Law Office Template

AI Receptionist for
Law Offices

New clients call once. If they get voicemail, they call the next attorney. An AI receptionist handles intake, routes case inquiries, and maintains confidentiality — so you never lose a client to a missed call.

Why Law Firms Lose Clients Every Day

Your attorneys are in hearings and meetings. Meanwhile, potential clients call, get voicemail, and hire a competitor.

Lost Intake Calls

Potential clients call during hearings and meetings, get voicemail, and call the next attorney on the list. First contact wins — and missed calls cost you the case.

Confidentiality at the Front Desk

Sensitive case details discussed at the front desk are overheard in the waiting room. An AI receptionist keeps conversations private and never discloses client information to unauthorized callers.

Case Status Overload

Existing clients call constantly for updates. Paralegals spend half their day on status calls instead of billable work. An AI receptionist handles routing by attorney or case number automatically.

Built for Law Offices

Every feature in the law office template is tailored to how legal practices actually work.

Client Intake

Collects caller's name, contact information, legal matter description, area of law, and referral source. Intake summaries sent instantly to your team via SMS.

Confidentiality Built In

Case Status Routing

Routes callers by attorney name or case number to the appropriate department or voicemail. Paralegals and attorneys are only interrupted when truly necessary.

Active arrests, imminent court deadlines, protective order situations, and threats of harm are flagged immediately and routed to on-call attorneys — any time of day.

After-Hours Coverage

The AI stays active 24/7 and automatically switches to after-hours mode. Routine callers leave messages; urgent matters are routed to on-call attorneys immediately.

Common Questions

Does the AI provide legal advice to callers?
No. The AI never provides legal advice. It collects intake information — name, contact details, legal matter, area of law, and referral source — and routes the call to the appropriate attorney or department. All substantive legal questions are held for your team.
How does the AI handle client confidentiality?
The law office template is configured to remind callers that communications are confidential and never discloses existing client names or case details to anyone calling in. Sensitive information collected during intake is transmitted securely via SMS or webhook to your authorized staff only.
Can it handle urgent matters like arrests or court deadlines?
Yes. The template includes urgency detection that flags active arrests, imminent court deadlines, protective order situations, and threats of harm. These calls are immediately routed to an on-call attorney line or trigger an urgent SMS alert to your designated on-call staff.
What intake information does it collect from new clients?
The new client intake flow collects full name, phone number, email address, a brief description of the legal matter, area of law, and referral source. This summary is sent to your intake coordinator via SMS so they can follow up promptly.
