Legal Intake BPO
"These are the strongest results we have ever achieved. Clearing a backlog of this size simply would not have been possible without Amalga's guidance."

20+ Agents
A U.S. legal services provider was operating with a 100-day intake backlog. New case inquiries were stacking up faster than in-house teams could process them. By the time intake agents reached a claimant, response windows had closed, documentation had gone cold, and potential cases were walking out the door.
The root problem was structural. Intake volume had outgrown the team's capacity, and the existing vendor could not scale without introducing agents who lacked the legal domain knowledge and bilingual proficiency the client's caseload required. Quality and throughput were both deteriorating at the same time.

Intake Team Deployment
Amalga deployed a dedicated legal intake team with agents trained in case intake protocols, legal terminology, and bilingual (EN/ES) client communication. The team was integrated directly into the client's case management system and intake workflows from day one.
AI-Human Case Distribution Layer
Amalga implemented an AI-assisted routing engine that dynamically assigns cases based on case type and complexity, agent specialization and tenure, historical performance metrics, and real-time queue and backlog conditions. Routing decisions were recalculated continuously, ensuring optimal case distribution and eliminating idle time.
Backlog Reduction Sprint (Month 3)
Amalga ran a structured backlog reduction sprint, systematically working through the 100-day queue while simultaneously handling new intake volume. Dedicated capacity was split between legacy backlog and incoming cases to prevent the backlog from growing while it was being cleared.
Quality and Compliance Framework
Amalga implemented intake quality monitoring and weekly performance calibration tied directly to completion rates, accuracy scores, and intake-to-case conversion. Every agent session was reviewed against legal intake standards and client-specific protocols.
Steady-State Operations and Scale
With the backlog cleared to under 10 days and intake completion above 91%, Amalga transitioned to steady-state operations. The team expanded bilingual intake coverage, standardized the AI-assisted triage model across all case types, and embedded the QA and compliance frameworks as permanent operational standards to sustain sub-10-day backlog performance.
