Capture practice area and jurisdiction
Required: practice area (PI / family / criminal / business / estate / IP), jurisdiction (state, sometimes county), brief description of the matter, urgency.
Form template · Lawyer / case inquiry
Lawyer contact forms run case intake — practice area, case description, jurisdiction, urgency. Three minutes of intake by form saves a 30-minute conflict-check call.
This template is one of our free HTML form templates. See more form templates by industry.
Every template is free and fully editable in the drag-drop builder — swap fields, colors, and the button label before you publish.
No server, API route, or SDK — your Lawyer Contact Form posts straight to one endpoint.
Every submission is emailed to you and saved to a searchable dashboard — spam filtered before it reaches you.
It's plain HTML you own — paste the Lawyer Contact Form snippet, swap in your access key, and ship.
Copy and ship
HTML by default — the same field set also renders as React, Next.js, PHP, and cURL in your dashboard. Every variant posts to the same /api/submit endpoint. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your dashboard; that's the only edit.

<script src="https://splitforms.com/embed.js" async></script>How to add it
To add a Lawyer Contact Form to your site you need three things: a free splitforms access key, the HTML snippet above, and your key pasted into it. No backend, database, or CAPTCHA library — the form posts to one URL and every submission lands in your inbox and dashboard.
Required: practice area (PI / family / criminal / business / estate / IP), jurisdiction (state, sometimes county), brief description of the matter, urgency.
Webhook the lead's name and opposing party (if known) to your conflict-check system or paralegal. Cleared leads schedule the consultation; conflicts get a referral letter.
Cleared leads get a Cal.com / Calendly link with a Stripe pre-pay for the consultation fee. Non-paying consults are an old model; modern firms charge $75-300 for the initial call.
What's included
Law firm intake is bottlenecked on conflict checks and practice-area mismatch. A PI firm that takes a family-law lead wastes everyone's time; a family-law firm that misses an urgent restraining-order case loses a client and possibly a person's safety. The form sorts on practice area, urgency, and a brief description — the intake paralegal can run a conflict check before the consultation call. Most firms charge for consultations now; the form lets non-conflicted, on-topic leads book and pay before the lawyer's calendar gets touched. Webhooks into Clio / MyCase / PracticePanther for conflict check + intake.

Where submissions go
Reply-to is wired to the visitor's email, so one tap on Reply answers them directly — while the built-in honeypot and automatic spam scoring filter out bots before they reach you. Every submission is emailed to your inbox and can forward to a webhook or Slack the moment a visitor hits send.

How SplitForms works
splitforms receives the submission, filters spam, saves it to your dashboard and emails you — then, on paid plans, sends it on to your webhooks and integrations. No backend infrastructure to build.

Point your form to your unique SplitForms endpoint. That's it.

We instantly capture and organize every submission in your inbox.

Send data to email, spreadsheets, CRMs, webhooks, and 7,000+ apps.

No credit card required. Set up in under 60 seconds.
Connect & automate
On paid plans, submissions can also go to Slack, Discord, Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, Zapier or any signed webhook — and splitforms works on the platforms you build on, from WordPress and Shopify to Next.js. With Stripe connected, your forms can take payments too.

Questions
Strictly speaking, the privilege attaches when the attorney-client relationship forms — the form submission is pre-relationship, so it's confidential by professional duty but not yet privileged. Most firms include disclaimer language: 'submitting this form does not create an attorney-client relationship.' Standard practice.
Capture opposing party name on the form. Webhook to your conflict-check system. Cleared leads proceed; conflicts get a courteous referral. Skipping this step is a malpractice risk.
Yes — webhook the JSON to Zapier and into your practice management software. Lead lands as a prospect or matter, with intake data pre-filled.
Depends on practice area. PI firms still do free consults (contingency model). Family / business / estate increasingly charge $100-300 for the first consult — filters out tire-kickers and respects the lawyer's time. The form can route to a Stripe pre-pay link automatically.
