \/ received \/ not reviewed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Action<\/td>\n<td>Consultation type, booking ID, transfer result, task, fallback, owner, expectation<\/td>\n<td>Acknowledged \/ connected \/ assigned \/ failed \/ queued<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Reserved flags<\/td>\n<td>Caller expressed capacity, influence, safety, conflict, representation, advice, or urgency concern<\/td>\n<td>Caller-stated concern for lawyer review\u2014not an AI conclusion<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"exceptions\">Route Sensitive Exceptions Without Diagnosing Them<\/h2>\n<p>If a caller describes an immediate U.S. need for police, fire, or ambulance assistance, use the reviewed 911 boundary before continuing a long intake. For non-911 safety, health, exploitation, capacity, or time concerns, capture only the approved minimum and route to the designated lawyer or staff queue.<\/p>\n<p>Other exceptions include a third party who will not allow the person seeking help to speak, multiple family members with different instructions, an existing client, a caller asking whom the lawyer represents, a legal or tax question, a request to change a document immediately, a language change, an accessibility need, a failed booking, and an unavailable system. Each needs predetermined wording and ownership.<\/p>\n<p>Do not label a person vulnerable, incapacitated, coerced, conflicted, adverse, or legally urgent based on the receptionist\u2019s inference. A structured flag may say \u201ccaller stated concern about pressure from adult child\u201d or \u201ccaller requested appointment before surgery stated for November 18.\u201d Preserve attribution.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"testing\">Test the Workflow and Measure Administrative Quality<\/h2>\n<p>Test self-caller, spouse, adult child, caregiver, agent, professional referral, existing client, multiple participants, uncertain service request, multiple states, existing documents, caller-stated urgent date, capacity or influence concern, legal-advice request, accessibility need, language change, unsafe contact, full calendar, failed write, and human request.<\/p>\n<p>Review both the conversation and downstream record. Verify that no unnecessary sensitive detail was collected, caller relationships remained attributed, service categories did not become recommendations, dates kept source labels, bookings were acknowledged, and unresolved work has an owner.<\/p>\n<p>Measure required-field usability, explicit missing information, caller corrections, safe-contact capture, booking acknowledgment, transfer connection, task ownership, fallback completion, staff rework, duplicate records, complaints, and exception resolution. Do not score capacity, family credibility, wealth, legal fit, case value, tax outcomes, or likelihood of engagement.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"faq\">Estate Planning Intake Questions FAQs<\/h2>\n<div class=\"faq\">\n<h3>Should intake ask for a full list of assets?<\/h3>\n<p>Usually not at first contact unless the firm\u2019s lawyer has approved a clear need and secure process.
