Alert Communications signs the retainer. Your ads never hear about it.
Alert's team answers within three rings, screens the case, books the consult and sends the retainer, then drops the intake into Clio Grow, Filevine, Lead Docket or CASEpeer. Google Ads and Meta only saw a call, so a signed injury case and a wrong number look alike. We tag every ad call before it forwards to Alert and send signed retainers back to the ads.

Alert Communications · what breaks
What goes wrong when Alert Communications runs your intake
- 01
"Alert signed a handful of cases. Google Ads says we got dozens of calls."
Google counts any ad call that runs past the minimum length you set. Alert's practice-area screening turns away existing clients, wrong numbers and matters you don't take, but Google already counted them, and each one trains bidding to buy more of the same.
- 02
"The intake in Filevine doesn't say which campaign it came from"
Alert pushes intake details, transcripts and signed agreements into your case management system, but none of its pages mention a source or click ID field. A workers' comp retainer can't be traced to its keyword.
- 03
"Retainers get signed days later and nobody connects them"
Alert sends the retainer within minutes and then chases unsigned agreements by call, text and email. When the signature lands on day four, nothing reports it to the ad that started it.
- 04
"Alert's tort report and Meta's numbers never agree"
Alert screens tort claimants against case criteria and reports qualification rates by channel. Meta never sees that report, so it keeps buying claimants who fail screening while your cost per signed case climbs.
Alert Communications · the fix
What changes after we fix it — Alert Communications
Only intakes Alert qualified count as leads
The lead conversion fires from the screening result Alert records in your CRM, once we confirm which field holds it, so existing clients and declined matters stop training Google Ads.
Every signed retainer carries its ad
The caller's number is joined to the tracked call holding the click ID, so a signed med mal case in Clio Grow shows its campaign.
Signed cases train bidding, even when they sign late
When the agreement shows signed in your CRM, we send it to Google Ads and Meta, with case facts kept out.
Alert Communications · architecture
What Alert Communications actually gives you to hook into
Alert is a staffed intake operation, not an analytics tool. Here is what its own service pages document, and what they leave out.
- 1
Phone answering with warm transfers
24/7, no voicemail, warm transfers to an attorney with context. Forwarding isn't documented, so we confirm how calls reach Alert.
- 2
CRM and case management delivery
Intakes go to Clio Grow, Filevine, Lead Docket or CASEpeer; tort intake also names Litify, Law Ruler and Salesforce. We check which fields each sync carries.
- 3
Live chat and text transcripts
Transcripts and mapped fields go to Clio or Filevine. No chat vendor or analytics option is documented.
- 4
E-signature retainers
DocuSign or Adobe Sign, with signed status sent to Clio, MyCase or Lawmatics. That status is where our signed event fires.
- 5
Voice + AI intake
AI-only or hybrid; qualified calls go to live specialists. Clio, Filevine and PracticePanther named.
- 6
No Google Ads, GA4, Meta, call tracking or webhook connection documented
Outcomes go back from your CRM through a first-party container instead.
Alert Communications · diagnose
Where Alert Communications tracking breaks, in diagnostic order
Start at the phone line. If your published number forwards straight to Alert, the ad source is gone before anyone says hello.
- 01
Find out what number the ad shows
A number forwarded straight to Alert records no click ID.
- 02
Check what Google counts as a call conversion
A length threshold counts existing clients as new cases.
- 03
Open one Alert intake record in your CRM
Look for a source or click ID field. If there isn't one, no signed case can be traced to an ad.
- 04
Compare signed retainers with reported conversions
Case by case, including late signers.
- 05
Separate chat, text and phone intakes
Without a channel label, the budget split is guesswork.

Alert Communications · when not to buy
When you don't need this with Alert Communications
Some firms using Alert should keep their money.
- If your cases come from referrals and you run no paid ads, Alert's records already tell you enough.
- If you only run Local Services Ads, you pay per lead and Google issues lead credits inside LSA, so its own reporting is where to start.
- If Alert only takes after-hours overflow, fix tracking on your own phone first.
- If a mass tort vendor sells you pre-qualified leads, there is no ad click of yours to match, so attribution adds little.
Alert Communications · what we deliver
The event map on Alert Communications
Call to the tracked ad number
Logged by call tracking before your line forwards to Alert, with click ID, campaign and keyword.
Live chat or text started
Captured only if Alert's encrypted chat exposes an event your site can read, which we confirm first. Diagnostic only, never a bidding target.
Intake qualified
Set from Alert's screening result: practice area, conflict check, filing deadline and facts fit. Existing clients, wrong numbers and declined matters excluded.
Consultation booked
Including consults Alert's specialists or Voice + AI put on your attorneys' calendar.
Retainer signed
The bidding target, sent server-side when the DocuSign or Adobe Sign status reaches your CRM, valued at an agreed case value.
Retainer abandoned or case rejected
Kept out of the conversion count, so an unsigned agreement after Alert's follow-up never inflates reported cases.
Written guarantee
95%+ tracking accuracy
Measured against Your Alert Communications intake records and signed retainers in your CRM, by date, practice area and agreement status. Miss it and we keep working at no cost.

FAQ
Alert Communications questions, answered
Not that its pages document. Alert delivers intakes and signed agreements to your CRM, and we send conversions to the ad platforms from there.
Yes, if call tracking sits in front of the forward. The tracked number records the click, then rings through to Alert as before.
No. Scripts, warm transfers and retainer follow-up stay as they are. We only read the outcome Alert writes to your CRM.
The intake record carries the source from the first call. When the signed status reaches your CRM, we send the event matched to that click.
We don't send case facts. Only hashed contact details, the click ID, the conversion name and a value leave your system.
No. AI-screened calls still produce an intake record, and that record is what we track.
