Legal Call Answering For Every Client Enquiry.

means a real person will be speaking with each and every one of your callers, all of whom will be highly knowledgeable about your law firm operations and the expectations of a client. Our legal answering team will qualify new instructions, handle routine enquiries, manage message taking, and recognise when a matter needs escalation.

We operate on a pay-per-call basis. This method is a transparent and simple process, so your team will know exactly what they are paying for. Our legal answering service model offers you clarity and predictability so you can understand the expenses going out of your business.

Our legal answering will capture all the relevant information that your business will need. This includes the caller’s name, nature of the matter, urgency level, whether they are a new or existing client, and key details about the case or issues. With the use of AI technology, the team at Pocket Receptionist will be able to support this process automatically logging the important details, identifying priorities, and structuring information in a way that’s easy to digest. Our humans will be doing all of the listening and legal judgement, whilst our state-of-the-art technology will be ensuring that no data is missed or miscoded.

Through the Pocket Receptionist app, you’ll see all of the call summaries and what actions are needed next. You’ll be notified according to your personal preference, whether that is email, SMS, or direct integration with your in-house management system (we support Clio, Rocket Matter, LEAP and many others). This ensures that your team is always aware of the calls that our legal answering service deals with. You make the decisions on how you want to be notified, and we’ll sort the rest.
