For Employment Law Firms

Filter the noise. Sign the real cases.

Employment law leads often don't have a case — or do but don't know it. GavelGrow's intake flows pre-qualify leads on statute-of-limitations, damages, and evidence before they take up attorney time.

Screening is the practice — triage decides margin
Modelled cost per signed case $400–$1,500

Most inquiries screen out. The economics live in triaging fast enough to find the one viable case without burning attorney hours on the other forty-nine calls.

Where employment law cases are lost

The case is decided at intake, not in the ads.

Every practice loses cases the same way — between the click and the conversation. Here is how that moment actually goes in employment law, and what the system does about it.

  1. The moment

    They just left the meeting where it happened — fired, demoted, or asked to sign something. Half of today's callers have no case. One of them has a very good one.

  2. The window

    The viable case is deciding between firms while your attorneys are stuck screening the other calls.

  3. The play

    Pre-qualification intake asks the screening questions before a human picks up, case-type segmentation routes the viable inquiry to the right attorney, and the statute clock is captured at intake — not discovered later.

The record of what breaks

Three ways employment law firms bleed cases.

01

Every consultation is a qualification call

Attorneys spend 30 minutes finding out a lead is outside SOL or has no real damages. That's time that should be spent on cases that will actually sign.

02

Weak cases clog the pipeline

Without upfront qualification, your pipeline fills with cases that won't retain. Your signed-rate looks bad even when your case-quality rate is good.

03

Statute of limitations pressure

Employment discrimination has tight SOLs. A lead who calls 2 days before the deadline needs to be triaged instantly — not added to tomorrow's callback list.

Tuned to the practice

What the system runs for employment law firms.

The same spine every page on this site describes — click to signed case — with the pieces that matter most in employment law doing the heavy lifting.

Pre-qualification intake

Intake asks about incident date, employer size, evidence, prior EEOC filings. Leads outside SOL or clearly below damages threshold get an auto-response and aren't routed to attorneys.

SOL countdown flags

Every qualified lead shows days-remaining until statute-of-limitations. Urgent flags prioritize same-day callbacks for leads within 30 days of deadline.

Case-type segmentation

Wrongful termination, discrimination, wage-and-hour, and retaliation each get their own intake template and routing rules. Track ROI per case type.

Referral-ready lead routing

Leads outside your practice area (or in a venue you don't cover) can be referred out with one click. Track referral-out revenue separately.

Against firms like yours

Good numbers are relative.

Benchmarked against plaintiff-side employment firms screening high inquiry volume — the cohort where triage speed sets the margin.

The platform's benchmarks are modelled for your practice area and market size — labeled as modelled, never passed off as measured — so a employment law firm is judged against its own economics, not against the whole profession's average.

Before you ask

Employment Law questions, answered.

The questions employment law firms ask on the first call — answered here so the call can be about your firm.

How does pre-qualification work?

Intake forms ask about incident date, employer size, type of claim, and evidence. Logic rules route the lead: clear case → flagged for priority attorney callback, marginal case → paralegal review, non-viable → polite auto-response + referral resource list.

Can you handle class action intake?

Yes. Separate intake flows for class action plaintiffs include employer name, approximate class size, and witness availability. Dashboard segments class actions from individual matters for separate case-pipeline views.

Does this integrate with EEOC / agency filings?

Not directly — EEOC filings remain manual. But all intake data flows into the case record, making it easy for paralegals to copy into EEOC charge forms. Deeper agency integrations are something we're exploring.

Can we track contingent fee expected value?

Yes. Each case can carry an expected settlement value. Dashboard shows expected portfolio value, weighted probability of success (manually set), and realized value from closed matters. ROI calculations use realized values.
