The problem
A new client with a personal injury case will call the next firm if you do not pick up
Your attorneys are in client meetings, depositions, or on calls all day. Your front desk handles walk-ins, mail, and admin, and cannot always get to the phone. New client inquiries in personal injury, family law, and real estate closings are time-sensitive. The firm that picks up first gets the engagement. After hours, potential clients search and call, and get your voicemail.
- 67% of potential legal clients will call another firm if they cannot reach you on the first attempt
- A new personal injury or family law engagement can be worth $5,000+ in fees
- Attorneys in meetings or court cannot answer calls, and a receptionist costs $2,000+/month
- After-hours calls from distressed clients go to voicemail with no acknowledgement or reassurance
