Overview
If you are acquiring cases through Lexamica here's what you need to do to be fully integrated:

Automatically create cases in your CRM
Log contact attempts to potential clients
Integrate back case acceptances
Decline case
Report case resolution
Note on Terminology
For the purposes of this article, we use the acronym CRM (customer relationship management) to refer to your intake system. This could be Lead Docket, SmartAdvocate, Filevine, Litify, Salesforce, Hubspot, MyCase, CasePeer or anything else that Zapier integrates with.
1. Set up Lexamica account
The first step is to ensure you have access to a Lexamica user account. If you or someone within your organization does not have an account, please reach out to [email protected] for assistance.
In order to complete this setup, you will need to log in to your Lexamica account when prompted in Zapier.
2. Create referral in CRM
Trigger: New referral received in Lexamica
Action: Create record in your CRM
Use the available Lexamica fields to create the record
Save the Lexamica record ID (Data ID) to a dedicated field so that you can create the following Zaps.
Pro tip: you can create a URL field in your CRM that direct links to the Lexamica record with the following structure: https://acquire.lexamica.com/cases/Data_ID_FROM_TRIGGER (Data_ID_FROM_TRIGGER is the Lexamica Record ID and doesn't change over time.)
Action: update referral in Lexamica
ID from prior step
Stage: Eval - pending
3. Log contact attempts to potential clients
Trigger: contact attempt logged in your CRM/intake system (yes, this should trigger multiple times. We want you to report every single contact attempt/completion in Lexamica as it creates a HUGE amount of trust with the originating firm).
Action: update referral in Lexamica
4. Report case acceptances
Trigger: event in your CRM/intake system that indicates that you have signed the client
Action: Respond to Referral Invitation (Lexamica)
Set to accepted
5. Decline case
Trigger: event in your CRM/intake system that indicates that you have declined the case
Action: Respond to Referral Invitation (Lexamica)
Set to declined
Add decline reason
It's fine to use a single generic reason here if your CRM doesn't already request a decline reason (although we'd recommend you do that for your own tracking purposes!)
6. Report case resolution
Unfortunately, this feature is not supported at this time. You can simply visit acquire.lexamica.com and enter the resolution information on the case.
