Hello @Malissa, for the Firefighting Foam - VAM Law - ELG/Meadow Law - Shield Legal retainer, do you have any idea if we can change the date format to mm/dd/yyyy? And on the HIPPA, do you think they would want us to put a check mark on "entire record"? Thank you!
Hi @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. I can check. I think this is a pretty standard ELG retainer/HIPAA. How have we handled them in the past?
previously we've left the top blank and then just put the MM/DD/YYYY in that bigger space on page 4
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M Per Cam, you guys are good to do the dates as we have in the past.
checking with him to be sure. but as for the dates, you'
re good to do what you've done in the past
Hi @Malissa we just got this retainer from Dan Abir, this is for LA County Foster Care Abuse - ACTS - DL - Flatirons - Shield Legal and it currently has the wrong year in the contract. Is there any way we can change this and change the format of the day to have mm/dd/yyyy instead of that? Thank you!
can you forward me his email? i'll reply and ask for an updated date
is 2023 on all the retainers he sent or just that one?
Ok i just talked to Cam
Per Cam, if other ones are correct then we are approved to update this one to same format as others
Thank you @Malissa I'm not salty at all about you beating me in the league
i totally thought you were going to win that one @deleted-U055HQT39PC
Good morning, @Malissa! It seems we didn't get a HIPAA for the new AFFF Bowersox/ELG, do you happen to have it?
Excellent, thank you so much! @Malissa, will get this mapped and ready ASAP
@Malissa One more question! for this, can i change this to the standard MM/DD/YYYY format? My concern is also that we are nearing the end of the year and the contract states 2024.
@Malissa It'll look like this instead and the date will be generated automatically to match the date it was signed once i'm finished mapping it 🙂
@Malissa For now I've been instructed to map out the contract as is. But it will need to be revised at some point!
or we get a time machine
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M I have email approval from ELG to update the date line
Lol. But at least it's like... same day and not days later.
@Malissa Good afternoon! For the NY Sex abuse retainer, i was wondering if i can remove these fields? I guess they indicate where the initial should go
yeah that's just showing where stuff should go
i guess replace it with whatever we use for the initial
It's for Wood Pellet ETO Exposure - Crump - ELG - Shield Legal
hi @deleted-U05496RCQ9M let me find out. If you don't hear from me by 10 tomorrow, remind me!
Good morning @Malissa! Any word on the retainer for the Wood Pellet campaign? Also just wondering, they didn't send us a HIPAA, do we just use the elg Hipaa that we have? Please let me know, thank you!!
Good morning @Malissa! Any word on the retainers yet? Thank you again!
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M good news. He says that change is fine and we can just use the standard ELG hipaa
hi @here I was wondering if you guys could send me, when ready, the updated retainer and anything else for ACTS LA Wildfires?
Here you go! @Malissa We just made the fields for date of damage and damaged property address bigger in the first page so those questions in the intake form can be mapped directly!
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M i'm blind. where is it? lol
GOT IT! Thank you!
@Malissa Good afternoon! Do you by any chance, have the contact number for Levinson?
There's a very difficult PNC that wants to call the law firm but when I checked their website, the contact us page only leads to a form that you have to fill out so they can contact the client themselves
For Firefighting Foam - Nations - Levinson (TC) - Shield Legal
Yes, apparently the PNC did call nations and they told her that Levinson is the one handling it
she's so difficult that nations doesnt want to deal with her? lol
if she wants her cash now she needs to call JG Wentworth
it's weird but i don't have a number for them. let me see if i can find one
Okay! I'll just let the agent know to tell the PNC that if they want to contact the firm, they'd have to input their information in their website lol thank you again, @Malissa!!
@Malissa Firefighting Foam - VAM Law - ELG/Meadow Law - Shield Legal The date is hardcoded as 2024 Can we remove the date part and just have it auto post MM/DD/YYYY
I’ll ask and get back to you. I’d bet it’s ok.
This agreement (“Agreement”) is made the _ day of __, 2024 TO This agreement ("Agreement" is made MM/DD/YYYY
EXECUTED effective on this _ day of _, 2024. TO EXECUTED effective on MM/DD/YYYY.
but mine has 2025, so if you want me to just use this one for now i can also do that
*Thread Reply:* Okay! Will you let me know if they'll allow me to change the format?
ELG is fast. Yes, we can make the change to MM/DD/YYYY
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y @deleted-U05496RCQ9M ^
@Malissa Good morning! For the ACTS Wildfire retainers there is not a specified spot for the injured party's name and the Singer's name there is a spot for the Clients name what do they want there?
lol no worries. Can you send me a screenshot?
i'm listening to a conversation about video gaming so it's hard to visualize lol
The injured party in this case would be the client. And they would be the ones signing/initialing. They have to be the homeowner iirc. We need to make sure their damaged property address is in the retainer too. It seems hard to see in the one attached.
So for cases with wrongful death we still want the injured party as the client there is just no spot for the singers name on the retainer also yes we made room I sent you the original one my bad
dangit Christian. You just reminded me that people died in that fire. Let me double check before you guys make any updates
I have a contact that will reply pretty quick
I used to live in Altadena so i'm all for these intakes. I'll get back to you asap.
Cali raised as well i have friends close to LA so so am I
"I have a quick question for you about the retainer. We haven't encountered it yet, but I'm sure it's going to come up. If we have an instance where the homeowner died and the person contacting us is with the estate/family, how should that be shown on the retainer? Right now it reads just as the injured party is the one calling in and signing. Should there be a section if the injured party is deceased?"
sweet. I'll let you know
sounds like we got an updated retainer comin
@deleted-U062D2YJ15Y They got back to me kind of late: "if a claim is being made on behalf of someone who is deceased, you can put “Estate of [Deceased’s Name]” in place of the client name"
so if someone dies in the fire, it's the estate that becomes the client
@Malissa For PFAS - Levinson (TC/MC) - ELG - Shield Legal The contract needs to be updated. Are we able to change "the day of__ 2024" to just allow us to put the date that it is being singed in a "DD/MM/YYYY" format for pages 1 and 3 of the contract
@Malissa This has the date issue. Can we change this to just populate the date MM/DD/YYYY i
@deleted-U055HQT39PC he's been approving those requests. I'll give him a heads up we're doing this one too.
@Malissa Hi! Just for clarification, all of these ML campaigns: • Firefighting Foam 2 - VAM Law - ELG - Meadow Law - Shield Legal • Firefighting Foam - Douglas London - ML - Shield Legal • Firefighting Foam - ELG - ML - Shield Legal No thyroid disease? or is Firefighting foam 2 not included? and would it also be the same for the original Firefighting Foam - VAM Law - ELG/Meadow Law - Shield Legal?
I’ll get clarification on VAM 2. ELG and Douglas London exclude thyroid disease
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M VAM is going to still be the top 6
gotcha! also i don't have a HIPAA for the Douglas london campaign, do you happen to have it?
That's weird. It got posted. Hang on a second. It's got 2 parts
@Malissa Hi again! So i'm trying to work on the AFFF Douglas London. We were told to just clone the intake and criteria, which we did from Nations-Van cause it's the most recent non-elg, but we realized that they also sent us an intake form (it has completely different questions). Which direction should we follow?
Additionally, can I modify these in the retainer? I would like to make the name field a bit longer and to get rid of 2025 so we can use the MM/DD/YYYY format if possible. Thank you again, Malissa!
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M We were going to clone it originally but they sent the intake file. We need to use what they sent. If there's something that makes no sense, let me know and i'll get clarity.
Can you send me a copy of the intake when done)
Good morning team! Is anything else needed for Chowchilla Womens Prison Abuse - ACTS - AWD - Shield Legal? @here
@Malissa That one is already live but we do need retainer and hipaa for Chowchilla Womens Prison Abuse - ACTS - Loghmana - Shield Legal
Literally just got that one. Will be sending in a second. I want to read it over lol
I'm working on the Douglas London AFFF, will have that done and sent over to you later today! @Malissa
Here's the Loghmana retainer. Let's double check everything on it it make sure all the i's are dotted and t's are crossed. The wildfire stuff has been a headache lol.
@Malissa So sorry to bother you again 😭. I'm working on the AFFF Douglas London Intake form and it's significantly different from what we have done before, is there a criteria that goes along with it? Because with how they want their intake form to be, the criteria is going to have to change as well since it won't match with the intake form.
Hmmmmmmmm let me review. Put that aside for now. If you can send me the biggest issues
Okay! Just let me know. Because in their intake form, there are sections asking for PFAS, along with residencies regarding PFAS contaminated waters, brands of firefighting foam, and turnout gear exposure. Just completely different from our other firefighting foams lol
HHHHHHM they might not know that's there. i'll find out
Our other firefighting foams make it clear that they need to have significant number exposures that the client can describe and no PFAS/TOG questions. The questions they have on their form kind of have the client break them up into more detail but no kind of actual qualifiers/criteria for the agents to follow correctly. It's hard for me to really explain lol
That's ok, basically their AFFF has PFAS as well and we treat that differently and will take extra time to setup if they want to use the PFAS part
Yes, I just really need a solid criteria that go along with their intake form since I need to highlight specific areas of the file that will be "qualifiers" and if we use the current criteria we have (a clone from AFFF Nations-Van) it's not going to essentially make sense or match up to their form
cool. And if I convince them to use the regular intake for AFFF we can get Douglas and London done today?
Yeah! Or just an actual criteria, I pretty much have all the questions built out for the API already from their intake form, just need to put them in the actual campaign which wont take too long
The questions didn't take me that long and they're all already built, I just need to put them in LR campaign 🙂
Ok, per Jon Becker re Douglas & London, "Please setup with standard AFFF intake/criteria using the 5 injuries (no thyroid disease) and send a test lead."
I'm going to loop Mark in so we can get that test sent.
@here just FYI you guys, i know this one is weird
AFFF VAM 2 - We've paused leadspedia for #1 and turned on #2. We can start signing on #2 and finish up signing whatever came in for #1. We can do that until Friday noon/afternoon-ish
i know that one is weird. and so is Chowchilla Kuzyk RB. sorry for the weird ones
@Malissa Hi! Just wondering, have we gotten the hipaa for the MI YTC Abuse campaign yet?
@Malissa Good morning! Is there criteria for IL Clergy Abuse - SGGH - GLF - Shield Legal?
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Qz5a-qCAPq4MFu74l5aVdjBdzfeP3pitxFoQ4Q7EzDw/edit?gid=0#gid=0 @Malissa Hi! I made a sheet with our current pending new campaigns, i've listed what else we need for our side to complete on our part!
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Update on Paraquat DL-ML - we're going to use the same HIPAA that we're using for Paraquat DL - Flatirons.
also! @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Douglas & London has approved of our intake for AFFF. we don't have to use theirs with all the PFAS stuff.
no problem. Can you guys let me know when that one is good to go? well both of those?
@Malissa may i also use the hipaa for dl flatirons in Hair Salon Bladder Cancer - DL - Flatirons - Shield Legal?
I think we've got one from a similar campaign. Hang on a second let me look
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M yes, that's their standard hipaa. it's the same one we used on Salon Bladder Cancer
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M I don't see it on the spreadsheet. are we missing anything for Chowchilla - ACTS- Loghmana?
@Malissa Chowchilla Womens Prison Abuse - ACTS - Loghmana - Shield Legal went live on the 28th!
hmmmmmmmmmmmmm i think Cam didn't turn on the leads. Thanks!
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M leads are on! We turned on Paraquat - Dicello - Meadow too
just fyi @here Cam wants Paraquat DL/Meadow on today
@Malissa Here's what I got! Firefighting Foam - Douglas London - ML - Shield Legal (Went live on Jan 29) Paraquat - DL - ML - Shield Legal - Integrations (Finished and retainer mapped, I just asked for API for this)
Hey @Malissa Desiree from BCL called me and said ELG told her that Wood Pallet and ETO are two different campaigns?
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
if Cam sends me question marks i will laugh
Cam used actual words but it was still ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Hi @Malissa! I just have a few questions on the IL Clergy abuse intake form, do you have time for me to go over there and show you?
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Ok, we have criteria for IL Clergy. I posted this in the call center channel too but i'm taking out the links because that was a jump scare when i posted it.
1) was PC sexually abused as a minor. No physical abuse (only) cases. 2) was the perp a Catholic priest. 3) ideally no one over age 70 either.
If PC born after 7/24/1983, SOL is good. But we’re signing cases where SOL gone as well, and will try to work tolling theory. Where abuse occurred, nature of abuse, whether a known perp, etc. are all also relevant to value, but that’s not part of criteria at initial signing stage. Best cases are those involving Archdiocese of Chicago, Diocese of Joliet, and religious orders in the Chicagoland / Cook County, Will County, and Lake County areas… and a known perp.
Some known perps identified below.
Good morning @Malissa! I cant' help but get stuck on the criteria for IL Clergy abuse. It looks like the only non negotiable MUSTS in the criteria are: 1) Sexually abused as a minor 2) Abuser is a Catholic Priest 3) No one over age 70.
The way I'm reading it is that these bullet points are preferred but not a MUST: • Born after 07/24/1983 but still sign out of SOL (because they can potentially try and argue for these people to be included in the litigation) • Where the abuse occurred, nature of abuse, whether the abuser is known • Best cases involve the archdiocese of chicago, diocese of joliet, and other religious orders in chicagoland and a known abuser, but not a disqualifier if they don't know who or where it occurred. Is this correct? I guess I'm just a little confused, I haven't come across criteria yet that isn't matter of fact and just black and white. For me it looks like there's a bit more wiggle room, like as long as it was a Priest in Chicago that abused them when they were a minor, they will qualify and they don't have to necessarily know the location, who, nor are they required to share the nature of abuse like in our other SA campaigns.
If you can offer more clarity on this I would be so grateful cause I've been giving myself a headache trying to properly build the criteria and intake the way they want it lol
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M go take a break! Don't get a headache because those suck.
Let's create a sheet and run it by Cam. it can be:
@Malissa This is what I have so far lol: IL Clergy Abuse - SGGH - GLF - Shield Legal - Criteria I got stuck after listing the priests
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M i made a couple of edits
let's clean it up a bit and i'll send to Cam. their criteria was kinda vague lol
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M So Cam is trying to get less ambiguous criteria out of them. you can put it aside for now. Don't stress it!
@here
criteria for IL YRTC Abuse
Were you or a loved one sexually abused while a resident at a YRTC Facility?* (must be yes) Facility where abuse occurred:* (must NOT be other) Did abuse occur while 17 or under?* (must be yes) Were you born in 1983 or AFTER?* (must be yes) Do you have a lawyer already?** (must be no)
Abuse occured at one of these facilities
• Timberline Knolls (Lemont, IL) • Montrose Behavioral Health Hospital (Chicago, IL) • The Pavilion (UHS) • Hartgrove Hospital (UHS) • Rock River Academy (UHS) • Riveredge Hospital (UHS) • Streamwood Hospital (UHS) • Turning Point Youth Center (UHS) • Lincoln Prairie Behavioral Health Center (UHS) • Garfield Park Behavioral Hospital (Chicago, IL) • Chicago Lakeshore Hospital (Cook County) • Rice Child and Family Center (Cook County) • Lake Behavioral Hospital (Lake County) • Baptist Children's Home and Family Services (White County) abuse was by facility staff/employee or another resident sexual abuse skin to skin
no problem @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y. I hope that helps That's hot off the press from Cam
I got excited i thought it was gonna be IL Clergy lol @Malissa but thank you! Working on this one now
lol working on that one @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. i have a draft i need approved.
@Malissa Do they have a specific intake form they want me to follow for the IL YTC? Or did they want me to clone MI YTC?
Use that one as a base, mark it confidential and send me a copy to share with cam. 🙂
Note, this is the draft i made. i marked it as a draft at the top. 🙂
no problem. i'll let you know if we need to make any updates
if they can't ID their abuser, that's ok. but it won't be a strong case.
no worries. It's Cam so i'm not too worried but i also don't want him thinking i just download the forms without it lol
or you guys just pass it around without it lol
Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy @Malissa For IL Clergy Abuse - SGGH - GLF - Shield Legal We know the retainer is the same as MI YTC but there is a field that's asking for the facility and the date of the abuse but on the criteria says "Preferably a known perpetrator and location. Unknown perpetrator and location are still okay, but the case won’t be as strong." So what are we supposed to put on the retainer if the PNC does not know the Location.
right above that @Malissa the retainer does say youth residential treatment center too.
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y @deleted-U05496RCQ9M Here's what the firm sent me about Clergy Abuse:
Preferably, please have your team ask where the church/facility was located. Ask them the streets, city. That way your team can Google and help them find the name. If they can’t remember leave it blank but please put city and state and date of abuse. Thanks.
They also said to use the same retainer for IL YRTC and IL Clergy
@Malissa Good morning! Any word on the IL YTC Abuse template?
@Malissa can we clarify that the criteria we have for Wood Pellet is valid? I know that one kinda got jumbled together with ETO, we just want to make sure that what we got was valid for Wood Pellet
Buenos dias @here
I'm looking at your pending campaigns spreadsheet. I have some updates (Not for wood pellets tho)
Paraquat - DL - ML - Shield Legal Pending HIPAA - For the HIPAA, use the same one we use for DL/Flatirons Paraquat.
MI YTC Abuse - SGGH - GLF - Shield Legal Pending HIPAA -
@Malissa Can you please send me the updated retainer for the IL Clergy and YTC abuse? Thank you!!
I would just replace what we have and use these instead
@Malissa Hi Malissa, for the MI Clergy one, did they give us a list of known locations and perpetrators like they did for IL?
i asked for it too and they sent over everything they wanted us to use.
i'll bug again but i'm going to give it a bit.
they were a little irritated this morning lol
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M i just asked for a current list of MI perps.
@Malissa for MI Clergy we have a Firm Review, abuser was a Brother (monk) not a Father (priest), are they willing to take something like this?
@deleted-U055HQT39PC do they name the Brother?
abuse ended up being over the clothes, so we wont push it. however, would be good to know if we can send over like Nuns, (sisters, brothers)
i'll double check but i think it's going to be the typical clergy (nuns, monks, bishops, priests, etc.)
thank you @Malissa right now our criteria reads Must be a priest
can you send me that criteria? i read over IL and the only exclusion i saw was that they don't want teachers.
Yeah for that one, it said to just clone IL and just change it to MI
Yeah says "must be a known perpetrator" that might get updated to "member of clergy" i'll find out
no skin on skin was instant disqualification for monk dude tho
do they want a known perpetrator? cause for IL they just stated it would be stronger if they know who it is
man that sounds insensitive... I'm sorry y'all lol
yeah it's always stronger if it's someone they already know about. But if the person can name their abuser, that's pretty strong too
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ogkJNZq-8y1vHy-91ycU1ARP8M4-D3WNQ4MWkxH4aKE/edit?tab=t.0 here's the criteria we have right now
hmmm that's a little different than what i sent for IL. BUT i think all we need to do is update "by a Catholic Priest" to "a member of the Clergy". I'll let you know what the firm says
IMHO monks and nuns shouldn't get away with the same stuff but you never know what the firm says
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC i don't think the attorney is catholic or even studied it:
"Any member of the clergy such as priest, bishop would qualify. Monks are not part of the Catholic group." She's gotta be thinking Buddhist.
Anywho, Any member of the clergy.
also, for both IL and MI, do you want me to change the criteria to MUST be a known perpetrator?
or should we keep it open to no need to be known but must be able to identify by name and physical description?
The original criteria was super vague. Andy and i had to put it together. Known perp is ideal. However if the person named isn't on the list, we can send it to the firm to review.
Okay, I'll do that then: If perpetrator is not on the list, send for firm review
and that list you sent me for michigan that's all priests, do you know?
Those are the known perps they have. They might all be priests - i haven't had a chance to look
cause they want people in the clergy but only gave us a list of priests..
I mean......... priests are pretty terrible it looks like
not all priests but definitely a lot of them
@Malissa Good morning! I wanted to ask you about one of the diagnoses given to us with the Wood Pellet criteria. One of the diagnoses is Cardio pulmonary Obstructive Disease, but upon research, this is not a real diagnosis whatsoever. Did the attorneys actually mean Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)? It's confusing the agents a bit lol and it's a tier 1 condition
It would be Tier 1.
@Malissa Hi! I was looking at the documents for the AZ SA campaign, there's two hipaas and both of them are for Douglas London. Do we have other documents since the campaign is actually for Burg Simpson and Meadow?
@Malissa I know Meadow and Douglas London have worked together in the past, just want to make sure these docs are good to use
Yeah and no actual retainer, they're both HIPAA
I think Becker was tired when he named those or it means something else. Those are just for the afff campaign with Douglass London
They're not going to give us documents for AZ YTC until we get the intake form ready for review. Then they'll make updates to it and will send the docs later
hi @deleted-U05496RCQ9M! Some good news - Meadow has reviewed your draft AZ intake and they've only got little change requests. Please see attached. Their edits are in red.
@deleted-U055HQT39PC they had some other requests regarding intake that's more technical. Cam's asking for clarifications and I'll pass that along to you as soon as i can
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M Jon wants to add dropdowns - heads up. Before i get all that though, we need to add something to the AZ intake: For the Abuser 1-4+ sections. Please ask which facility the abuser was located.
@Malissa Does he want that question as a dropdown or an open text box? Is that what you mean?
Or are the dropdowns you're referring to different questions?
Here's the list @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
Dropdowns • Question 5 ◦ Oasis Behavioral Health (Acadia) ◦ Sonora Behavioral Health (Acadia) ◦ Palo Verde Behavioral Health (UHS) ◦ Quail Run Behavioral Health Hospital (UHS) ◦ Devereux Advanced Behavioral Health AZ ◦ Mingus Mountain Academy (Sequel/Vivant) ◦ Casa Grande Academy (Sequel/Vivant) • Questions 36, 53, and 70 ◦ Penetration ◦ Oral Copulation ◦ Masturbation ◦ Unlawful Touching (Groping)
Numeric only Fields • Question 9 • Question 10 • Question 34 • Question 51 • Question 68
So @Malissa • #5 is already a dropdown with all the facilities, the only change would be adding casa grande cause that wasn't part of the criteria they sent us so it wasn't added. • 36, 53, and 70 are also already dropdowns. i have unlawful touching as "Skin-to-skin contact of intimate parts" but I can change that to Unlawful Touching (Groping) if they want? • I'm confused on the Numeric only Fields lol
I'd stick with whatever they have on the redlined intake that i posted earlier. What we can do is when you get that done, we can send them another copy with the updates. we can just highlight what's a dropdown or something.
as for the numeric only, i'm guessing he wants a field that will only take a number. like no attempts at typing in a sentence
yeah that's definitely what he means by numeric. For example: 32 instead of 32 years or "Back in 1932 i was...."
So the problem with the numeric fields is that's not a thing in LR unless it's a date, social, or phone number. 34, 51, 68 are dropdowns that go from 1-5+
let's leave those as dropdowns for now and let him know when we send a draft. 🙂
i think it's really about it just being a number
so 9 and 10 would have to be a textbox unless he wants a dropdown of every single number which is gonna be difficult
with the question he wants me to add with what facility the abuser was in, does he want that as a dropdown with all the facilities (this would also be a slight issue because we are taking pretty much any Treatment facility in AZ including the ones listed in the criteria so we would have to then add another text box if it isn't on the list of facilities) or a text box?
based on LR restrictions and capabilities, let's make it a text box for now.
I just sent him a message asking if he wants that added question to be a dropdown
Buenos Dias! Happy Friday Junior!
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M Yes, we are making this a dropdown:
"For the Abuser 1-4+ sections. Please ask which facility the abuser was located."
@Malissa Gotcha, so I'll put the facilities in a dropdown with an additional text box for any facilities that isn't on the list
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M when you get the intake done, can you send me a copy of it? I need to share it with Jon @ Meadow so he can build out their API to match.
@Malissa Here's a copy of the intake form! I also highlighted purple the number of every question that is a dropdown
@Malissa Hello! Do we have a HIPAA for Dublin Womens Prison Abuse - LOSG TC - Slater - Shield Legal?
@Malissa I updated that spreadsheet as well, it'll show you everything we need thus far! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Qz5a-qCAPq4MFu74l5aVdjBdzfeP3pitxFoQ4Q7EzDw/edit?gid=0#gid=0
@deleted-U055HQT39PC not yet
Hello @Malissa! May i please have permission to change this field in the VGA AWKO - Goldlaw retainers? I just wanna change it to a MM/DD/YYYY format
not yet @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. I'm working on reports now and I'll text Jon Becker again afterwards. I've bugged him a lot
thanks @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y. Did he get you a retainer?
:batt: this is the new christian emoji while mine is :thisisfine:
Hey Malissa, Tony is wanting to make Dublin live. Are we good to proceed without a hipaa
@deleted-U055HQT39PC Just make sure that retainer is the same. The firm just sent it with the HIPAA
@Malissa Hi! Sobo wanted me to let you know that his slack is also being weird and please send the docs here needed for Chowchilla - Awko
weird. i was just about to ask you guys what you needed for Goldlaw Chowchilla and Gaming Addiction
Pending NEW Campaigns I updated the sheet! This is what we need
Thank link wasn't refreshing for me @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. Your link worked though. weird.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M HIPAA for Chowchilla. HITECH too
I put the intake docs for St Helens and Hudson Bay in the Call Center channel. Here they are
i thought i sent you guys the hipaa for dublin
lol no worries. slack broke and everything went weird lol
So that doc you just sent is the retainer for St Helens and Hudson Bay, yeah?
She said that's what they use for their SA cases
So now we just need the docs for AZ Juvenile Hall and the criteria for both St Helens and Hudsons Bay
i feel like Cam gave instructions somewhere on that criteria. i gotta find it. I bugged them again about AZ
They've got to make some tweaks. He said i should have it in 36 hours
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Do you guys have the tier criteria for VGA?
@Malissa Good morning! I was wondering if there was any information on Dr. Scott Lee? I saw that the criteria they provided was only for Dr. Derrick Todd and only provided his background, but we didn't get anything for/about Dr. Scott Lee. I tried looking him up and the only Dr. Scott Lee I could find that has any relation to sexual abuse is a gynecologist that worked at CIW (California Institution for Women). That might be him, but I wanted to know if there might be more information from the firm? Thank you!
Hi @deleted-U05496RCQ9M The basic criteria is the same for both. I asked for an info sheet on Dr Lee though and I’ll send as soon as I can. :)
Yeah, I figured it would be the same criteria for both, I just needed his info cause there's like 5 different Dr. Scott Lees lol
Also, if you guys have ever watched Scrubs........ Dr. Todd
lol I think Scrubs was Sunnie’s favorite show
Anthony's a liar, he just wants to call me a scrub
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Can you guys let me know when VGA - AWKO/GOLDLAW is ready to go?
Ok cool. The tracker said almost ready. Thanks!
i posted it in the call center just now. Here's the HIPAA for Todd and Lee
Would it be the same retainer as the Dr. Barry Brock campaign?
are you guys ok if i share your new campaigns sheet with Greg?
I have a present for you @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
Hi @Malissa! I updated the spreadsheet regarding what we need for each campaign, so now this is what we need for each: • AZ Juvenile Hall Abuse - ML - ML - Shield Legal: Need Retainer • St Helens Sexual Abuse - AWKO - AWKO - Shield Legal: Need Criteria • Hudsons Bay High School Abuse - AWKO - AWKO - Shield Legal: Need Criteria
i was promised a retainer for AZ today @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. I hope my heart doesn't get broken.
I'll follow up again on that criteria. REMIND ME!
sounds good. i've got a meeting at 12 with the dude who made that promise
i need him to approve an invoicing format too so he's gotta stop running away
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y sorry for the late message. Cam said to roll with this criteria for the AWKO sex abuse campaigns:
Abused by staff or teacher at _School while a student Abuse occured while 17 or under No lawyer
Traffic is starting tomorrow so we need to get this updated asap.
We’ve got Everything for the new rush campaign
Ok do you think we need these done tonight or first thing AM
How long will it take? He wanted to “get it in tonight as traffic starts tomorrow”
I can get it done tonight. Their intake form is really short, not the greatest tbh. That's what they want tho right not our usual template
That’s their intake form and that’s pretty much it.
And thank you. I will bring you candy or something
This is what I have for criteria St Helens Sexual Abuse - AWKO - AWKO - Shield Legal - Criteria Hudsons Bay High School Abuse - AWKO - AWKO - Shield Legal - Criteria
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y
HI! I have a special treat for you guys at my desk if someone wants to come grab it. Or i can walk it over in a bit.
@Malissa For those AWKO campaigns, the retainer has yellow highlights. Are those the only things we're mapping?
Looks like that's a chunk of it but other parts should be mapped i think. Like the blank after WE at the beginning
the highlights look like the part the PNC needs to sign?
yeah that's what's confusing, they highlight like printed name and some signatures, but not every signature box or date box
i think the HIPAA/HITECH is the same as what they've used for their other compaigns
How different is this retainer from their VGA campaign?
it's not too different tbh. we can just map as much as possible and if they don't want it they can let us know
@deleted-U055HQT39PC How is the setup going for those new DL/Flatirons campaigns?
@Malissa we were asked to change the intake forms, so we don’t have a full clone. Converting radio bubbles to dropdowns etc
Will take longer than normal to implement those changes asked for
Hey, @Malissa Is there a list of facilities for the NV YRTC campaign as well as the AZ one? or am i keeping the list of facilities the same as AZ YTC Burg Simpson - ML?
Yeah keep AZ the same for now. I'll bug Cam but with or without it we gotta get it set up today. O.o
AZ and Nevada are set up as much as we could without criteria and without a retainer and hipaa
Cam wanted to clone criteria so that should be good.
@Malissa can you see any attachments in Cam's email? I can't
@deleted-U055HQT39PC glad it wasn’t just me lol
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M I have a criteria update from the firm (finally) for St Helens SA
"For the Oregon case, the client would need to be under 40. I know all the clients with that particular perpetrator would be young, but in case someone calls with a much older case, the SOL is age 40. Thanks."
Buenos Dias! @here are we all set with Maryland - BG/Meadow?
Also, I did want to ask you something! @Malissa Alex Cuzzo gave us this list of NV YRTC facilities: • Silver State Adolescent & Treatment Center. ... • Sierra Sage Treatment Center. ... • Moriah Behavioral Health • Newport Academy • Evolve Residential Treatment Centers • Havenwood Academy. • The Nevada Youth Center (NYTC) • Spring Mountain Treatment Center, • Willow Springs Center • Silver State Adolescent Treatment • SunArch Academy • Summit View Youth Center • Desert Winds Recovery Center • Desert Parkway • Seven Hills Hospital • Reno Behavioral Healthcare Hospital
Are these correct? Should I add them to the criteria>
She probably got that from Meadow. I'll run it by Cam to be sure it works for DL/Flatirons
@Malissa! Quick question, are they limited to those facilities or are we open to taking any facilities in nevada
Thank you, I just want to make sure so I can add the necessary questions to the form!
@Malissa hey, for AZ YRTC are they accepting resident to resident abuse? Since there wasn't criteria provided for the DL - Flatirons campaign, we just cloned Meadow's criteria which includes Resident to Resident abuse. Just wanted to clarify if DL is also taking it.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M if inmate v inmate is on Meadow's then yes
And do we have word yet on the facilities for NV if the client is limited to those facilities or are we taking any YTC in NV?
He hasn't said yet. Keep working on setup though.
is there an option to make other facilities an auto qa review or something?
well i can just add a dropdown with only the facilities. but if we're not limited to those facilities, i add an "other" option and then a textbox tied to that option pops up to list what other facility
Hey @here Just a heads up. Gomez Law FINALLY funded their Noodle Soup campaign. Cam is going to chat with the attorney for any updates and he'll give the ok to go live with it. It will probably be today
Hi @here Is the Pending New Campaigns sheet up to date?
AZ i'm still working on because they're confusing me. They told me to make changes to the initial intake form, sent a whole email about it, then started talking about how it's for the secondary. I think they're all confused
It was forwarded to me by Alex, it was a message thread between her and someone from meadow.
hmmmm can you send to me? malissa@shield-legal.com
Both Alex and Becker came up to me last week and told me to make changes to the intake form then forwarded me the email so I started making changes accordingly and when I listed what needed to be done and for confirmation, that's when the confusion began
I still have no idea what i'm supposed to do, because the changes they listed matches up with the questions in the initial intake form in terms of order and where they're supposed to be, but then they started speaking about it being in the secondary interview and it started not making any sense to me lol
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M Here is the retainer for MD Juv Hall - BG/Kuzyk
@Malissa Good morning, just wanted to let you know that I spoke to Alex yesterday and we were able to work through the confusion. Now all we need now is the retainer!
Sweet! The time change messed with me yesterday and i was getting confused lol
@Malissa Good morning! since we're just cloning the most recent NH YDC template, it does have a list of known facilities and states that any other NH facility must be sent for review. Is this fine for New Hampshire YDC Abuse - BG - VAM Law - Meadow Law - Shield Legal?
I'm actually talking with the firm right now. Let me see if they have a list of facilities they want to focus on or if any NH facility is fine
• New Hampshire Youth Development Center (YDC) also known as Sununu Youth Services Center (SYSC) • The State Industrial School • The Philbrook School • The Tobey Special Education School • Mount Prospect Academy • Nashua Children’s Home • Jolicoeur School • Youth Services Center
@Malissa Hi! I just realized, we don't have a hipaa for NH Youth Center Abuse - BCL - Wright Schulte - Shield Legal
waiting on that and to see if they have specific centers they want to focus on
hi @here I just put a hot fire in the call center channel. Cam wants this to be ready to go today
I reached out to the firm for the HIPAA and Retainer. hopefully they send it directly to me
You guys do what you need to do. i'll stay on top of getting you the docs
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y I have a HIPAA for NH
Retainer and hipaa for the new school campaign
did we put the retainer back in for noodle soup?
@Malissa Is there any updates on the list of facilities for New Hampshire?
@here you guys got the hipaa for NH BCL/Schulte, right?
@Malissa Paraquat - LegaFi - DL - Shield Legal Are we cloning the DL criteria and intake?
i think i attached the DL criteria that Legafi sent over
Wagstaff is pretty much done so LegaFi is going to spend the rest of their budget with Dicello
@Malissa we are working on them, they should be done today EOD
Looks like the second screenshot is for the date. What’s the first one?
there's a weird line right in the middle of the bottom line, i can remove it. That's in a couple of pages for lines and some formatting
Cool. I’ll find out for you. The random line is probably ok to remove. someone probably let off the shift key too soon
Hey @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC are we still sending stuff through to the integrations board automatically?
Ok. I don’t think the guys are getting the alerts that they’re done like they used to
Maybe it was just a couple that got missed or were slow
i'll bug him again later today if i haven't heard anything
Law Ruler is being really slow. I sent you guys Legafi Dicello Paraquat right?
good morning you guys! @here
This might be a wayback machine request. Do we have an old intake and criteria for any Transvaginal Mesh (TVM) campaigns?
Yeah I don't see it in any of the dropdowns in LR or our monday boards
also i apologize if it takes me a minute to even respond, i currently have a wrist injury and it's hard to ty[e
You gotta stop with the WWE tryouts on the weekend
i really do, i can't help it though , my contenders are tough (the two terrorist cats)😭
we'll have to make adjustments but these are some good bones for the campaign that's coming
He's going to post everything it sounds like. This new one might be completely different
hi all, how are we doing with Paraquat - LegaFi/Dicello?
@Malissa Good afternoon! No rush, but if possible, can we ask Gomez firm if those listed noodles in the retainer and the visual list of brands and flavors they gave us is all we're taking? They never told us to take other brands past the list they gave us, but there is a spot in the retainer for "Other". Just wanted to know if they want to take other brands/flavors so i can adjust the criteria if needed.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M ok i need more coffee and both of the units need to be serviced. I've got a cup of gross kcup coffee in front of me. That all leads me to - i am confused? Is the issue the picture part? None of these/Other would be anything else I'd think.
He forgot to put water in his cup of noodles.
Pretty much my brain right now.
i wanna know if we are allowed to take other brands or are we limited to just what's in the pictures?
@Malissa Hey for Mormon Victim Abuse - Doman - HRSC - AWD - Shield Legal the criteria guidelines they sent over says Abuse must have occurred in one of four states: CA, OR, WA
Uhh its missing one.
Isn't there a movement to split part of california off? lol
ok it looks like it's just those three. they removed Louisiana which seems a very random state to have in that list anyway
This is Scully. She passed in 2021 at 18. She was 16 in this pic
She was a good cat. I'm allergic to cats though so she was my last cat. I had her for 16 of those 18 years
Hi @Malissa! I'm a bit confused on the TVM criteria. Especially this conversation right here: (this is alot i am so sorry)
A. What are the years accepted for the original implant of TVM? (ie original TVM must be implanted AFTER _(Year) Same answer as no. 1 above. _Sunnie Comment: So what SOL are we using??
B. How long does the TVM need to be implanted prior to removal or scheduled removal via surgery? (ie more than 3 months, 6 months etc?) We generally want mesh in place for greater than 6 months to be sign for products liability mesh case, although we do screen the cases for medical malpractice claims about failure to properly implant them and/or failure to diagnose/treat mesh complications, so we will consider all of them. Sunnie Comment: So are we using 6 months as the time frame for the TVM to have been implanted??
C. What are the years accepted for removal or scheduled removal via surgery (ie last 2 years, last 4 years etc) Again, we look at SOL in each case. If want a hardline rule, in almost no states can we proceed where removal/notice of defect was more than 3 years ago. Sunnie Comment: Are we using 3 years as the SOL for removal or scheduled surgery??
I'm not really getting direct answers from this conversation that was posted with the criteria so it's quite difficult to build around it.
Additionally they gave us two different types of criteria, one for Y-mesh and the other for TVM and each of them only had like 2 bullet points each and no required diagnoses or conditions that they experienced. In the background it said "found to cause irreversible pelvic scarring, pain with intercourse, urinary dysfunction, and pelvic pain, and can lead to erosions of the mesh into the vaginal canal or other organs." do i list these as the conditions they must have experienced??
So most women won't know what brand they got but they will know if it's TVM. So they don't have to know the brand. The firm can get that info with the medical records.
I understood that part for the TVM criteria, but for the Y-mesh criteria, they gave us a list of brands, can they be unsure of that one too?
as for the diagnosis, i'd say yes for now. What i'd do is create a draft criteria/intake sheet and we can run it by cam.
for C - Yes let's use 3 years.
b - i'd say at least 6 months but will consider sooner if there's malpractice. we could probably add in a "if less than 6 months" question.
for 1 and a.... they haven't said that they're only focusing on a few states or anything like that. Let's just go with the "there's no real time limitation" comment for now
also thank you! @Malissa sorry i was rushing to go to lunch, i was very hungry lol
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y If you guys can alert Dustin and Nick when you're done and they can do an API test for Depo I'd appreciate it. It's a rush
@Malissa I don't think we were told anything about this, first we're hearing from this
you just got tagged in the call center channel 😉
like within seconds of doing that i messaged here lol
Seeger Weiss is like "Why can't we test? Can we test now? How about now?" And i'm like "i don't have everything!!!" lol
lol security is running around here, people are getting terminated and it's chaos lol PURE CHAOS @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
i saw the dude standing near the weird triangle conference room looking all menacing
lol this is madness plus law ruler has slowed down to a crawl
i haven't even had a chance to play in lawruler today lol
@here Hey guys! Can you send me the intake questionnaire we use for Depo-Provera - Nielsen Law Firm - Lanier Law Firm - Meadow Law - Shield Legal? Jon Becker is asking. They're doing another depo campaign with a different firm
Becker wants to share with Seeger Weiss to get it approved
@Malissa Good morning! am i able to change the date format for the mormon abuse HRSC - AWD retainer?
i have not heard from them. and i can't find the email i sent either >.< i know i sent it.
okay! did we also hear back from gomez about the cup choices?
i checked the pending new campaigns sheet. is there an updated version?
Gomez says we can add "None of these" and "Other" to the photo section
more good news - yes you can make that date change
i am getting a little more clarification on the soup
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Ok, per what we just discussed, John Gomez said he "will still accept" other noodle soups
@Malissa Hey! is the "residing at _" part good to be left empty? along with those 2 lines, it says "due to the sexual abuse of " i know the PNC's name needs to be on there but on the next one where it says "by _" is it good to leave blank also? because if there are multiple abusers, there won't be room for any of that
I think Residing at should be their current address, which we should get.
Let me see what phrase they'd like to use (like John Smith, et al or something). The name is very important. Which one is this? LDS?
yes. but the issue is that if there are multiple abusers, there isn't a space for all of them
Right. I'm going to ask how they want handle that space if there's more than like.... 2
unless we pool all of them in one text box but i don't really trust the agents to do that correctly.
how many will fit? if they are like.... normal length names. not Jedadiah Ezekiel Hoobastank or something
so if the name is long or if there's multiple it's gonna look really tiny
"Is there a particular way you'd like us to list more than 1 name in this section? We might be able to do two but anything more would be a little small."
yeah unless they just want the abuser with the most severe sexual abuse, which will then just be abuser 1
Just the most serious abuser can go in that line. They'll review and determine if others should be in it as well.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M so i'm looking at what Cam posted to me with Bard Crump/Simmons: Distro will be to same simmons cooper contacts and crump, if we did API on the previous simmons cooper/baypoint campaign.
I think you're fine to adjust the intake to be less restrictive.
"the plan on this campaign is to capture all of the DQ's from the Crump/Lanier campaign, since it is very restrictive. Please alert Tony of this, we can also go back through previously declined leads to see if they qualify."
Here's the BCL Lanier intake form they told us to clone and the criteria for Bard Powerport - BCL - Simmons Cooper - Shield Legal criteria
due to the criteria of the BCL - Simmons Cooper, the intake form that is a "better match" for the criteria is going to be the Bard PowerPort - Bay Point - Simmons - Shield Legal intake form
i just want clarification, because the BCL Lanier intake form is very limited and if i adjust it to match the BCL Simmons cooper criteria, it will be like making a brand new intake form due to the adjustments that need to be made
if it's easier to adapt Bay Point Simmons to what we need for BCL Simmons, go for it
The entire purpose of the BCL simmons is to catch what BCL lanier won't take
lol ok. yay @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y! Sometimes all that's needed is extra eyes. Sometimes coffee. Sometimes booze.
all's good. btw three laps around the outside of the building = 1/2 mile
@Malissa good morning! I was just wondering, for the tvm retainers, which state(s) would the 33% apply to? we got 2 retainers, one that has a split of the standard 40% and the other one is 33%
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Cam's asking about TVM. I know there's the question about the 33%. I'll let him know.
It's done, i just need to upload the retainers, so as soon as we get an answer for it i can proceed accordingly
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M NJ is just for NJ
hi @here! Just checking to see what's needed on campaigns. I checked the spreadsheet and i'm not sure if it's up to date
ok this one - Mormon Victim Abuse - Dolman - HRSC - AWD - Shield Legal is now different.
Mormon Victim Abuse AWD, Dolman, and Anapol Weiss
so HRSC is out on this one and it's Anapol Weiss
retainer should be in the call center channel. let me post it here too hang on a sec
everything else... yeah trying to get those retainers
@here can you guys send me the criteria sheet for one of the Mormon abuse campaigns?
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC I have the updated retainer for MD BG/Kuzyk
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M HIPAA/Retainer for IL YRTC with Baypoint/SGGH
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Can you grant Dwight editing access for this file: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YTR88jMqYGMCLimWygZQJzMVYaJ16VwixgYReUbxshM/edit?gid=685183963#gid=685183963
@here did we close wood pellets and mi pollution?
Good morning! Can i please have some clarification on the Mormon DL Flatirons? I don't really know what "Time Barred" means and I'd like to be able to explain it to the agents in the criteria. I'm also just confused on the whole NON SOL and SOL aspect and how this all ties together
So Time Barred refers to the Statute of Limitations. Let's say we have a claimant in Arizona who was abused 5 years ago but their SOL is 3 years. Usually we'd disqualify them but Dicello is going to take them for review. We have a script to say in that instance.
Cases that fall into the statute of limitations are totally fine. but the ones outside of it will need the special spiel and we'll put them under the NON-SOL status
I just named that one Mormon LDS Abuse OSOL - DL - Flatirons - Shield Legal
we've used the OSOL thing before in our case type names. and left the regular one
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC I sent the retainer and HIPAA for IL YRTC with Baypoint and SGGH right?
For Depo-Provera - Meadow Law - Seeger Weiss - Shield Legal the questions that they want removed will change the criteria am I also changing the criteria?
So do what you gotta do. Then send me over the intake and the updated criteria. I'll send to the firms for approval. 🙂
i sent a very long post in the call center channel with it lol. But the good news is that once they approve it, i've got the retainer and we're good to go!
Sobo sent us the question updates and we got confused, we didn't know criteria was changing
yeah i didn't either. Let me post here what i posted there.
the firms have requested updates to the intake questionnaire for Depo Provera - Meadow/Seeger Weiss. Original request was to clone the intake and criteria from Nielsen/Lanier/Meadow. Please make these changes based on that intake:
• Questions to change ◦ Q8 – Screener How many injections did you receive? Criteria - must be 2 minimum ◦ Q8 – General How many injections did you receive? Criteria - must be 2 minimum • Questions to remove ◦ Q11 – Screener Did the injured party complete a year of Depo-Provera Injections prior to their diagnosis? ◦ Q12 – Screen Age at time of Diagnosis ◦ Q13 – Screener Current age ◦ Q16 – General Age at time of Diagnosis ◦ Q11 – General Did the injured party complete a year of Depo-Provera Injections prior to their diagnosis? ◦ Q17 – General Current age please send me a copy of the intake when ready. [8:35 AM] Malissa Phillips
I've attached criteria, the HIPAA form and Retainer for Depo - Meadow/Seeger Weiss. The updated distro is:
• Standard Meadow Law address for completed packets • Shield Distro • mrammairone@seegerweiss.com • ymartinez@seegerweiss.com (edited)
[8:36 AM] Malissa Phillips
we can't launch until that intake questionnaire is approved though
It looks like they took out the 70 year old age requirement am I removing that as well?
They probably took it out because there's a chance a lot of ladies are over 70 now. Let's leave it out and I'll ask if they want that back in.
hi @here what's still needed for the DL/FI Mormon campaigns?
i didn't see it in the open/closed tracker and Cam is asking for an update
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M I'm looking at the pending new campaigns sheet and you guys have Gaming with Kuzyk on there. Where did you guys find out about that? I've only heard things in passing lol
it's probably going to happen but i don't have details yet
i have no idea honestly, we haven't touched it since we haven't heard anything else back lol
Good morning, I am unable to have access to this file and Sobo is driving. Can I please have access?
I just forwarded your message I think it’s because she isn’t in admin chat
that could be it. Attached a PDF just in case
@here do we have any issues with setups right now?
@Malissa do you think DiCello is going to want us to get these Paraquat's re-signed?
how many have we signed with the older retainer?
and my immediate answer is probably. Usually when someone leaves a firm you gotta take them out of the equation completely.
I'll double check with Abe though but I think we should be prepared to re-sign
Just a heads up, Tony instructed Luis and PD to finalize those Paraquat 13's...
So they are going to get that old retainer. We can go back and get them re-signed if needed.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Can someone send me the intake for DL Paraquat ASAP? Andy's asking
@deleted-U062D2YJ15Y @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Ok i FINALLY heard back from the firms about the Age for Depo - Meadow/Seeger Weiss
let me know if i can help even if it's just providing a funny meme or something
good morning, i didn't receive criteria for trinity private school. i'm also seeing that there's quite a lot of these schools
I've asked Abe for the retainer and any intake docs
cause in the message it said to just clone intake but it didn't say anything about criteria
i was nosey and went through slack channels. i think this is it but i'll get cam to confirm
HOLY CRAP: "It states the school told parents that Muse left for personal reasons and "encouraged families to continue lessons with Muse off campus," and that there was "no cause for concern" in regard to Muse's departure."
"abused at school while student, no lawyer" from Cam
that gif cracks me up every time
yeah everything i see being posted for the marketing side is Texas
Both Cam and I are now bothering DL for the retainer lol
@Malissa Do you know if the page that Cam sent for the TVM criteria is the full page? Are we just changing criteria to what he sent
Yeah the criteria is def changing. Let me take a look at it again. @deleted-U055HQT39PC
Yeah that looks like the full page. We need to make our criteria match that. You could update it and send to cam to make sure.
ok so I'm not a lawyer but it sounds like the implant must have been placed in the last 10 years and revision/removal in the last 4 years
there's also nothing about that 6 month latency from implant to condition
@deleted-U055HQT39PC that's how i'm reading it as well. And i guess no latency period?
My guess is because some women started having issues sooner than 6 months.
let's get the criteria updated and I can send to Cam to look over
there's also no mention of the conditions, like must of had one of these conditions.
@deleted-U055HQT39PC AIGHT! I asked cam: "There's no mention of the 6 month latency period in this criteria - should that stay or be removed on our end? Also, there's no mention of symptoms/conditions/etc. Do those need to stay or should they be removed?"
His reply: "not part of criteria. .... whatever is in their criteria doc is all thats required
original implant 2023 suggested revision 2025
Example Scenarios NON qualifying original implant 2015 revision done 2025
original implant 2019 revision suggested 2025"
good morning @here! What's up with Depo for Meadow/Seeger Weiss?
lol it's ok. we had a lot of stuff happen all at once
yeah i don't even remember everything that happened last week, all i remember is that i hated it and i was stressed lol
good news is that i get to go home today and look forward to baking my very first sourdough loaf
it's about a week and a half, i had to start over because the first time i tried to make it i failed miserably
so right now i think i'm in the process of bulk fermentation???
i got curious: "The "oldest" sourdough starter currently in use was created from 4,500-year-old dormant yeast samples by Seamus Blackley. While not a continuous starter, the yeast was revived from ancient pottery. Other long-standing starters include a 233-year-old San Francisco starter and a 900-year-old Saint Honoratus Wheat starter."
helloo can i please change this format? i just want to delete 2025 so i can expand the line to input the date into MMDDYYYY format
ok @here Gaming with Kuzyk - it's a single case that Kuzyk referred to Meadow
I asked Cam because not remembering was driving me nuts
@Malissa Hi! Quick question. For the very first Mormon abuse that we did, the firm never told us for their criteria that the PNC has to be a minor at the time of abuse, is that still the same or did they want the PNC to be a minor at the time of abuse?
which one was the first one? we've got like 500 now... lol
Mormon Victim Abuse - HRSC - AWD - Shield Legal and Mormon Victim Abuse - Dolman - Anapol Weiss - AWD - Shield Legal
“Victim must be currently under the age of 39 (born no earlier than 1986).”
that's straight from the firm so i guess as long as they aren't over 39...
buenos dias @here! 1st - where are we with Depo Meadow/Seeger Weiss? 2nd - Porto's at my desk
yeah the standard HIPAA used on DL/FI is fine
the Dicello Hipaa Hitech (PDF) is what we usually use for standard dicello retainers, i just found that one in my files, and i figured i would ask about it too
Hey @Malissa! Just for clarification, for the OSOL criteria, Cameron kept it as 2009 or later for both SOL and OSOL. I just wanted to know does he mean 2009 or earlier for OSOL?
Because if a PNC was 17 years old at 2009, born 1992, they would be 33 years old currently, which doesn't really align with the 39year old criteria
@Malissa OUTSIDE SOL
to be honest. i'm struggling to get the ages lined up for in or out of statute lol
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC I bugged Cam. it should be:
OUTSIDE SOL
buenos dias @here! Are we still stuck with a HIPAA for Trinity?
if so, let's use the same hipaa we use on SA campaigns for DL/FI
which i think is the one that's the combo hitech/hipaa
woohooo! let's fire it up! Leadspedia is on. 🙂
do we need anything else for Mormon Abuse Marsh/HRSC or whatever the letters are? @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y
awesome. just checking. I don't know if Monday is working right for me as i didn't see it there.
but it's doing that with stuff i KNOW is there so i think i need to turn it off and on again
i don't remember anything that happened this past week
what's the update on Depo Provera Meadow Seeger Weiss? I don't see it in the pending file or the open/closed tracker
@Malissa Hey! Depo-Provera - Nielsen Law Firm - Lanier Law Firm - Meadow Law - Shield Legal recently closed on March 21st, can we move it anywhere?
remind me if you havent heard by tomorrow AM
looks like we can move those Depo Lanier leads to Depo Meadow/Seeger Weiss
@here where are we with the setup for LDS Marsh/HRSC?
it wasn't showing in LR but i just realized i had a filter on
@Malissa Hey for Firefighting Foam - Douglas London - ML - Shield Legal
Do yo know if there was supposed to be a latency period for diagnosis?
not that i'm aware of @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y. Whatchoo got?
I just want to make sure this is good we had a question from an agent. The only latency is PNC must have developed one of the qualifying injuries at least 6 months after first exposure to the product
i'm pretty sure i had the firm sign off on that criteria. but i've been busy and am easily confused. i'll double check but let's keep signing! 🙂
if sobo says we're good i'm happy
@deleted-U062D2YJ15Y @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M do we have any stucks with campaign setups?
Ok that’s a criteria thing. Andy is getting clarification
lol I’ll go stand in front of him and Sternly tap my watch
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y we've pulled all the retainers for LA County and LA Foster, right?
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y That Paraquat ML/Dl request is top priority at the moment. FYI. Please reopen ASAP
thank you @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. I meant to tell you guys sooner but it looks like i forgot 😞
getting rid of the slashes on the DOB is totally fine
i think they've been cool with the date change previously. let me check
what did we do on the Chowchilla retainer with AWKO and Goldlaw
just need retainer and hipaa for MI YTC Abuse - SGGH - Meadow Law - Shield Legal
@Malissa Hello! Can we get some clarification on this one for the Mormon Abuse SOL? For Idaho it's a little confusing
*Thread Reply:* what's this screenshot from though @deleted-U05496RCQ9M i don't recognize it
*Thread Reply:* ok. where did the ID info come from? Is it in one of the chats? i want to track it down lol
so if the abuse happened after 1989 they need to be 23 or younger?
so if they were abused in 1990 and they were 23 they'd count
so they need to have been under 21 or 23 at the time of abuse?
that's how i'm reading it. Which doc is that from? don't quote me on it yet lol
It's from the criteria that was posted for Mormon DL it said that it needs to be current age
"In Idaho, the statute of limitations for civil actions related to child abuse is generally five years after the child turns 18 or five years after the child discovers or reasonably should have discovered the abuse and its connection to an injury, whichever is later."
• "In Idaho, the statute of limitations for child sexual abuse lawsuits is capped at 23. However, there is a delayed discovery rule that allows survivors to file a suit within five years of discovering the connection between their abuse and resulting damages. "
note, for DL FL LDS abuse, here are updated" in SOL" guidelines. Please ensure these are updated. Again, we will sign out of SOL claimants provided the remaining criteria is met.
ID: 23 (if abuse occurred after 1989), 21 (if abuse occurred before 1989)
So that’s the age they need to be at the time of abuse (or under)
@deleted-U055HQT39PC please contact me if you have any questions about that.States accepted and CURRENT AGE GUIDELINE:CA = 39 or under AZ = 28 or under ID = TBD Utah = TBD WA = 39 or under OR = 39 or under NV = 37 or under CO = TBD IL = 39 or under PA = 27 or under NJ = 54 or under MD = any age (no SOL) TX = 29 or under
then last update was this @Malissa @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U04HFGHL4RW note, for DL FL LDS abuse, here are updated" in SOL" guidelines. Please ensure these are updated. Again, we will sign out of SOL claimants provided the remaining criteria is met.
CA: 39 or under AZ: 29 or under (A.R.S. § 12-514 : 12 years from age of majority, age of majority in AZ is 18) ID: 23 (if abuse occurred after 1989), 21 (if abuse occurred before 1989) UT: 52 and under WA: 20 and under OR: 39 or under NV: 37 or under CO: 23 and under IL: 37 or under PA: 56 or under NJ: 56 or under MD: any age (no SOL)
this kinda lines up with what AWKO gave us for their state SOLs, CA they have to file before their 40 so I don't think it's that the abuse could have occurred at 39
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Just talked to Cam. He's reading it the same way i am. I'm going to email Dicello just to confirm
cause i don't think anyone in 1989 is currently 23
he said he got it straight from Dicello and copied it.
This is what AWKO gave us, makes perfect sense. Some of the stuff lines up with what DiCello gave us. Unless they gave us abuse date sol and current age sol at the same time and mixed it in Open Windows Louisiana – open until June 2027 Maryland – permanent Vermont – permanent
SOL Age Limits California – must file before age 40 Connecticut – must file before age 48 Delaware – born after 1986 Florida – born after July 1988 Kansas – must file before age 31 Maine – born after August 1970 Illinois – born after 1983 Minnesota – born after 1989 Nevada – must file before age 38 New Hampshire – born after 1990 New Jersey – must file before age 55 Oregon – must file before age 40 Pennsylvania – born after 1989 Texas – born after 1992 Virginia – born after 1991 West Virginia – must file before age 36
we'll see what Nico says. Because Cam didn't get confused by it until it dawned on him how it was worded lol
i think a good way to get some of it cleared is asking if they are only taking minors at the time of abuse
@deleted-U055HQT39PC for the LDS campaigns, specifically DL, are we asking about the Boy Scouts?
we did let the agents know that those aren't accepted though
i ask because we might need an intake question just to make sure we don't sign someone who has settled with the boyscouts
Hey @Malissa! Can we get some clarification on the TVM stuff (more sol lol). We're getting a little confused between the 4 year assertion of the claim and the state SOL. Can you explain if possible?
@Malissa yes, my assumption is that instead of 4 years it would default to the state sol. Example: CA SOL is 2 years, but with the criteria they would technically qualify at 4 years
Delayed discovery rule is a little different. It basically lets them suspend the SOL but it would be based on when something started. Like the thing that led to discovering there was an issue. So if you have surgery and they leave a sponge inside. You won't know right away. Years go by and you start hurting only to find an old dirty sponge inside.
The 4 year assertion is basically saying that.... You have pain from the sponge and you know it's the sponge.... you have to 4 years from your assertion of the claim to file.
He kind of explains the 4 year thing here: -revision/removal/recommendation for revision/removal must be within 4 years of the claimant asserting the claim (Ie at the time they are bringing the claim during Intake)
so assertion IS when they call us or when they inquire and we do their intake?
So if i'm calling in, a doc should have told me within the last 4 years to take the sucker out
So the SOL guide that the firms sent does a really good job at stating the Rule of Accrual for product liability
CA is vague as heck tho. let me find the opinion
So just an example for clarification!
I got the mesh implanted in 2016, but my doctor told me in 2017 that the mesh is causing complications so he ordered that i get a surgery in 2 months and I live in california. But I called in today to file a claim, I no longer qualify because it's past four years since I've known about the mesh complications and my surgery since I just called today?
"We conclude that, under the delayed discovery rule, a cause of action accrues and the statute of limitations begins to run when the plaintiff has reason to suspect an injury and some wrongful cause, unless the plaintiff pleads and proves that a reasonable investigation at that time would not have revealed a factual basis for that particular cause of action. In that case, the statute of limitations for that cause of action will be tolled until such time as a reasonable investigation would have revealed its factual basis."
yeah that's out of the statute of limitations
she had reason to suspect in 2017 when the doctor warned her
yeah but if she didn't know she could file a claim until today then she's just dq'd
like if she got it implanted and the doctor said nothing and suddenly today she's really sick and another doctor says why, yeah she'd qualify under delayed discovery but i'd send it for a firm review
she technically had 2 years based on SOL in CA because the Doctor called it out in 2017
but since we're doing assertion of the claim, she's already out
and no rule of accrual because the doctor warned her
it's awful. TBH i remember warnings about TVM a few years ago
the 4 year assertion thing is kind of a good rule to start with. For the most part, the clock starts ticking when they find out there is a problem
@Malissa helloo, we need HIPAA for the retainers that becker sent for michigan
and is this retainer the same one we're using for all the michigan campaigns we're making for them?
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M yes, it's the same retainer. 1 for a minor 1 for an adult. let me ask about that HIPAA.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M from jon: No medical authorizations needed for this with SGGH.
@deleted-U055HQT39PC Jon is going to get us something
@Malissa ALSO sorry, for these, the old michigan yrtc sol was that the pnc needed to be borm 1997 or after, is it the same for all of these as well?
It’s different @deleted-U05496RCQ9M Give me just a minute. :)
Wait no…. 97 is right. Anything older is idol
MI Abuse Criteria @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U04HFGHL4RW @deleted-U05EFH3S2TA @Dustin Surwill NOTE - VSS requested
MI YRTC Facilities and Criteria: Abuse Occurred at One of the Following Michigan YRTC Facilities
Criteria for the MI YRTC cases: • Minor at time of abuse • Sexual abuse • Groping (skin to skin) • Masturbation • Oral Copulation • Penetration • Forcing two minors to perform sexual acts on each other, etc. • PNC was patient / resident of approved facility • PNC was sexually abused by staff member, or another inmate or resident at the facility (ideally some type of notice) • Current Age • Under 18 years old, parent/guardian must sign • 18-27.5 years of age , sign on standard retainer • 27.5-28 years of age, need team to review and decide, in case SOL is approaching • 28 years and older, sign on “inventory retainer” for out of SOL cases
Yeah I’m confused on that. The criteria is copied from meadow
ok so i'm reading the work order from meadow and they have it broken out by being under 41 and over 41
a. clients under 41 years of age b. for clients over 41 years of age c. for clients who were abused only in foster homes (regardless of age) d. for clients who were only abused by another resident/patient/inmate (regardless of age)
how cam posted it in the call center channel:
MI Juv (41 or under) MI Juv OSOL
MI YRTC (41 or under) MI YRTC OSOL
MI Foster (all ages)
It's confusing based on the criteria they gave us for sure.
@Malissa The criteria docs they sent us in that email don't mention an SOL, the only thing I see is the 41 years thing
I didn’t get the email. Can you send it to me?

oh okay so i don't need to worry about it right now lol you scared me
yeah not yet. sorry about that. there's been murmurings about it
this whole michigan thing hasn't been good for my anxiety
no worries. that's what chocolate is for
@here just posted this in the call center channel too:
I just received a message from SGGH regarding their IL YRTC campaign. They have updated criteria.
Please see below for updated criteria regarding acceptable IL YRTC sexual abuse cases: We are only signing cases that involve: • Oral sex • Any form of penetration (digital, vaginal, rectal) • Fondling under the clothing • Incidents where staff forced a minor to engage in sexual acts with another (including both staff-on-patient and patient-on-patient abuse facilitated by staff) Do not sign cases that involve only over-the-clothes groping or fondling, unless the conduct was uniquely excessive or outrageous and occurred on a regular basis. Additionally, please gather more detailed information regarding: • The identity and role of the perpetrator (e.g., therapist, guard, night aide) • The nature of their relationship to the victim
@Malissa hi! for this part of the criteria for mi yrtc, does this mean that a report is necessary not just for inmate on inmate but also for staff?
Inmate on inmate goes in osol it looks like based on what cam sent. We do need to make sure that we are tracking that
yes, but before a report was only necessary if it was another inmate as the abuser
so does that mean a report needs to be made for staff members or counselors?
ok. got it. Yes, a report for staff is ideal. not necessary but preferred if i remember correctly from the previous SGGH YRTC
i totally thought you meant like.... a report from Lawruler
no worries. I'm a blonde under all this hair dye
it's just hard to navigate since there's four campaigns so my brain is all jumbled hahahaha
it's ok. the fact there are so many we're doing at the same time, and they're so similar, is enough to cause headaches
just curious @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y what's up with the AWKO Mormon campaign? What all are we missing?
also the sheet shows MI YTC abuse needing a Hipaa and Retainer. I thought we were good there
I had my hands full yesterday so i wasn't able to update the sheet
i also did just ask in overthecap if we can move chowchilla awko/gold law anywhere! i
i'll just let the agents know for now that they are not able to
@Malissa good morning, am i able to change the date formats to MM/DD/YYYY in the meadow contracts for michigan?
yeah that's fine as long as it looks professional
i am out of my mind, idk why i said good morning like we haven't already spoken
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M How are we doing with all the Michigan campaigns for Meadow and SGGH?
ok cool. i didn't see it in the open closed tracker
@deleted-U055HQT39PC mark says he's waiting for you guys to update it in Monday
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC where did you guys get the criteria for AWKO Mormon?
Christian, Sobo, and I were in a physical meeting with her, Alex, Allan, and Andy
oh cool. do you have it in writing? just wondering because Cam is asking
the first 4 bullet points aren't actual criteria but the rest is
you could just say "The state is super weird" and that would have been fine lol
here's a screenshot from the doc that they gave us for SOLs!
@Malissa they gave us the document with that spacing at the end lol
yeah they're lawyers not artists
They're the people that paid me in college to fix/write their papers probably
also another issue, if i make the cover letter 11.5pt, i can't move the line for signature because it is part of their formatting. so if i move it, the lawfirm logo also moves
I think the cover letter is the biggest issue she's seeing?
*Thread Reply:* i think this looks very nice @deleted-U055HQT39PC
*Thread Reply:* but how does it look filled out? 😕
fyi, the michigan campaigns are high priority as the leads go live tomorrow. Mark will be available tonight for whatever is needed
so we tested it and this is already with the font smaller 11.5pt and the date will not be uniform
Yeah that looks pretty good. Let’s send it out
Exactly. I think the only options are to move it or accept it
Thank you. I was saying there next request is going to be a bowl of boiling water with ice cubes but the ice can't get all tiny and melt
“We need this form translated into old Klingon. Not new Klingon”
“And in an actual dialect so no google translate”
lmao yeah 💯 I think they'll be good with it. Or at least accept that we're not using mail merge for our e-Signs and call it a day
@Malissa Good morning! I just realized that in the Mormon SOLs for AWKO we weren't given an SOL for Indiana
i noticed that yesterday but thought i was just missing it because of fonts
i mean... it's not like those two states are important
I kid i kid. Emailed Mary and cc'd you @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
hello again! is Firefighting Foam 2 - VAM Law - ELG - Meadow Law - Shield Legal still paused? @Malissa
just wondering because an agent asked about it and there was no retainer, i tried to go back to a conversation we had about it cause i vaguely remember but couldn't find it on slack lol
FYI I talked to Jon Becker last night. He said that next time we get any weird push back on fonts or Size or something insignificant to let him know asap
Thank you all for your hard work on getting that letter done. @here
If it gets that granular again tho Jon will help us before it gets silly
@here updated SOL from AWKO. Sunnie might have already updated everything lol
@Malissa Good morning! For Firefighting Foam 2 - VAM Law - ELG - Meadow Law - Shield Legal, since it's paused, can leads be transferred to Firefighting Foam - ELG - ML - Shield Legal at all?
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M Yes, transfer to ELG Meadow
@Malissa hellooo, do you have any knowledge about the campaign that BCL is talking about? they have a houston cluster thing going on??
this one
@Malissa Hey, so it looks like in the updated list for San Diego, Phoenix House Academy is no longer there, is that no longer a qualified facility? also this is for SGGH, correct? cause we have 2 san diego campaigns.
Yeah that’s SGGH - AWD. That’s the updated list so if it’s not on there, they don’t want it now.
Hey @Malissa Is AWKO saying anything bout our state SOLs? Alex Cuozo is telling Alexia that the firm is questioning why we are signing things up OSOL. Issue is Utah, the doc we got says Utah must file before 22, PNC just turned 21. Not sure what's happening here
i haven't heard anything @deleted-U055HQT39PC. Is there something else that makes that PNC OSOL?
Everything on our end is right. AS far as we know anyway. Alex has asked the firm for clarification
Ok cool. Not sure what is going on there but Lexi told me Alex was talking to her about it
@Malissa Hi!! Quick question for the Bard criteria, it states the three brands and then says unsure is acceptable. Does that mean unsure like they have no idea what it is whether it's one of the three or any other port system that isn't the three and it's okay to accept or unsure JUST between the three brands is okay?
If they don't know the brand but know details like it was surgically implanted under the skin and it wasn't a urinary catheter, that's fine. Basically if they aren't sure but all the other criteria is met
so even if they have no idea what it is, it's fine and sign them as long as all criteria is met
right. If they say "i don't know. it was put in my urethra" that's a decline
but if they say "i'm not sure. it was surgically implanted in my chest" sign em
also for AFFF-PFAS do we care about the latency when it comes to diagnosis and first exposure?
because in the original post for the campaign build it said it's the same criteria as the PFAS except that it needs to be a set list of bases. the criteria for the one we cloned disqualifies them if the PNC has a known exposure but was diagnosed LESS THAN MINIMUM LATENCY after the first exposure, but to my understanding, on the firm reviews, they've been accepting them regardless of the latency
so are we going to qualify based of off latency as well or does it not matter?
just found this in the baypoint criteria:
Minimum Latency Periods: Between First Exposure to Diagnosis • Kidney Cancer: 15 years, but can be less for aggressive cancer types • Testicular Cancer: 15 years, but can be less for aggressive cancer types • Thyroid Disease: 2 years • Ulcerative Colitis: 2 years • Bladder Cancer: 4 years • Breast Cancer: MALE ONLY 15 years • Pancreatic Cancer: 10 years • Prostate Cancer: 15 years, but can be less for aggressive cancer types • Leukemia: 5 years • Multiple Myeloma: 5 years • Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma: 10 years Thyroid Cancer: 5 years
for DL:
Minimum Latency Periods: Between First Exposure to Diagnosis • Kidney Cancer 15 years, but can be less for aggressive cancer types • Testicular Cancer 15 years, but can be less for aggressive cancer types • Ulcerative Colitis 2 years • Liver Cancer 12 years Thyroid Cancer 5 years
and cam said it was the same criteria as PFAS and the only thing that changed was that it needs to be in one of the bases listed. he never said which pfas to clone so we cloned PFAS - Levinson (TC/MC) - ELG - Shield Legal because it's the most recent and it's open lol
and on that one in the disqualify, it disqualifies them based off of if they were less than the latency
but Lexi told me the firm has been taking them regardless of the latency
wait... y'all i'm mentally exhausted. Yes, some of gone to firm review because of the latency
lol I sent DL one to review that had a minimum latency period of 5 years and the PNC was 4 years and 3 months. They took it
Worst case we have them review it. Obviously if a latency period is 10 years and they've got it in 2, that's probably something else going on
but if it's like a year, yeah we can have the firm review it. they'll probably take it
okay so let's just keep that they need to be greater than or equal to the latency lol
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Please add Boysville to the approved MI JDC facilities list per Jon Becker
@here did you guys get a special retainer to use for AWKO OSOL? i'm just double checking.
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Ok, y'all. I'm going to remind people to follow process but if anyone sends you a message about a campaign setup, change, etc. please alert me right away. I'll remind everyone the process is that everything goes through the call center channel. If we deviate from that, things will break.
I have so many groups and channels but i might put something together tomorrow for key players and I'll remind them of the process and create a space for Sales Ops updates or something.
hi @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y where are we with setup for DL/Flatirons Porterville?
we finished bard yesterday, waiting on the LR text automation and brittany
fingers crossed no agents bother me today so i can get them all done
just make an angry face all day and people will leave you alone
oh trust me they don't care, we literally have 3 signs at the corner saying "go see your supervisor" and it is always ignored
@Malissa do we have a HIPAA for AFFF ELG or are we good to move forward as is?
for Ye? Yeah we can use the standard ELG HIPAA for that one
@Malissa good morning, for boysville in michigan, there's quite a few of them. are we targeting a specific one or just any of them in michigan?
They said to add Boysville. How many locations are there? I’m willing to bet it’s all of them but can confirm.
@Malissa i'm so sorry, mark just let me know you're at the doctor's office, but for when you're back! So for our San Bernardino and SD cases, SGGH and the most recent build DL - Flats, we have the criteria saying that the abuse must have occurred in 2009 or later and they need to currently be 39 or younger to qualify. The math isn't exactly adding up. cause someone that's 39 currently would have been born in 1986, but in 2009 they would have been 23 years old. For me the math that would make sense would be they need to be 33 or younger currently to qualify
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M i need food to process this lol. had to fast
the weird thing is, without food it makes sense
ok @deleted-U05496RCQ9M Under CA Civ Pro Code § 340.1, childhood victims of sexual assault have until their 40th birthday, or within 5 years of the discovery of the abuse, to file a civil lawsuit. If the childhood abuse was covered up, victims may have the right to claim treble damages in their claim.
yeah it's confusing the hell out of everyone because we don't know where 2009 came from. From what we understood, the 2009 or later thing was a chowchilla sol that came from acts
39 or younger makes sense, but 2009 or later for abuse occurring doesn't
have we encountered any 39 yros claiming abuse as a minor in 2009?
yeah lol so far the whole 2009 or later for abuse and currently 39 or younger is tripping people up lol
I have cookies at my desk @here
hi @here where are we on all the setups i sent yesterday?
porterville is done, waiting on brittany san bernardino needs retainer and clarification on the sol san diego needs retainer and clarification on the sol afff pfas needs retainer firefighting foam elg setup is done waiting on lr text automation and mark sextortion awd is being worked on alameda is also being worked on kanakuk is being worked on Santa clara is pending Sextortion W&S is pending
ok @here update on AFFF PFAS - It's Meadow Douglas London
i just posted the retainer and hipaa and all that too
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC eta on Santa Clara, Kanakuk and Alameda?
anything keeping it from being sooner? just asking before cam asks why lol
i'll work on them first thing tomorrow, i'll try and have it done by midday
question, for MI Juvenile hall SGGH, can we take facilities that aren't listed or whatever is on the list is the set list?
for the life of me i can't remember if i've asked this before
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M I remember Becker saying something about a list they were given
He was saying they were targeting different facilities than DL. I think they’re just going with that list
what's happening with PD is if it's not on the list but a valid case, I'm emailing the firms to approve or deny
They're pretty quick to respond. As they approve them, we can update the list
it sounds like they have a list of ones NOT to use and are updating as we go lol
@here important question! Have i sent MI Clergy to the call center channel yet?
hiii @Malissa can we have some help on the sol regarding Video Gaming Sextortion for Anapol - AWD?
it states, "For cases where the person is 18 years of age or older OR where person resides in Florida, marketer will immediately send these cases to firm with notation of potential SOL issue."
we asked about this a few days ago and this was cam's response, "We are taking Florida cases, but Florida does not have minor tolling, so we want to know if a case is from Florida so we can look at the SOL as quickly as possible. For the rest of states, if client is 17 or younger at time of signing, minor tolling will likely apply so there is not an SOL concern." we kind of just need help understanding it and if we're sending it for firm review
does this mean that if the pnc is currently 18 or older or resides in florida, we have to send it for firm review?
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M I’ve been a little out of the loop on this one. Not too bad but I gotta piece a lot together. I’m at the doctor right now and will be back in a bit
OOOOOH ok basically if they're 18 or older or in florida, they need to be reviewed by the firm
makes way more sense on a computer screen lol
so if they're signing for themselves cause they're an adult now or if they reside in florida, it needs to be firm review?
hello again! @Malissa can i please change the date formatting for the AFFF PFAS Douglas Meadow retainer to reflect MM/DD/YYYY and also make the name field longer so the name of the client fits properly?
yes. it's the same retainer as the AFFF Douglas London/Meadow so whatever you had to do with that one is fine to do with this one
@Malissa hallo i updated the pending new campaigns sheet for what we need for each campaign!
i'm so happy these are almost done, i was so stressed
@here emailed a present. Christian, I don’t have your email on my phone so make sure they share!
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y I posted these to the call center channel but here they are. Use the regular/standard DL/Flatirons HIPAA we use with other SA cases of theirs
i have no updates on the AWD Video Gaming sextortion stuff yet
Santa Clara County Juv Hall - DL - Flatirons - Shield Legal is done and opened
good morning @Malissa! I updated the pending campaigns spreadsheet, the only thing we really need/waiting on are small things plus the Retainer & Hipaa for Sextortion campaign from AWD and Anapol
i've asked Cam for that @deleted-U05496RCQ9M and he doesn't have it yet
thank you! that's really the only one we're waiting to finish
@Malissa for the retainers for SGGH Meadow, where in the retainer do they want those lines?
Let’s look at some other retainers and see where they have them. Like maybe one of the San Bernardino ones with AWD
on the michigan retainers they don't really have a spot for them so i'm confused
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M I’ll check it out. Just need a bit. :)
I think that looks fine. Let me send it to Kasia and see if we can get one for meadow
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M SGGH loves it. Working on meadow
@Malissa Tony told me you have a list of categories for the cases can you share that with me so I can make sure its up to date. He told me David shared one with you?
YAY! And it's a real one too! Not a screenshot of a screenshot of a screenshot. Thank you @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y!
lol i love how people share super pixelated ones like they're new.
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M just fyi for that west Virginia campaign. They want us to get all of the other information that is normal but this is all they need for criteria.
fyi @here that BG campaign is hot. Andy wants to get it started as soon as we can
I started working on it as soon as i got here, i'll have it done as fast as i can.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M here's the signature for Rick Meadow
so it looks like there's 2 other attorneys included in the retainer for West Virginia Hernia Repair. Do they need to be included in the naming convention? @Malissa
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M I just put that update in the call center channel :). Let me paste here
“second, we need to add Calwell Luce di Trapano PLLC and Salango Law PLLC, to the firms as co-counsel.”
Of course the names are long lol
@Malissa Cam is saying the Alameda criteria is incorrect? There is no inmate on inmate abuse
We were directed to copy the san bernardino criteria and in that criteria it allowed inmate on inmate abuse also
Alameda County Juv Clone criteria/intake from San Bernardino but use Alameda facilites: CAMP WILMONT SWEENEY, Juvenile Justice Center, Alameda Juvenile Detention Currently 39 or younger (no OSOL cases accepted)
lol perrrrrfect well we updated the criteria to not include inmate on inmate, maybe he just forgot that SB had that included
yeah... let's make sure it shouldn't be in SB tho.
The original San bernardino we cloned from is the SGGH criteria and they allowed inmate on inmate abuse
@Malissa for MI YRTC can we take facilities that aren't in the list or should we send for firm?
We've been sending to the firm for review. But if you have a list of known facilities that aren't in the criteria, i could go ahead and share it and see if they want us to add them
thank you, i don't quite have a set list, the agents just kind of ask as we go
@Malissa are we ok with those SGGH and Meadow signatures for the updated retainer?
let's rock and roll with it. Mark has the letter set up too i believe
hi @here just a heads up, i'm WFH today. so if you come looking for me, you'll have to hop in a car lol.
Which campaign did we use to clone the criteria and intake for Wright & Schulte sextortion? i can't remember. Bieber right?
@here i brought in some homemade cookies. Sea Salt Chocolate Chip.
i don't see the status of it having leadspedia open so i am not too sure
Good morning @Malissa! I updated the Pending Campaigns Spreadsheet for your reference!
thank you @deleted-U05496RCQ9M! Ireached out to wright and schulte again
Hey @Malissa Good morning. I've received some feedback regarding the Chowchilla DL Flatirons retainer PNC refused to sign because the contract only mentions Juvenile facilities
Not sure if DL will do anything about it but I thought I'd pass that feedback along
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Chowchilla isn't a juv facility... are we using the right retainer?
the mormon retainers for W&S that's for both IN SOL and OSOL, yeah?
I think it’s section 14 or something on the last page
okay, i just wanted to make sure, i didn't want the AWKO mishap to happen again lol
i asked the firm just to be sure
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M yes it's good for SOL and OSOL
@Malissa Hey, IL BG Walsh are we allowed to switch to BG bay point
like... have we signed them or is it just switching leads?
ok i found what Cam said back in february: Pull retainer for BG/Walsh - IL Juv Hall, move open leads to open BG campaign
@here good morning all! I noticed that the live notification for West VA Hernia repair didn't come through until yesterday. What was the hold up with that one? Reporting and automations?
i didn't get to update the checklist yesterday, but that campaign should be open
I'm also gonna make a new checklist, this one looks a little janky lol
yeah i'm just trying to figure out why it didn't open sooner since the slack notification was yesterday.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M and @deleted-U055HQT39PC did i not post these retainers yesterday?
Mormon Victim Abuse - WS - WS - Shield Legal Mormon Victim Abuse OSOL - WS - WS - Shield Legal
Just in case:
Hey @Malissa here's that new PM tracker for the new campaigns we have if you wanna look at it Campaign Stats
There's separate tabs for each, in process, opened, and on hold!
hi @Malissa! for Gaming Addiction 2 - AWKO - Bradley Grombacher - Shield Legal, we have the age range around 9-28 but in the email it only says not currently older than 28. do we wanna keep 9-28 or are we just going to take 28 and under?
I'd do 28 and under. gotta get those 4 year olds addicted to fisher price
Not currently older than 28 if we want to copy it exactly
which eliminates like all people who were addicted to original NES
• Sought medical care or counseling for the adverse effects of Video Game Addiction OR • Has Possession of records reflecting education disruption/harm (dropout/IEP/504) ^ i think that's gonna come into play.
i look at it and i'm like "well i'm too old" 😂
i don't know what our rules are on employees joining a tort unfortunately
to my understanding we've had a few employees join, especially for intuit and other cases so i think it counts?
cause they also sent us a table of all the games you can find in the microsoft database
yeah they're saying they want the people to play any of the games AND any or all of the microsoft/xbox games
so they’re not limited to just Fortnite, Minecraft, and Roblox, they can also play any of the microsoft/xbox games or do they need to play any of those 3 AND any of the microsoft/xbox games?
let me double check my emails. that one was forwarded to me but i might have more
i think it's the formatting that's making it weird
same. we aren't starting this yet so we can revisit with fresh eyes.
Okay good i'll stop looking at it for today hahaha
and just to make sure this is just revised criteria for Gaming Addiction 2 - AWKO - Grombacher right?
so.... i think one thing we've got to decide is if we are just going to revise the criteria or start a #3
yeah it's just such a big addition. like... skyrim? how can anyone be addicted to Skyrim... or Fallout...or Halo... 😅
okay ngl... when skyrim first came out i was big addicted HAHAHA
@here before i forget! Next week, i'll be on PTO from the 11th to the 16th. I'll kinda be available on the 11th and 16th but the other days i'll be out of pocket.
We are starting to get SOME movement on AWD Sextortion
There are going to be 2 campaigns - one with Anapol Weiss and one with Cooper Masterman PLLC
yeah don't do anything with that one yet. i'm still working on getting details and retainers and all that. 🙂
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Do you guys have a copy of the criteria for the AWD Sextortion campaign?
cool. Thank you @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. i wanted to see if we had Roblox called out a lot in it lol
Hey @Malissa did we ever get any clarification on the Florida statute they wanted to put in place? I'm still a little confused about it. Are they saying that if the PNC is currently 18 or older signing for themselves or currently living in florida, we need to send it for firm?
yeah they want to know about it right away so we'll do as a firm reviw
Good morning! I noticed that for the AFFF PFAS Military Base Exposure - Meadow Law - Douglas London - Shield Legal Criteria, we weren't given a death sol or anything like that, does the pnc need to be alive or does it follow standard state death sol? @Malissa
for all our firefighting foam campaigns we always use standard sol for death per state
Meadow uses our standard so should be the same. Greg could confirm tho
I am making my house clean so my dog sitter doesn’t judge me 😅
lol I’d use standard but yeah bug Greg to be 100%
Question for you @Malissa, we recently opened a KY organ donor lawsuit, but the firm never gave us an SOL in terms of deceased PNCs in their criteria. Do you think we can get one, or find out if we need one? Thank you!
I don’t think so, Tony asked Cam. Sounds like there isn’t one at the moment
@here how are we doing with the setup for MI Abuse Campaigns with Ghozland?
Only one that should be open right now is DL/Flatirons I think. And it only has like 5 or 6 signups left
Sorry that was only for the screeners not the closers. Thank you
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Can you double check this info and make sure it gels with our current AWKO Gaming Addiction criteria?
"Our criteria has changed several times so just to make sure we are on the same page, here is what we are currently using:

this is for Gaming Addiction 3 - AWKO - Bradley Grombacher - Shield Legal
@deleted-U055HQT39PC yeah and what i posted they sent yesterday. 😬🫠
andy replied with "perfect" so.... i'm guessing we just need to add the enhanced death part
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M did you guys get the docs for AWD - Cooper Masterman Video Gaming Sextortion?
How are we with The Anapol Weiss - AWD sextortion campaign?
like are all the tests sent and all that? yes i looked in notion just want to double check
FYI @here

Distro: Shield AWD Pending Cooper Masterman
Pending Docs. Will post shortly.
i just posted that in the call center channel
do you guys have a copy of the long form questionnaire for the AWD Roblox campaigns? like one we've entered into LR?
Sorry, I'm working on this right now and Sobo is in a meeting
no worries. sometimes @ here doesn't work at all lol
Yeah, I was just working on the campaign, I didn't see your message
@Malissa heyoo what is the status on MI Clergy Abuse - SGGH - Meadow Law - Shield Legal
So Jon @ Meadow promised me something on it next week
he also said that he's got stuff for us for Arizona if you believe it
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M I've gotten the distro email for cooper masterman. Is there anything else we need for that?
hi @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Where are we with this Campaign: Firms: SGGH/Meadow Law Campaign: Depo Provera Cap: 38
it looks like it's done, just waiting on brittany's part
ok, i'll ping her on that. Hoping to get that one done ASAP
@Malissa Becker and Alex keep asking when Kansas is going to be done. We haven't got anything from that other than what I sent you
fyi @here i have brookies (Brownie Cookie hybrid) at my desk
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M here are the signatures for the Sextortion Campaign with SGGH, Meadow, and Ghozland that i'm about to send over
fyi @deleted-U05496RCQ9M and @deleted-U055HQT39PC, The Ghozland Sextortion is going to be a rush
@Malissa Good morning! We're all done with VG Sextortion for Ghozland, just waiting on Brittany's part!
@deleted-U055HQT39PC and @deleted-U05496RCQ9M we still have the retainer for AFFF Carson/ELG right?
@deleted-U055HQT39PC I have not been told that we are splitting it
awesome. Yeah it's old but it's about to come back to life
Before i tell Andy that yes, we still have that retainer, can you double check?
Did we already build out the Kansas abuse intake questionnaire and secondary?
I attached the intake questionnaire I would like to use in case you don’t already have it.
For VSS secondary interviews, we need to clone the Michigan JDC and Michigan YRTC exactly like they are now for Kansas JDC and YRTC.
I plan to launch Kansas early next week.
this is what Becker sent me. it looks like he's under the impression that this is two case types. he's asking for two different VSS case types. i'm just going to make one intake and two vss secs for now
@deleted-U055HQT39PC i split them
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M are we waiting on anything for Ghozland MI Abuse?
i meant sextortion. Sorry i've been in report land and MI campaign land all day
@Malissa can we make sure bencrumpcases is on every new case setup for BCL cases? It looks like a good amount never went to BCL
Please I’m in her office right now she’s not happy. Hopefully integrations can help them out
ok, Nick M is going to go in and make sure it's added. I'm sending it to him now and i'll include you.
Hi @Malissa Do we know what the actual name for AFG law firm is? I need it for the criteria (:
we've used just AFG on previous criteria sheets
I only ask because we started writing the full name out for all attorneys when we started with the consent forms since it was necessary to do so we've been using the same format
sorry i've been slow on these, i'm the only one working on them currently and my surgery hand is hurting a lot lol
it's ok! Don't overdo it with your surgery hand
@here Just making sure you guys got this: The retainer previously sent is for injured parties who are adults. I’m attaching the retainer to use if the injured party is a minor.
Please note, there are two highlighted areas on the 1st page. One for the name of the minor and the second for the name of the parent/guardian.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Can you send me a copy of the retainer we're using for PFAS ELG/Levinson?
Thank you @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y!
hi @here I think the new PFAS Levinson is supposed to be ELG - Levinson (TC). noticed that didn't get added in LR.
renaming it this way AFFF PFAS Military Base Exposure - ELG - Levinson - TC - Shield Legal
@Malissa Hey that AFFF pfas elg carson it says to use the old retainer but that one has a hippa attached the one you sent does not are we using the old hippa from the old contract or should we use the elg hippa we have
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y the Retainer part looks the same. I couldn't find the HIPAA. Use the one you guys got.
@here any objections to turning AFFF/PFAS carson on?
hi @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y. Happy Monday! Any updates on the AFG/SGGH/Meadow Michigan campaigns?
Good morning, our parts on those are done, just waiting for Brittany's
ok, i'll ping her and see if she can do that after we open.
i think the firms are calling it sex abuse tho since it's video taping
the retainer is for sex abuse and it's for NY so it's 33% and not 60/40 just a heads up
we got some time so if they realize they made a mistake we can fix it lol
ok so this is in new york so that makes sense, they were putting cameras in bathrooms
But not as nasty as the bathroom i saw in a Wendy's in backwoods Mississippi
That's all they've given me so far @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/long-island-sleep-center-hidden-cameras-bathroom/
if you guys can, send me the intake and i'll send it to the firm for review
we'll use what we have. they can make adjustments as needed. thank you @Malissa
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Can you guys send me the intake, criteria, and retainer/hipaa for NEC - Legafi?
I'm meeting with them tomorrow and i want to make sure everything is current.
good morning @Malissa! have you gotten anything regarding MI Clergy Abuse - SGGH - Meadow Law - Shield Legal?
Not yet. I was going to bug Becker about it. He made promises of Arizona again yesterday
At the rate they're going with Arizona abuse, it's going to get sold to Utah.
Hockey joke.
Yeah it's currently playing at a high school ice rink
RIP Phoenix/Arizona Coyotes.
Hi @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M Messaging you guys here before i post in the call center. I've got a rush request from Cam.
"Please have Anthony get an intake built out ASAP for me. Build the intake from the TVM campaign, but obviously change to Hernia Mesh. When intake is done please have him get me a test intake asap
Retainer to come

for the rush AFFF PFAS Military bases, are we using the same retainer since they're all levinson - elg?
OKAY i'm finally done with the AFFF stuff so i can focus on this other one. for the hernia mesh, do we have lawfirm names and all that yet? just so i can start building it!
Campaign: Hernia Mesh Firms: Dampier/Levin Papantonio Cap: 85
@Malissa good morning! can we move NEC DL Flats anywhere yet?
okayy, thank you. we ask cause the agents are getting leads for them
They really shouldn't get anything new. 😕 I'll see what's up. But yeah, nothing yet
Hey, @Malissa , we're getting some confusion in regards to the MI Foster care criteria, specifically this part: ◦ IF PNC is ONLY able to provide the LAST NAME of their Foster Parent(s), PNC MUST PROVIDE FIRST/LAST NAME of their abuser(s) ◦ IF PNC is ONLY able to provide the FIRST/LAST NAME of abuser(s), PNC MUST PROVIDE FULL NAME of their Foster Parent(s) it looks like they're contradicting each other. does this mean that If the client only has a partial name for one person (like just a last name for their foster parent), then we need the full name (first + last) of the other person (like their abuser)?
we're interpreting it as • If ONLY able to provide the LAST NAME of their foster parent(s), MUST PROVIDE FIRST or LAST NAME of abuser(s) • If ONLY able to provide the FIRST or LAST NAME of abuser(s), MUST PROVIDE FULL NAME of their foster parent(s) which is a bit confusing
I would interpret it the same way.
If the foster parent is Mr. Smith, they'd have to know they were abused by Joe Schmoe If the abuser is Tommy, they'd have to know their foster parent/parents are Jane and Joe Smith
okay so If the client only has a partial name for one person (like just a last name for their foster parent or abuser) Then we need the full name (first + last) of the other person (foster parent or abuser).
I'd be willing to bet it's because certain foster parents are associated with certain abusers
Like Ms Marsha was my foster and Mr Joe abused me?
So if they know Marsha Smith but only know Joe as Joe, that works
But if it's like my foster was Marsha and my Abuser was Bob... that's probably a DQ
but if they have either first or last name for foster or abuser they MUST have a full name for foster or abuser
what i would do with the foster parent is send for a firm review if they don't remember the last name or only remember a last initial
IF PNC is ONLY able to provide the LAST NAME of their Foster Parent( <- why i say that
How does this sound: • If ONLY able to provide the FIRST or LAST NAME of their foster parent(s), MUST PROVIDE FULL NAME of abuser(s) • If ONLY able to provide the FIRST or LAST NAME of abuser(s), MUST PROVIDE FULL NAME of their foster parent(s)
make it this and we're good: If ONLY able to provide the LAST NAME of their foster parent(s),
if they only have first name but full name of abuser we could send for firm review
• If ONLY able to provide the LAST NAME of their foster parent(s), MUST PROVIDE FULL NAME of abuser(s) • If ONLY able to provide the FIRST or LAST NAME of abuser(s), MUST PROVIDE FULL NAME of their foster parent(s) • If ONLY able to provide the FIRST NAME of foster parent(s), BUT ABLE TO PROVIDE FULL NAME of their abuser, SEND FOR FIRM
maybe run the firm review one by someone else and see if that's cool. i don't know how often it comes up tho
okay, should we say seek supervisor approval? so we can ask tony first?
Hey hey @Malissa we have pending flags that can go final for Chowchilla DL, can lexi finalize them or was it a hard cap?
Let’s hold off today. I’ll review the updated financials and see if we have room or if anyone got declined
NEC DL/Flatirons is done. It’s a hard cap with no room. FYI
Remind me about chowchilla in the morning too
@deleted-U055HQT39PC did you get cam that hernia mesh test?
@Malissa are we sure that these aren't in our count already for chowchilla? are you looking at esigns or finals?
tony is having me ask, he's wanting to finalize them because they are already signed.
I’m looking at e-signs. If they’re in E-sign they’re good to finalize
If they’re like something we just got the ok to sign we can’t
Then I’ve counted them and they’re good to finalize
Yeah before we do anything let’s make sure lol
@here okay y'all. Tony came by and will probably tell you guys thesame thing. My counts include everything that has Signed e-Sign in its name. So that includes all the PD statuses
@here for Cooper Masterman AWD VG Sextortion, we're getting a complaint about this phrase being used in intake: Can Articulate WITH SPECIFICITY Physical or Emotional Changes Since the Abuse That Have Impacted Life
Hey Malissa, is this good for the criteria? just wanted to make sure since we kind of got a short one
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M it is a short one. I asked the firm if there's anything else to add and i"m just waiting to hear back.
thank god this isn't a rush, i'm tired of all the rush campaigns that happened this week lol
I am about to hit you guys with some new campaigns. Sobo knows.
@Malissa For the Dr. Aejaz retainer, should i put the SGGH signature on there?
outside of the MI abuse campaigns with Meadow, have we done that on other campaigns?
FYI i'm at home today. Husband brought home a bug
Heyooo, I'm about to map the retainer to the campaign, should I put the signature on there? @Malissa
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M have we done that on all their retainers or just MI?
Imma say no. They didn't request that. This is a test campaign Parker is doing
yeah and we have to get every retainer signed again lol, but hopefully not
hey @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y - did we pull the retainer for AFFF 2 Vam? I could have sworn we did
No it's open, we were told not to close it. Just that it was getting paused
we had a signup a day or two ago which is why i asked
Yeah it got paused on Jan 29th, updated 5/19 that leads could be moved to Firefighting Foam - ELG - ML - Shield Legal
not my call sadly. I'm making a list of campaigns that i think should be closed.
yeah i just looked for every chat we had lol we just had it as paused on leadspedia
with the dialer calling old leads, it ,might create some issues with campaigns that shouldn't get anything
yeah i think that was fine when it was all manual. 😅
ok, well Cam thinks PA is still open and there was a think with all that.soo... i'm deferring to greg
it's still open on the open closed tracker and wanted to check
i just want to make sure things don't get called
OH WAIT MALISSA, THE REASON WHY IT'S STILL OPEN
yeah that was weird i was like i guess i forgot to hit closed? lol but it looked weird since it was all the way from January then i checked and the retainer was still in there so i did some digging and found that message from cam
eh i want that thing closed lol. I'll let you know what Cam says
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
FYI
RUSH New Campaign! Campaign: Chowchilla Firm: Meadow/SGGH Cap: 60
Retainer and HIPAA pending
Distro: Meadow SGGH** (emailed Amanda. pending) Shield
VSS - YES
Criteria: • Not currently represented by another attorney/firm for this matter [1:02 PM] Malissa Phillips
• Never been represented by another attorney/firm for this matter • Must be female • Must have been incarcerated at either ◦ Chowchilla Women's Facility ◦ CIW - California Institute for Women in Chino • Must have been sexually abused ◦ Penetration ◦ Oral copulation ◦ Masturbation ◦ groping (skin to skin) • Sexual abuse occurred in 2009 or later • At least 1 of the following MUST be true ◦ Can provide the full last name of the abuser ◦ Can recognize a picture of the abuser ◦ Would recognize the name of the abuser if they heard it ◦ Filed a report at the time of the abuse AND can provide a detailed description of the abuser.
I've been promised the retainer in the next 30 min
@Malissa hey malissa, i just wanted to clear somethings up about the chowchilla intake and criteria
@Malissa they gave us an intake form that doesn't really match the criteria provided and this part of the criteria confuses me a bit: ◦ Filed a report at the time of the abuse AND can provide a detailed description of the abuser. Do we know why is it that only filing a report requires a detailed description? For every single SA campaign that we have, it's always required that regardless of how they can identify their abuser that they MUST provide a detailed description
also it's just officers, guards, or wardens as the abusers right? it wasn't in their criteria
A big problem is Jon didn’t send me what he sent you guys for the intake. I need to get onto him about that.
Can you send me what you got from him @deleted-U05496RCQ9M ?
yeah i didn't even know we had a template until after i made the whole thing already and sobo texted me last night and said they provided one
so it doesn't exactly match what they provided you for the criteria and the criteria is mildly confusing
bigly the best. the most beautiful communication. they come to me with tears in their eyes saying how amazing it is. did you know that? thank you for your attention to this matter
so hopefully we can actually get clarification from them about their criteria
@deleted-U055HQT39PC Can we pause intakes for AFFF-PFAS DL/Flatirons for a bit?
*Thread Reply:* @deleted-U055HQT39PC just checking in on this
*Thread Reply:* can we pause? lol is that a question or a statement
*Thread Reply:* lol. I'm wondering if it's doable. Like we don't want to pull the retainer, we just don't want to sign any more for a bit while some info gets worked out with the firm.
*Thread Reply:* We can get it out of the dialer for now. we are focused on the other campaigns getting leads
*Thread Reply:* for sure. yeah, let's just take it out of the dialer for a bit so we don't call anyone else.
*Thread Reply:* If we were doing it all manually like the old days i wouldn't worry so much. but since it calls people... lol
*Thread Reply:* also @deleted-U055HQT39PC Can we do the same with San Bernardino OSOL AWD?
*Thread Reply:* I don't think it got "paused."
*Thread Reply:* if it did, i don't want the dialer to randomly call people lol
update from becker @deleted-U05496RCQ9M "I defer to the Shield team on if only Chowchilla or Chowchilla and CIW. Let’s do what everyone else is doing."
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M how are we doing with Chowchilla for Meadow?
i'm working on it right now, i'm adding a lot of stuff back that was removed!
i'm also training someone in our department at the same time lol
All done with Chowchilla Womens Prison Abuse - Meadow - SGGH - Shield Legal!
It's now just Mark's stuff and Brittany's reports we're waiting on to open the campaign!
Ok, i'll let Brittany know we need to get it open asap
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y FYI that chowchilla campaign is live
AWD Chowchilla is being paused so leads won't be coming in. We've only got 29 left but hopefully the re-up the budget
i'm going to make it a point to communicate with you guys about what's happening on the shield side
it's always something that can improve no matter where you are and no matter what it is
Hi! Can the PFAS ELG Levinson SA that just got closed be moved anywhere? @Malissa
Cam didn't say so I'll ask. It might be tomorrow before i have an update
Just confirming that PFAS TC - SA is closed. One was signed a couple of hours after the retainer was pulled.
Lead 804669 is the one that signed after it was pulled
It was signed prior to closing but wasn't finalized by PD until 1:22
cam didn't say it was a hard stop.... and i don't think i'm a monster lol.
there are so many PFAS levinsons with alphabet soup
no i get it, i thought i didn't cancel all the contracts and panicked
all the TC AB CD EF GH campaigns out there.... it's all good
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y Ok... annoying question....
How big of a deal are the criteria changes here for AWKO Video Gaming Addiction? If it's not that bad, i can post in the call center channel to make it official.
Please see the below criteria update for the VGA litigation. We are now only accepting cases for minors between the ages of 8 and 17. We will no longer be accepting cases for adults, and dropping out of college is no longer an acceptable affliction. Please let me know if you have any questions.

I can change criteria no problem, it's just going to take me a minute to update the intake form if it's huge changes, but it'll be fine. Let me just crosscheck with current criteria to see if we might need to make a new casetype instead. Can you give me a moment? @Malissa
if it's going to be a problem/headache, let me know @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
so it looks like they're no longer taking microsoft games except minecraft? our current criteria has that they must have played roblox, fortnite, AND microsoft games. if so, i think it would be easiest to make a new campaign
because we have a few questions with lists of games they played on microsoft
that's not too bad right? The biggest one is the list of games?
because questions will need to be removed regarding the games
dang... they're gonna get to VGA 6 before GTA 6 comes out.
"The only games we are accepting are Minecraft, Roblox, and Fortnite. That hasn’t changed."
lol but the criteria they sent us had all of the games so it has changed
I'll bug Andy about it. He approved their current criteria. Let's go ahead and get the small changes done and if we need to make the changes to the games we can go from there.
i have a feeling that everyone has played at least 1 of the 3 games too
surprisingly i have not played Roblox, Fortnite OR Minecraft
I don't think we need to change the games really
this was the criteria they gave us btw, because if they're gonna have me change it to only those 2 games, the intake form is going to change significantly
Yeah i remember. That was the like the 3rd headache they've given me
We already send them what they want. I just pulled up all the intakes we've sent and all but one has played Fortnite, Minecraft, and Roblox. The odd one hasn't played Minecraft but has with the other two
Andy approved the current criteria we're using so i'm 90% sure we're fine
So, just to make sure, the current criteria we have is fine, we just need to change the age SOL?
Go ahead and do the minor changes (like the age part). Use the current games we have. I'll talk with Andy tomorrow
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M Andy's got a fire he needs to deal with so i might not get a game update today. leave those alone because we're getting the ones they want. I'll let you know if he says to make any changes there.
Go ahead and do the age change and the college dropout change. 🙂
@here can you guys investigate something? how did this lead get transferred from DL/Flatirons to Meadow? We didn't authorize transfers.
there's no note anywhere saying that this was allowed to move. not that i'm seeing anyway
Thank you! I'll see if i can find anything else out.
Hey @Malissa can i please have a signature for burg simpson's field? i only have one for meadow
i'll let you know as soon as i hear back @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
@Malissa Regarding that email about depo-provera for SGGH, is that the new retainer they want us to use just incase we open that campaign back up?
That’s the new one to use if we reopen the campaign. Right now we are at cap so I don’t think we will use it. @deleted-U05496RCQ9M and good morning!
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC how are we with the new chowchilla setup
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M Good morning! I just sent you the signature for burg simpson. if you need a different one let me know. At least she has one letter in hers though. Mine is just a squiggle.
@Malissa I was going through the email thread and they mentioned something about the HIPAA & HITECH being signed but not dated, does that mean i shouldn't add any date signed in the HIPAA HITECH?
yeah that doesn't need to be dated apparently.
i thought i put that in the call center chat. crap
wait i did. but the shock of getting AZ docs probably caused it to be missed lol
that's okay, i haven't started mapping the retainer yet because i didn't have both signatures anyway. i was just doing my last sweep of everything to make sure i didn't miss anything
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC re Chowchilla - ACTS. It's the same retainer as the old one, we just need to make sure Doug Rochen isn't on it FYI. I know it's old. 😕
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M how close are we to being ready to go with AZ Juv Hall Burg Simpson Meadow?
@Malissa Sobo and I finished our tasks, and the dialer guys are working on their portions now! all that's left after that should be mark and brittany's stuff!
@Malissa Acts still want no ssn's to be recorded into the form right?
Hi @Malissa for the Chowchilla 2, since it's a "clone" criteria from the original acts, the original isn't taking VSP or CIW, would this one be the same? only taking chowchilla?
I was told to either reopen the old one or create a #2 lol
it's a small cap... there was a thing with the attorneys... a #2 was safer
@Malissa Hi! For all the campaigns that are currently closed, is there any way that any of those can be moved to a different campaign? That way we can count them as commissionable?
I don't have authorization to move anything else at the moment
last one i got the ok for was AWD's mormon abuse
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y
I've got pinkbox donuts if anyone wants one
@Malissa Hey! For this retainer, it looks like the first 6 pages isn't the actual retainer portion but it's for the attorney's to sign for each other. The actual client retainer is around the 7th page. Should I just remove the first 6 pages then?
Ok, make sure i edited that correctly @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC What's still pending for Milberg Chowchilla?
Looks like we’re waiting on Brittany’s reports for one and for both of them Christian just needs to attach the points so i’ll remind him
also for Hernia Mesh, it says that we won’t accept cases where the sol will exports soon and the state does not allow exceptions, what will we define as soon? and are we getting a retainer for this soon as well? lol
@Malissa Hi can i please have the signature for Aaron law as well?
Can i also please have the original message you sent regarding the NEC? it's not in the newcampaignsetup channel anymore
Well, Mark is on PTO until Monday so not much is happening. I would say NEC should have a little more weight than the two for Aaron at the moment.
We'll have our portion done on monday. we have to update the intake form since it's so old, that's gonna take me a couple of hours to do
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y HI!
Chowchilla 2- ACTS. is it good to go or are we waiting on anything? Looks like it's live?
Also Tony is asking again if we can move AFFF PFAS Military Base Exposure - Levinson - ELG - MC CA - Shield Legal to AFFF PFAS Military Base Exposure - ELG - Levinson - TC - Shield Legal
I don't think we got the ok to move those leads. I'll have to find out
@here what's keeping AZ - Burg Simpson/Meadow from going live?
weird. i'm not seeing anything. lemme check something
ok i'm an idiot. I had someone's name in my filter
@Malissa Hi! Do we have retainers for both Riverside and Sacramento yet?
@Malissa also for the rush setup, it says this for the criteria "Limited Time To File For Compensation - Deadline to File is Feb 2 , 2025 to be considered To qualify" does this actually mean Feb 2, 2026??
Out of an abundance of caution I'm double checking but since the link is from yesterday and just says Feb 2, i'm going to say yes
@Malissa hey! Can we move chowchilla acts acts (tip) anywhere?
Chowchilla Womens Prison Abuse - ACTS - ACTS (TIP) - Shield Legal
Ok #2 is just that campaign. I separated it because of Doug Rochen. That’s fine
last thing i'm so sorry! We've never taken ssn or DOBs for ACTS but in the Sex trafficking retainer, they want it. do we just go ahead and put them on there?
If it’s in there yeah
It took me a minute to realize what DOBs meant. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Cam says ignore the deadline for that one too
Yeah ignore that Feb 2nd thing
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U062D2YJ15Y do we have any status updates for PFAS water contamination- ELG - Aaron?
But i ask because they’re taking all water not just military
Hmmmm. For all water right? Not just military?
Thanks! Means the issue is in leadspedia. I have a lead that should have gone to that one
Yeah this is what we have on the criteria • PNC was exposed to PFAS contaminated water AND/OR exposed while living on or near a defined military base
Dublin just needs minor changes in the intake form to reflect the new criteria and criteria is already changed. So it'll be ready to go, same retainer and everything yeah?
And PFAS-Aaron isn't open yet in LP so that's part of the issue. I'm working on that
i'll have it done within the next few minutes here
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M do they have a generic hipaa? And have we always had a HIPAA with their SA campaigns?
I probably ticked these guys off with how many times i called and emailed and texted for a retainer
Yeah i reached out and asked them if they need a hipaa
but if we have a basic one, let's use it for now and get it going. worst case they say they don't need it and we take it out
i can try and grab the hipaa from the chowchilla if that works?
just make sure it's not case specific. i'm kinda fried lol
@Malissa Good morning! Is NEC Baby Formula 2 open on leadspedia or not yet?
k he just turned it on. all other NECs are off (they already where but he confirmed it)
@Malissa For the original NEC - Awko campaign, we didn't have any original SOL for deceased PNCs. What should we do for NEC 2? NEC DL had a 1 year death SOL, Legafi had state sol, and AWD Wagstaff also had state sol
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M negative on Dublin. We're about to restart pride
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M how are we doing with the setup for the new chowchilla 2 campaign?
i can give brittany and mark a heads up to get it done asap if needed too
ok @deleted-U05496RCQ9M i gave mark and brittany a heads up so we can get this one done right away
I’m heading out. Let me know if you need anything or if there are issues. We’ve got to get that Chowchilla 2 campaign on by EOD per Cam. At least it’s a clone. 🤷♀️ @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
Hello @Malissa, for the Backpage criteria, where it states Injured party MUST BE able to provide proof of financial loss (i.e. lost wages) AND/OR mental healthcare (i.e. medical or pharmacological treatments, etc.) This means any form of lost wages due to being trafficked, right? because we have agents being confused about that and some of the questions they want us to answer on the intake form
hang on i gotta move this to a different screen for it to make sense
ok i read their original intake doc they sent. Basically they want how long they were being trafficked. because if you're being trafficked, you probably aren't working full time. So if Mary Sue had a 9-5 job but then got trafficked, maybe her hours became less and less or not at all.
all because she didn't listen to her friends and went on the backpages
A proof of that would be like bank statements and paystubs.
it's kinda like not being able to work because of a disability.
good morning, @Malissa! can we take males for backpage as well?
good morning @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. I'm confused. I don't see anything gender specific in what i sent over?
i don't see anything gender specific in the criteria. Now, I'm old.... but I think i'm still slightly with it sometimes.
no you're good, that's why i asked cause we didn't specify any genders. i just wanted to make sure before i start letting agents call males
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M are we doing a welcome letter for Chowchilla Meadow SGGH? and Chowchilla MILBERG SGGH?
wait.... i have it. nvm
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M SGGH wanted to update the welcome letter for Chowchilla with Meadow. (both 1 and 2). All they did was add the logo. Can we start using this one?
I hope you say yes because it took me like ... forever to fix their logo because their dude didn't know how.
Since Chowchilla 2 is open now we can just move 1 to 2 now right?
Milberg is still open but yeah we can send them to Chowchilla 2
man i thought we were going to be closing Milberg today. they want to keep it going
So an agent got a millberg sanders but they moved it to Chow 2 and got it signed, is this fine?
I just talked to luis about it @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. He's going to flag it and alert Tony
Heyyy @Malissa for PFAS Aaron ELG, they have to know that the water was contaminated right? It can be anywhere as long as they know it was contaminated water
I think they can agree to being PFAS tested. let me double check.
• PNC was diagnosed with a qualifying condition within the past 20 years (2004 or later) • PNC has a KNOWN exposure to PFAS in 1984 or later OR PNC has had a POSITIVE blood test for PFAS OR PNC is willing to undergo a blood test to establish exposure to PFAS
that's what was on the Baypoint ELG Water contamination one
So if they strongly suspect... they can agree to have a blood test
There are all these maps around of PFAS related cancer clusters so we'll probably get a lot of people saying "Yeah I lived near blah blah blah"
oh okay, gotcha. i was looking at the elg levinson criteria cause that's what we were supposed to clone
oh yeah i couldn't remember which. let me look at that one
but we were told to make the criteria the same as the afff-pfas dl
i'd say leave it as is. Again most people contacting us will be like "yes i lived near this cluster of known exposure."
cool. Most people with PFAS find out from someone else in the area that they qualified because of whatever
see that's what bugs me. there are so many levinson campaigns
because i think Andy was talling about the OG levinson PFAS
hold tight. keep taking stuff tho but hold tight lol
ok so.... @deleted-U05496RCQ9M.... put Sextortion - SGGH Aaron on the backburner
I mean, we have the signatures for Meadow and SGGH and i put it in the retainer. If his signature doesn't need to be there then I'll just proceed
for the rush campaign, are we removing every diagnosis and just having Thyroid Disease only?
How did we do Firefighting Foam Nations/Levinson Thyroid?
Cam's exact phrase: Criteria is the same EXCEPT we WILL take thyroid diease
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M we should update that name. I was looking at the Firefighting Foam one that is just thyroid
maybe just AFFF - PFAS Military Base Exposure 2 - Nations - Levinson - Shield Legal
yeah just AFFF PFAS Military Base Exposure - Nations - Levinson - Shield Legal
and for the chowchilla you want me to just proceed without aaron's signature?
lemme bug the firm hang on
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Hey so on the Levinson Nations PFAS I'mworried
I'm seeing non-LEvinsonELG Cases being signed
We need to make sure we're only doing ELG/Levinson
i'm sure you guys set it up right. i just have to bring it up here lol
@Malissa I'm getting questions about what type of thyroid disease we're accepting here. Can we get clarification on which ones they will accept? Typically it's been hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and hashimoto's, and graves disease
@deleted-U055HQT39PC cam only said thyroid disease in his message. I’ll get clarity. I would think it would be the typical ones.
That’s what I’m assuming as well. We have had them remove graves and hashimotos before, it can’t hurt to ask now rather than get firm declines later lol
Yeah no worries, we at least have an idea of what we’ve done in the past so it’s not like intake or pd are flying blind. Appreciate you!
For sure! I appreciate you guys.
@Malissa good morning, i made an announcement about the elg/levinson switcharoo
I’m pretty sure it was just confusion. @deleted-U05496RCQ9M you rock
Yeah i told the supervisors about it last night before it opened lol
also, does this look like something that can help with backpage?
Examples include: • Lost wages: ◦ Pay stubs showing you stopped getting paid after a certain date. ◦ Employment records showing termination or reduced hours linked to the trafficking. ◦ Tax returns showing a drop in income during/after the trafficking period. • Missed work opportunities: ◦ Offer letters or contracts for jobs you couldn’t take because of the trafficking. ◦ Employer letters confirming you missed work due to injuries, legal proceedings, or trauma. • Medical-related work loss: ◦ Doctor’s notes showing you were unable to work due to injuries or mental health issues caused by the trafficking. ◦ Disability paperwork or workers’ compensation claims (if applicable). • Other financial harm: ◦ Bank statements showing large withdrawals or missing funds connected to the trafficking. ◦ Receipts for therapy, rehab, or relocation expenses needed because of the trafficking. Injured party MUST be able to provide documented proof of financial loss — This means they must have verifiable records showing they lost income or suffered financial harm directly due to the trafficking. Acceptable proof includes, but is not limited to: • Pay stubs, tax returns, or employer statements showing reduced or lost wages. • Employment records or job offers that were rescinded or declined because of the trafficking. • Doctor’s notes or medical records showing they could not work due to injuries or trauma caused by the trafficking. • Disability, unemployment, or workers’ compensation documents. • Bank statements or receipts showing out-of-pocket expenses for therapy, relocation, medical care, or other needs resulting from the trafficking.
Yeah 3 were signed that shouldn't have been. I've got to have them declined
you could put "trafficking-related tattoo removal" under other if you want. or phrase that however.
@Malissa Hey! Have we gotten clarification on the thyroid stuff?
@Malissa Hey hey, what would the firm consider as living near a base? would 3miles or 4 miles be the limit?
@Malissa Hello again! so right now AFFF PFAS Military Base Exposure - Levinson - ELG - TC JP - Shield Legal is still open, but if the pnc has thyroid disease they can also switch this to the Nation one right?
regarding the distance question... is there someone that's come up where we need to figure out if that's near or is it just a general question
well sometimes we get pncs who say they lived within 5 miles or more
So i wanna get the agents an actual distance limit so we can avoid flags and firm reviews for these as much as we can
near is so subjective. for me near would be like... 5 miles from my house.
BUT to my husband's relatives, near would be the distance from McComb MS to New Orleans
"I live near New Orleans" like yeah no you don't.
yeah see 7 miles isn't near. but then it's like "well, what is 'Near' in terms of scientific data?"
we just don't want pnc's thinking like oh i live an hour from the base, that's near
you know what's sad though? if they're an hour away and they're the only town near the base, that could be near....
it is 14 miles from Clarksville TN to Fort Campbell KY. Clarksville is synonymous with Fort Campbell. Soldiers live there and all that.
i have a neighbor that stationed at Nellis. that's 26 miles.
yeah i don't think we can define near. it would have to be case by case.
@deleted-U055HQT39PC @deleted-U05496RCQ9M Can you guys add /TC to AFFF PFAS Nations Levinson? So it would be AFFF PFAS Military Base Exposure Nations - Levinson - TC
Just a question, since the campaign's already been up an running, it will affect Five9. Won't it also affect integrations and automations if we make this change?
That's a great question. i don't know about Five9 but i'll bug dustin
@Malissa do we need to attach the hipaa
i asked Cam @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. I'll let you knw
Have they used a HIPAA with other SA Campaigns?
because we ran into an issue before where dl just gave us retainers without hipaas and they yelled at us that the retainer is wrong 💀
got it. I'll let them know and tell them we do have one we've used previously for them
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M let's use the one we have. I told them we have one and can use it. the response was "Thank you" ... sooooo
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M i've got updated criteria for Chowchilla ACTS AWD
I'll post it in the call center channel.
For this one i just have a couple of questions: • so since they said abuse must have occurred within the last 10 years, are we getting rid of 2009 or later portion and this is the new SOL? • and for the part that says must be able to identify that the perpetrator was a correctional officer, is that the only abuser we're taking?
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M @deleted-U055HQT39PC Good morning! We might need to remind the agents that for Northwell sleep Center it's the Great Neck location only.
heck we're so busy maybe we need to start looking into people without pulses....
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M Just remembered the Chowchilla questions. Yes, it's last 10 years and they just want correctional officers.
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M how's it going with those chowchilla updates?
I just finished working on the revised retainers for ACTS so I'm working on it now. Criteria is done, I just need to fix the form to reflect the changes
real question is, what ISN'T wrong with acts...
anyway, I added Danny Abir's signature to every single open ACTS campaign's retainer and removed doug's name
so that's why they're irritated. i thought that was probably it
yeah i know. when you're done let me know and i'll let cam and andy know the updates are ready
since they need to identify the CO that abused them do i still need this in the criteria? • Injured party can provide the full last name of the abuser ◦ AND/OR ◦ Injured party can recognize a picture of the abuser ▪︎ AND/OR ◦ Injured party would recognize the name of the abuser if they heard it ▪︎ AND/OR ◦ Injured party filed a report at the time of the abuse AND can provide a detailed description of the abuser
you're good @deleted-U05496RCQ9M. i saw it and reached out to the firm
@Malissa Good morning! The answer is probably already a no, but, If a PNC accidentally signed up for either Sacramento or Riverside JDC abuse but they meant to sign up for San Bernardino, can we switch it to an open SB campaign? The DL one is closed though. No, right?
I don't think so? I just had an intake coach ask me if that was okay lol
and i have lots of questions as to how it got that far
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M Answer from AWD on the new chowchilla criteria: Injured party can provide the full last name of the abuser OR Injured party can recognize a picture of the abuser and provide a description OR Injured party filed a report at the time of the abuse
so the criteria just needs some more slight changes based off of this and we should be ready to go whenever this can open
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M What's up with Chowchilla - Aaron? Says there is a stuck with retainer docs?
I asked a few days ago if we should just proceed without it idk if you remember lol
Malissa i'm a little confused on this one, engaged in sexual touching with who?
She's basically wanting to say that they weren't just advertised. That they were actually doing sexual acts.
like they weren't just some creepy ad in the paper. they actually got calls that they were forced to do
okay so i can say that they must have engaged in sexual acts
@Malissa Hey! For this update right here, would this:
Replace: Injured party MUST still be currently incarcerated OR Have been released from Bureau of Prisons custody within the last 23 months from the intake date
In the current criteria?
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M i'm on a call with Ryan. just a heads up. Yeah they don't want people who are incarcerated right now. part of why they didn't want to do the rep/POA retainer.
when you make the updates, send it to me and i'll send to the firm
okay I'll resend the criteria update to you for both backpage and dublin
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M the V2 Dublin criteria doesn't look to be updated?
Also, to answer your question in another chat,
make the change to penetration. i can send it to the firm for review
so just to make sure i'm doing this correctly, they only want either penetration or oral as the accepted abuse for dublin? @Malissa
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M sorry had to step away for a second. Yes, penetration and/or oral.
@Malissa Do you know if we have an SOL for deceased for Social Media teen harm?
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M I’ll see what I can find out.
@Malissa So on the original criteria that was posted yesterday for both scenarios they have the PNC as 18 or younger when they became addicted to social media, if they need to be a minor, should i change it to 17 or under?
yeah. we can send 18 and 19 to the firm for review
Quick question just so i'm getting this right, so regardless, if they were over 18 when they got addicted or died, it needs to be sent to firm?
Cause your message just says If they died aged 18 or 19, send for firm review.
got it send for firm for both addiction and death if over 18
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M i made some updates on the criteria. i put it back to 18 or younger for if they are living. The death thing was where they wanted firm reviews for 18 and 19.
This is still true right? @Malissa we can move them to nations Levinson?
like that's old old. Where is this old stuff coming from lol
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M Any updates on Backpage - Levinson?
It's done except making the sec webhook. i made an SEC case type for it but there's no questions in it because we don't have an actual template for it.
This is the same thing for backpage plf regarding the SEC, campaign is made but there is no questions
can we get levinson ready to start intake at least? i ask because i'm worried pride will fill up quick
I would as mark if he's okay with that portion being marked done since there he's doing that part of the process.
@Malissa So since we're cloning SGGH San Bernardino, I noticed that this specific campaign has an OSOL campaign, are we not making an OSOL?
I don’t think mark made a leadspedia id for Osol. And I think they weren’t going to continue it. Hold off for now
Good morning, @Malissa do you know if we have a death SOL for any of the backpage campaigns?
Hey @Malissa for the san bernardino pride clone, do they want us to clone DL intake and criteria or AWD/SGGH? DL criteria states no inmate on inmate abuse while AWD/SGGH states that inmate on inmate abuse is fine to accept.
what did we use for San Bernardino County JDC Abuse - PLF - PLF - Shield Legal?
We'll have the initial setup for the ones that were given today done tomorrow (for our part anyway)
@Malissa hey hey, I just wanted to confirm, do we just mark SA clones as approved since they're clones?
Yeah if it's identical, no changes, just a clone like dolly the sheep.
or like i need to do to myself just to get stuff done
so we found some of the facilities were either removed or we needed to add some, everything else is identical though, still good?
like the intake is the same and criteria is basically the same, just different facilities? There is an option for "Other" on the website too if that helps.
intake and criteria are still the same except for some facilities. at least one was removed and one was added.
@Malissa do you know who we're billing for San Diego Juv Crump Slater Secondary interview?
also do we need an SEC for San Bernardino Juv Detention Abuse (CA JDC Abuse) - ACTS - ACTS - Shield Legal?
i see no instructions from Cam about Secondary. and ACTS is weird about secondaries
i have a campaign with no questions in it though, just in case.
.... ????????? is it like they call in and it's just silence???
then after x amount of time we go "congrats you won"?
oh no, i just made one thinking we would need it, i just haven't put any questions in it cause i wasn't sure what i would clone for it
That's my main concern. but Cam didn't specify
no i meant for the campaigns we have right now, those two are the only ones that don't have SECs
San Diego Juv Detention Abuse (CA JDC Abuse) - Crump - Slater - Shield Legal and San Bernardino Juv Detention Abuse (CA JDC Abuse) - ACTS - ACTS - Shield Legal
can we move NEC Baby Formula - LegaFi - LegaFi - Shield Legal to NEC AWKO 2?
We have LegaFi 2 able to move to AWKO 2, just wondering if LegaFi original can be moved too
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M no Secondaries for ACTS at the moment. I'll let you know.
since we were putting legafi og on legafi 2, yeah
last night! i'm not too worried about it honestly, we can keep as is, cause i checked yesterday and there's literally only 3 leads that can be worked on in legafi og
i get notices that random old campaigns get signed PNCs in slack. I panic and then see they were moved. Then i have to go see if it was authorized...
@here San Bernardino County JDC Abuse - SGGH - AWD - Shield Legal is the OSOL open???
and they also have a new campaign that they told us to build for san diego and san bernardino for In sol and OSOL
Because that was Cam's instructions. But we can't do any more OSOL
yeah cam just said pause OSOL when i asked. Tony might have different instructions. OSOL shouldnt' be in the dialer though
should i also pull the retainer for San Bernardino Juv Detention Abuse (CA JDC Abuse) OSOL - AWD - SGGH - Shield Legal that we just built?
closing both San Bernardino County JDC Abuse OSOL - SGGH - AWD - Shield Legal and San Bernardino Juv Detention Abuse (CA JDC Abuse) OSOL - AWD - SGGH - Shield Legal
cool. thank you! I'll let you know if something changes
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M i got two messages i'm copied on from Cam that tell mark not to activate San Bernardino OSOL in Leadspedia and another with Cam saying that he does not think any OSOL campaigns are active. So let's leave it closed
do you know if we have a death SOL for any of the backpage campaigns?
We pulled the retainer for NEC - DL Flatirons right? Because we got a signup yesterda
Since we closed the San Bernardino OSOL campaign do we not launch the OSOL campaign for San Diego also?
i don't think we get anything for SD anyway....
@Malissa Can "MI Clergy Abuse - SGGH - GLF - Shield Legal" be moved to "MI Clergy Abuse - SGGH - Meadow Law"?
I think plain SGGH Meadow is going to be pulled soon. i think.
Should I also pull retainer from San Diego County JDC Abuse OSOL - SGGH - AWD - Shield Legal? @Malissa
let's leave that one in for now @deleted-U05496RCQ9M
i don't have any instructions to do anything with that one
Good morning! Is Michigan Juv Hall Abuse - DL/BG - Flatirons - Shield Legal still active, or does it need to be closed?
i think DL moved away from BG completely. I'll confirm.
Yeah, because Brittany brought it to my attention since we got a sign i think a couple of days ago. If we do need it close, i need to pull the retainer asap
@Malissa hey for the original WS Mormon, the retainer has a hipaa, do they want that attached to the retainer you sent? also, are the two retainers you sent me the same for the UT one?
@deleted-U05496RCQ9M We've got the OSOL and the In Statute - same retainer.
Does the HIPAA attached to the original retainer have any other firms on it?
so there's an OSOL and an In Statute retainer? or it's all in one? and here's a ss of the hipaa
it's the same retainer. i just attached it to each post
i do that so when in a year we're like WTF we can look and see it's all together
just for clarification for San Bernardino campaigns, we have in the criteria "Injured party can provide the name (at least a name or nickname)" can this be a first name or does it have to be the last name or full name? @Malissa
Injured party can provide the name (at least a name or nickname) of the abuser AND can provide a detailed description of the abuser
That AND is very important here. At this point, they probably know the abusers. So if you say "Jimmy. he's a creepy little white guy with brown hair and one eye" they'll know.
And my apologies if anyone knows a Jimmy who is a little white guy with one eye and he's actually a cool dude
Yeah, that is part of the criteria, but I wanted to know if we can take any name variation like first names, last names, or nicknames? or is it limited to last name or nicknames?
Just a name. whatever they remember as long as they can describe them
