Biometric Privacy Violation Client Intake Form

If you're an attorney or law firm specializing in privacy law, particularly biometric privacy violations under the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA) and similar statutes, this client intake form is designed to streamline your case evaluation process.

Why This Template Works for Privacy Attorneys

BIPA cases have exploded in recent years, with employers, retailers, and tech companies facing significant liability for collecting fingerprints, facial geometry, and other biometric identifiers without proper consent. Each violation can carry statutory damages of $1,000 to $5,000 per scan, making these cases potentially lucrative for both clients and firms pursuing class actions.

This template helps you capture all the critical details you need to assess case viability: the type of biometric data collected, whether proper written consent and data retention policies were provided, frequency of collection, and potential class size. The conditional logic reveals relevant follow-up questions based on violation type, ensuring you gather complete information without overwhelming clients with irrelevant fields.

Automate Your Intake Workflow with Stepper

Once a potential client submits this form, you can use Stepper to automatically route high-value cases to senior attorneys, send intake confirmations, create matters in your practice management software, and trigger conflict checks—all without manual data entry.

For cases requiring engagement agreements, Papersign lets you instantly convert the intake data into a retainer agreement and send it for electronic signature, keeping the entire onboarding process connected and compliant.

Built for Modern Legal Practices

This template is fully customizable through Paperform's document-style editor. You can add your firm's branding, adjust questions to match your specific practice focus, and embed the form directly on your website or share it as a standalone landing page. All submissions are encrypted and stored securely, with SOC 2 Type II compliance giving you and your clients peace of mind.

Whether you're building a BIPA practice, evaluating potential class actions, or simply modernizing your client intake process, this template gives you a professional, conversion-optimized starting point that actually looks like it belongs to your firm.
