The intake call you missed didn't become a client. It became your competitor's retainer.
An intake call can carry five figures of case value, and the caller is often speaking to firms in the order they answer. We pick up immediately, capture the detail that matters, put a consult on the right calendar, and escalate anything that needs a person — never legal advice from the AI.
- Intake detail has to be captured accurately the first time
- Consults need to land on the right attorney's calendar
- Callers in distress do not wait on hold
After hours. Distressed caller. This is the intake most firms lose.

Written for demonstration. The AI does not give legal advice — intake and scheduling only, with human escalation on the ruleset you set.
