The Problem

LAW FIRMS LOSE
CLIENTS TO SLOW RESPONSE

You're losing billable hours and clients every day. Potential clients call at 9 PM, consultations get missed, and your staff can't handle the intake volume. There's a better way.

You Miss Calls When Clients Need You Most

Someone gets served papers at 8 PM, calls your firm, and gets voicemail. By the time you check messages in the morning, they've already hired a competitor who answered immediately.

The Cost
$8,500/case
Average case value lost

Your Staff Is Drowning in Intake Calls

While you're in court, five case inquiries come in. Document requests, consultation bookings, urgent questions—you can't be everywhere at once. Clients get frustrated waiting, and you lose cases.

The Cost
60+ calls/day
Per legal assistant

Consultations No-Show and You Lose Them Forever

You block an hour, prep the case file, and wait. They don't show. You send one follow-up email that gets ignored. That's it—they're gone. No second chance, no recovery, just wasted billable time and another lost client.
