### Artículo 2: Automating Document Creation with Google Docs

**Description:** Streamline your document drafting process by automatically generating contracts and letters using Prima.Law data.

Manually typing client data into retainers or government forms is time-consuming. By integrating Prima.Law with Google Docs, you can generate ready-to-print documents populated with your client’s specific information.

#### Common Workflows

-   **Automatic Retainer Agreements:** Generate a full contract in Google Docs as soon as a Lead is converted into a Client.
-   **Personalized Cover Letters:** Create a standardized cover letter for USCIS or other agencies using the case details stored in Prima.Law.
-   **Folder Organization:** Automatically create a new Google Drive folder for every new case opened in Prima.Law.

#### Key Steps to Configure

1.  **Preparation:** Create a Google Doc template with "Merge Tags" in double brackets, like `{{Client_Name}}` or `{{Case_Number}}`.
2.  **Trigger:** Set the trigger in Zapier to "New Case" or "Updated Case Status" in Prima.Law.
3.  **Action:** Select Google Docs and the action "Create Document from Template."
4.  **Mapping:** Match the fields from Prima.Law (e.g., First Name) to the corresponding merge tags in your Google Doc.

### Artículo 3: Syncing Web Forms (Intake) to Prima.Law

**Description:** Automatically capture leads from your website or social media and import them directly into Prima.Law.

#### Introduction

The first step of any legal case is the intake. Instead of manually entering data from website inquiries, you can use Zapier to "push" information from apps like **Typeform, JotForm, or WPForms** directly into your Prima.Law Lead dashboard.

#### Common Workflows

-   **Website Lead Capture:** Every time someone fills out your "Contact Us" form, a new Lead profile is created in Prima.Law.
-   **Qualification Filtering:** Only sync leads to Prima.Law if they select a specific practice area (e.g., "Immigration") in your form.
-   **Instant Task Assignment:** Create a follow-up task for your receptionist in Prima.Law as soon as a new form submission is received.

#### Key Steps to Configure

1.  **Trigger:** Select your form app (e.g., Typeform) and the trigger "New Entry."
2.  **Action:** Select Prima.Law and the action "Create Lead."
3.  **Mapping:** Carefully map the form fields (Phone, Email, Case Description) to the matching fields in the Prima.Law lead profile.
4.  **Verification:** Check your "Leads" section in Prima.Law to ensure the data is appearing in the correct columns.
