Intake without the phone tag
Let prospective clients book paid consultations online, answer intake questions before they arrive, and pay at booking so your time is never unpaid.
Law firms and solo practitioners lose billable time to intake coordination: the phone call to schedule the consultation, the follow-up to collect payment, and the no-show that erases the slot. Ordinus moves all of that online so the consultation starts with a prepared, paid client.
The scheduling problem
Phone-based intake slowing everything down
Every prospective client call to schedule a consultation takes staff time and delays the actual meeting. Online booking eliminates that step.
Unpaid consultations creating billing awkwardness
Collecting a fee after the consultation adds friction and opens the door to disputes. Payment at booking closes that gap cleanly.
No-shows on valuable consultation slots
A missed paid consultation is lost billable time that could have gone to another client. Reminders and a deposit at booking reduce that risk.
Intake information missing when the meeting starts
When clients arrive without having shared case details in advance, the first portion of a paid consultation is wasted on context-setting.
What Ordinus gives you
Intake questions before booking confirms
Collect matter type, a brief description, and any other relevant details as part of the booking flow so the attorney arrives prepared.
Paid consultations at booking
Require full payment or a deposit when the client books so every consultation slot is financially committed before it is reserved.
Automatic appointment reminders
Confirmation and reminder emails go out automatically with a reschedule link so clients show up on time and no-shows drop.
Ownership-safe calendar sync
Ordinus reads your calendar for true availability and only manages the consultations it creates, so existing entries and client matters are untouched.
How it works
- 1Set up your consultation types. Create booking types for each consultation category with duration, price, and the intake questions you need answered before the meeting.
- 2Clients book and pay online. Prospective clients visit your booking page, answer your intake questions, select a slot, and pay, all without a phone call.
- 3Arrive prepared, not catching up. You receive the intake answers in the confirmation so the consultation starts on the substance, not on collecting basic facts.
Why Ordinus
- Intake questions are part of the booking flow, not a separate form sent afterward.
- Payment at booking means every confirmed slot is a paid slot.
- Calendar sync is ownership-safe so client matter entries are never overwritten.
Frequently asked questions
Can we ask different intake questions for different consultation types?
Yes. Each booking type has its own set of intake questions so a contract review consultation collects different information than a dispute intake.
How does payment at booking work?
You connect a payment provider and set the required amount per consultation type. Clients pay when they book and the slot is not confirmed until payment clears.
Will it interfere with our existing calendar system?
No. Ordinus reads your connected calendar for busy times and only creates or updates the consultations it schedules, leaving all other entries intact.
Do clients get a reminder before the consultation?
Yes. Ordinus sends confirmation and reminder emails automatically, each with a reschedule link if the client needs to move the appointment.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Start free and upgrade when you want to accept payments or increase your consultation volume.
