Spanish-Language Client Intake Skill for Law Firms

A Spanish-speaking caller leaves a voicemail, and it sits in your inbox until someone bilingual has a free hour. Give this skill the transcript or your intake notes and it returns an English summary structured for the file. Give it an English update and it returns natural Spanish, flagging anything ambiguous instead of guessing. Every output is a draft you review. Free, yours to keep.

Spanish intake notes summarized in English for the file

How it works

  1. Download and install the plugin — Download the plugin and add it to Claude Desktop's Extensions panel to install it.
  2. Bring the Spanish intake in — Paste a voicemail transcript or your intake notes, and it returns an English summary structured for the file: who called, what they need, dates and names as stated, and what is still unclear.
  3. Send the English update out — Give it your English draft and it returns a natural Spanish version. Anything that could translate more than one way comes back flagged for you to confirm, not silently chosen.
  4. Review before it goes anywhere — Every output is a draft. You confirm the meaning and send it yourself.

Compliance: assisted draft, always reviewed

This drafts from the input you supply. It never sends or files anything, never invents facts you didn’t provide, and carries a hard-coded “Not legal advice — review before use” disclaimer on every output.

What’s inside

  • Spanish intake → English file summaryVoicemail transcripts and handwritten intake notes come back as a structured English summary you can drop straight into the matter file.
  • English → natural Spanish client commsStatus updates, document requests, and appointment confirmations drafted in Spanish that reads like a person wrote it, not a machine.
  • Ambiguity flagged, never guessedWhere a term has more than one defensible translation, it says so and asks. It does not pick one quietly and move on.
  • Works from what you give itIt summarizes and translates what you supply. It never invents facts, looks anything up, or sends a message on your behalf.

✓ Works great when

  • A real share of your inquiries arrive in Spanish
  • You are the bilingual bottleneck in your own firm
  • You want every client message reviewed before it sends

✗ What breaks at scale

  • You want Spanish intake routed into your case management automatically
  • You need status updates to fire in Spanish when a case event happens
  • You want clients checking their own status in Spanish without emailing you

Frequently asked

What do I need to run this?

Claude Desktop. Install the plugin from the Extensions panel, paste in the Spanish intake or your English draft, and run it. Setup takes about three minutes.

Can this replace a certified court interpreter?

No. Where a certified interpreter or certified translation is legally required — a hearing, a sworn filing, a document going to the court — this does not substitute for one. It drafts; you, or your interpreter, confirm accuracy. Use it for the business side of client communication: intake notes, status updates, document requests.

How accurate is the Spanish?

Good enough to send after you read it, which is the only standard that matters here. It is built to flag rather than guess: where a legal or procedural term has more than one defensible translation, it surfaces the choice instead of picking one quietly. That is why every output is a draft. This is assisted drafting, always reviewed.

Does it touch my legal work or send anything?

No. It summarizes and translates what you hand it. It does not give advice, compute deadlines, look anything up, or send a message on your behalf. You review every draft and send it yourself.

Can you automate the whole bilingual pipeline?

Yes. The free skill translates one message at a time with you in the middle. Spanish intake routed into your case management, automatic Spanish status updates, and Spanish client portal access is a Quick-Win Build, from $1,500, typically live within a week.
