Family Law Intake Form Template
This form collects relationship, children, property, and safety details from people seeking help with divorce, custody, or support. Family law attorneys use it to understand a potential client’s situation.
When to use it
- Before an initial divorce consultation
- When a client asks about custody or parenting arrangements
- For a support-related inquiry
- When safety concerns may affect contact or next steps
What it asks
- What is your name?
- What is your email address?
- What is your phone number?
- What do you need help with?
- What is your spouse’s or former partner’s name?
- When did you get married?
- Tell us about your children together, if any.
- What are the main issues you’d like help with?
- What assets or property should we know about?
- Are there safety concerns affecting you or your children?
- Is there anything else we should know about safety or contacting you?
Why it should be encrypted
Answers may include private details about children, finances, relationships, and safety. They should be limited to the attorney and authorized intake staff—not SealForm or anyone else without permission.
Tips
- Let people know who will review their answers and how they can contact you safely.
- Customize the issue and property questions to match the matters your practice handles.
- Ask only for details needed before the first conversation.
