IS THIS FOR YOU?
If you're using tools like Lawmatics, Dubsado, Clio, or MyCase to streamline your practice — this template helps you build the SOPs that make those automations actually work.
You use a CRM or legal practice management tool and want your SOPs to match your automation triggers
You're tired of undocumented workflows that only work because you're manually holding them together
You want to clearly map what's manual vs. what's automated in your trademark process
You're building toward a more systemized, delegation-ready practice
WHAT IS A TRIGGER-READY SOP?
A cause-and-effect system.
A Trigger-Ready SOP is built around what actually causes a task to happen, the trigger. Not just a list of steps, but a clear map of: what kicked this off, who handles it, and what happens next.
This format works whether you're running manual processes, automated workflows, or a mix of both, which is exactly how most trademark practices actually run.
