The Submission Flow

How It Works

From a Google search to a qualified submission in your portal — here is the exact journey every prospect takes.

Step 01

Consumer Searches

Someone searches "bankruptcy attorney in [city]" on Google or asks an AI assistant. Our geographically optimized pages rank for these queries.

Step 02

They Find Your Profile

They land on a state, city, or attorney profile page. They read your credentials, practice areas, and client-focused content.

Step 03

They Submit a Case Inquiry

They fill out the contact form with their name, phone, email, case type, debt amount, and urgency level.

Step 04

You Receive It

The submission appears in your portal. Preview the case details for free — unlock full contact info with one credit when you're ready to call.

Submission Quality

What Makes a Qualified Submission

Every submission that reaches your portal has passed through a structured intake form designed to surface only serious, actionable prospects.

Verified Contact Information

Every submission provides a working phone number and email address. We validate format and flag disposable addresses before delivery.

Active Case Intent

Submissions come from people who self-identify as actively seeking legal representation — not just researching. They've selected a case type and described their situation.

Debt Amount Disclosed

Each submission discloses the consumer’s total debt load (under $50K, $50K–$150K, $150K–$500K, or $500K+), letting you prioritize higher-value cases.

Geographic Match

Submissions are matched to attorneys licensed in the same state. You only receive submissions from your service area — never out-of-jurisdiction inquiries.

Urgency Flagged

Submissions indicate urgency: immediate (facing garnishment or foreclosure), within 30 days, or planning ahead. Urgent submissions are flagged in your dashboard.

Duplicate Protection

Each submission is delivered to a maximum of three attorneys. Premium territory subscribers receive exclusive submissions — zero competition.

Our Standard

Only Case-Ready Submissions Reach Your Inbox

Most submission providers sell contact lists. We deliver vetted, intent-confirmed prospects who have already described their situation, disclosed their debt, and asked to speak with an attorney. Here is exactly how we ensure every submission is worth your time.

01Intent ConfirmationGate 1 of 5

The intake form opens with a single gating question: "Are you actively looking for a bankruptcy attorney?" Anyone who selects "just browsing" or "not sure" is redirected to educational content and never enters the submission pipeline.

Only active seekers enter the pipeline

Before collecting any contact information, every visitor must self-identify as actively looking for legal representation. This single gate eliminates the largest category of wasted submissions: curious visitors who are months away from filing.

Passes gate
  • Selected “Yes, I’m actively looking for an attorney”
  • Arrived from a bankruptcy-intent search query
  • Engaged with the intake form for at least 30 seconds
Filtered out
  • Selected “Just researching my options”
  • Selected “Not sure yet”
  • Bounced from the form without completing step 1
Example intake response
QuestionAre you actively looking for a bankruptcy attorney?
Response✅ Yes — I need to file soon
OutcomeProceeds to Gate 2
02Case-Type IdentificationGate 2 of 5

Prospects choose their bankruptcy chapter (7, 11, 12, or 13) or select debt relief or foreclosure defense. Vague or unclassifiable submissions are held for manual review before delivery.

Every submission arrives pre-classified by chapter

Prospects select their case type from a structured menu — not a free-text field. This ensures every submission you receive is already categorized so you can instantly assess fit against your practice focus.

Passes gate
  • Selected a specific chapter: 7, 11, 12, or 13
  • Selected “Debt settlement / negotiation”
  • Selected “Foreclosure defense”
Filtered out
  • Left case type blank
  • Selected “Not sure / other” without additional detail
  • Flagged for manual review — held until classified
Example intake response
Case type selectedChapter 7 — Liquidation
Additional noteFacing wage garnishment in 3 weeks
OutcomeClassified ✅ — Proceeds to Gate 3
03Debt DisclosureGate 3 of 5

Every submission discloses the consumer’s total debt load in one of four bands: under $50K, $50K–$150K, $150K–$500K, or $500K+. This lets you instantly prioritize higher-value cases and skip those outside your sweet spot.

Debt amount disclosed before you spend a credit

Consumers select their total unsecured debt from four standardized bands. You see this figure in your portal preview before unlocking the submission — so you can skip cases that fall below your minimum case value without spending a credit.

Passes gate
  • Disclosed debt band: under $50K
  • Disclosed debt band: $50K–$150K
  • Disclosed debt band: $150K–$500K
  • Disclosed debt band: $500K+
Filtered out
  • Skipped the debt disclosure question entirely
  • Entered “$0” or “None” (no qualifying debt)

04Contact VerificationGate 4 of 5

Phone numbers are validated against carrier lookup. Email addresses are checked for format, domain validity, and known disposable-address patterns. Submissions with undeliverable contact info are discarded before reaching your portal.

Every contact detail is validated before delivery

We run two automated checks on every submission: a carrier lookup on the phone number and a domain + disposable-address check on the email. Submissions that fail either check are discarded — never delivered to your portal.

Passes gate
  • Phone: active carrier lookup returns a valid mobile or landline
  • Email: domain exists, MX records valid, not a known disposable provider
  • Both fields present and non-empty
Filtered out
  • Phone: disconnected, invalid format, or VOIP-only number
  • Email: disposable domain (e.g. mailinator.com, guerrillamail.com)
  • Email: domain has no MX records

OutcomeBoth checks passed — Proceeds to Gate 5
05Geographic & License MatchGate 5 of 5 — Submission Delivered

The prospect’s stated location is matched against your licensed states. You will never receive a submission from a jurisdiction where you are not licensed to practice.

Zero out-of-jurisdiction submissions — guaranteed

The prospect’s city and state are matched against the licensed states on your verified attorney profile. If there is no match, the submission is routed to a different attorney in that jurisdiction. You only ever see submissions from states where you are licensed.

Passes gate
  • Prospect’s state matches at least one of your licensed states
  • City is within your defined service radius (if set)
  • Submission has not already been delivered to 3 other attorneys
Filtered out
  • Prospect’s state is not in your licensed states list
  • Submission has already reached the 3-attorney delivery cap
  • Territory is claimed exclusively by another subscriber
