Case Study: Real Estate & Business Law Firm

Transforming this Real Estate Law Firm’s Lead Management with HubSpot CRM

Expert law firm specializing in business, finance and real estate immigration services.

A renowned real estate and immigration law firm specializing in real estate, business and finance immigration services. With a mission to facilitate seamless business expansions and personal relocations, they assist corporations and individuals in navigating the complexities of immigration law. Operating in a competitive industry, Desjardins Lawyers relies heavily on Google Ads to generate a steady stream of leads through online inquiries.

Industry Roadblocks

In the fast-paced world of law, Lawyers face a unique set of challenges:

  • High Volume of Leads: Managing numerous inquiries efficiently without compromising on personalization.

  • Complex Client Journeys: Tracking clients through various stages of the immigration process requires meticulous attention.

  • Data Accuracy: Maintaining up-to-date and accurate client information is crucial for compliance and service delivery.

  • Time Management: Balancing administrative tasks with client-facing activities to optimize productivity

The Challenge

Despite their success in attracting potential clients, Desjardins Lawyers grappled with significant operational inefficiencies:

  • Inefficient Lead Follow-Up: Sales representatives were manually copying and pasting email templates from Google Docs for each lead, a process that consumed approximately 20% of their daily work hours.

  • Inaccurate Data Management: Relying on Excel spreadsheets with colour coding led to data inconsistencies. The team reported an error rate of 15%, resulting in missed follow-ups and lost opportunities.

  • Lack of Sales Pipeline Visibility: Without a systematic way to track sales progress or application statuses, the firm lacked insight into their sales funnel, affecting strategic decision-making.

  • Administrative Overload: The manual process of scanning form submissions and individually following up with prospects was overwhelming, leading to staff burnout and reduced focus on client engagement.
