You Can't Be in Two Places at Once
You know the feeling. You're walking out of court, check your phone, and there they are: three missed calls, two voicemails, and that sinking feeling that one of them was a great case. The thing is, people in legal trouble don't leave voicemails and wait. They're anxious, they're scared, and they call the next attorney on the list. By the time you call back, they've already signed with someone else. It's not that you don't care about your clients or your practice. You're just one person, and the phone doesn't stop ringing just because you're busy doing the actual work of being a lawyer.
You're in the middle of a critical hearing
Your phone is off. That personal injury caller tried three firms. The one that answered got the case. You find out hours later when you finally check messages.
It's Saturday night and someone's son just got arrested
Their family is desperate, calling every criminal defense attorney they can find. Your voicemail greeting plays. They hang up and keep dialing. By morning, another firm has the retainer.
Your receptionist called in sick on a busy Monday
You're juggling client meetings, court prep, and a ringing phone. By 5 PM, you have a dozen voicemails you haven't had time to listen to, and no idea which ones were urgent.
A potential client calls during your lunch break
You finally took 30 minutes to eat and think. But that divorce consultation you've been hoping to land? They called someone else who picked up.
Focus on Your Cases. We'll Handle the Calls.
Every Caller Gets Qualified
Your receptionist asks the questions that matter to your practice. What kind of legal issue? When did it happen? Have they talked to other attorneys? By the time you see the message, you'll know if it's a good fit and how urgent it is. No more wasting callbacks on cases you don't handle.
Discretion Your Clients Expect
Legal matters are personal. Whether someone is calling about a DUI, a custody dispute, or a business falling apart, your receptionist treats every caller with respect and confidentiality. They feel heard. They feel like they've reached a real law firm that cares. Because they have.
Consultation Requests, Ready to Go
Your receptionist gathers everything you need: case type, contact info, availability, and the details that help you prepare. No phone tag. No back-and-forth emails. Just complete requests waiting for your team to confirm.

How It Helps Your Business
Real scenarios where our AI receptionist saves you time and money
Criminal Defense
When someone gets arrested, their family starts calling lawyers right away, often in the middle of the night. Your receptionist captures who was arrested, what the charges are, which jail they're in, and who to call back. You get notified immediately for urgent cases, giving you a chance to respond while the family is still looking for help.
Personal Injury
Accident victims call when everything is fresh and they need guidance. Your receptionist captures what happened, what injuries they're dealing with, insurance details, and when they can talk. While other firms send callers to voicemail, you're getting complete information delivered to your phone.
Family Law
Divorce and custody calls are emotional. People are nervous and often embarrassed. Your receptionist handles these sensitive conversations with warmth, gathering the basics while making the caller feel respected. You get the details you need to have a meaningful first conversation.
Smart Screening
Not every caller is a fit for your practice, and that's okay. Your receptionist asks the screening questions you define, like case type, where it happened, and timeline. You'll know at a glance which inquiries deserve an immediate callback and which can wait.
