The 3-Minute Rule: Retain, Refer, or Reject—Legal Intake [008]
When a claimant calls your firm, they’ve given you a window—3 minutes or less to show them whether you’re interested.
In this episode, Gary Falkowitz shares the hard truth:
Your intake team must communicate intent within 3 minutes, or risk losing the client for good.
You’ll learn:
🔵 What the “3 R’s” are and how to use them effectively
🔵 The costly mistake of over-questioning and under-committing
🔵 Why “review” is the intake code for “you should probably hire someone else”
🔵 How to train your team to decide with clarity and confidence
Biggest Insight:
If you can’t communicate intent in 3 minutes, your team isn’t trained to win.
