Legal Answering Service
Every call answered, qualified, booked, and logged in your CMS, in the caller's language, nights and weekends included.
The Job of a Legal Answering Service
Taking a message is the bare minimum. A law firm phone answering service should carry each caller from the first ring to a booked, documented next step.
Answer every call, 24/7
Every inbound call is answered day or night, weekends and holidays included, so no prospective client reaches voicemail and dials the next firm.
Qualify with practice-area intake
Callers are asked practice-area-specific intake questions that screen for fit and capture the facts an attorney actually needs to evaluate the matter.
Route or book the next step
Qualified callers are transferred live, booked for a consultation, or routed to the right attorney or department based on your firm’s rules.
Log everything in your CMS
Every conversation is summarized and written into your case management system automatically, with no manual data entry and no message slips.
Most firms are choosing between three ways to answer the phone. Here is how they differ on the outcomes above.
