INJURY INTAKE FORM TEMPLATE FAQ


What is an injury intake form?

An injury intake form is a structured questionnaire used at first contact to gather essential information about an accident or injury. It collects personal details, incident facts, medical treatment, insurance information, work status, and how the injury affects daily life, so that professionals can evaluate the situation and decide next steps.


Who uses an injury intake form?

Injury intake forms are commonly used by law firms, medical clinics, chiropractors, physical therapy providers, insurance companies, and employers. They help organize information for potential personal injury, workers’ compensation, or DUI-related crash cases.


What information should be included in an injury intake form?

A helpful injury intake form usually covers: contact and identification details, incident date, time, and location, how the accident happened, all injured body parts, medical treatment to date, health and auto insurance, employment and wage information, prior injuries, witnesses and police reports, and the impact on daily activities. It should also include a declaration and signature section.


Can this injury intake form be used for car accidents, workplace injuries, or slip-and-fall cases?

Yes. This Injury Intake Form Template is designed to be flexible and can be adapted for motor vehicle accidents (including DUI-related crashes), workplace injuries, slip-and-fall incidents, sports injuries, and other personal injury situations. You can add, remove, or rename sections to match your practice or organization.


Does completing an injury intake form create an attorney–client or doctor–patient relationship?

Not necessarily. Completing an intake form usually allows a firm, clinic, or organization to review your information and decide whether they can accept your case or provide services. It does not by itself guarantee representation, treatment, or benefits. Any professional relationship is typically confirmed separately in a written agreement, retainer, or consent form.


Can AI Lawyer help me prepare or customize an injury intake form?

Yes. AI Lawyer can help you organize and customize this injury intake form for your law office, clinic, or business by suggesting wording, layout, and additional questions. You still decide what information to collect and must follow your local legal, medical, and privacy requirements. This template is for general document organization only and is not legal or medical advice.
