You do not need the legal words. Start with what happened.
Sofia is Best Tort Lawyers' AI intake guide. Tell her what happened in your own words. She helps organize the basics, identify the type of claim or legal team that may fit, and move you toward the appropriate next step.
What happened to you?
You do not need to know the claim name. These are simply starting points so Sofia can ask the right next questions.
A cleaner first step before you start calling firms.
BTL is a matching and intake service. It does not give legal advice and does not decide whether a lawyer will accept a matter.
Tell Sofia what happened.
Use your own words. She gathers the basics and helps organize the situation.
Identify the likely lane.
The intake helps determine what type of claim or legal team may be relevant and whether the situation may potentially qualify for further review.
Move to the next review step.
If appropriate, the inquiry can be routed toward an independent law firm for its own evaluation. Representation is never guaranteed.
You can be unsure and still start.
A lot of people arrive knowing something serious happened but not knowing whether it is legally relevant, what kind of lawyer handles it, or what to call it. That uncertainty is exactly what the intake is designed to reduce.
