How We Helped a Legal Firm Save Hours by Connecting Calls to Their CRM

Client Overview

Our client is a legal firm that deals with a high volume of daily calls. They used Lead Docket to track leads and manage follow-ups, and 3CX as their phone system. But these tools weren’t connected. That meant their team had to copy information manually, upload call recordings by hand, and deal with delays or errors that slowed them down.

They wanted a way to connect both tools, fix the recording issues, and reduce the manual work.

Challenges

No Connection Between Tools

3CX and Lead Docket weren’t working together smoothly. Every new lead had to be entered manually, and team members had to track recordings by hand.

Recordings Didn’t Work

3CX recordings weren’t compatible with Lead Docket. This meant someone had to convert and upload files one by one.

Timeout Errors and Queue Issues

Uploads failed often because of timeout problems. Additionally, all calls, including those that were incorrect, were sent to Lead Docket, which created confusion.

“We were wasting time chasing down recordings and fixing lead details—it just wasn’t working.”

Here’s How We Helped

Custom Scripts and Middleware

We developed scripts that acted as a bridge between 3CX and Lead Docket. These scripts ensured data flowed smoothly and was accurately processed. Using Creomate, we configured webhooks to enable reliable communication between the systems, allowing automated lead creation and updates.

Queue-Based Filtering

We implemented a custom filtering solution to fix the mixed call queues. We made sure that only calls routed through Queue 82 were sent to Lead Docket. Our filtering approach used user-defined conditions to accurately separate and manage relevant calls, preventing errors in lead assignment.

We addressed the recording format issue by creating an automated pipeline to convert Base64 recordings into MP3 files. This system ensured that every recording met the technical requirements of the Lead Docket without requiring manual intervention. This saved significant time and reduced the chances of errors.

System Testing and Documentation

After implementing the solutions, we thoroughly tested the system to confirm that all components worked seamlessly. We also provided the client with detailed documentation so their team could easily manage the new setup and make future adjustments.
