The High Cost of Missed Bankruptcy Calls
Missed After-Hours Calls from Clients Facing Immediate Creditor Harassment or Foreclosure
Bankruptcy clients often call after hours during crises—such as a foreclosure auction notice, wage garnishment, or creditor threats—seeking immediate relief through an automatic stay. With 60% of legal emergencies occurring outside business hours, a missed call can mean the difference between stopping a foreclosure and losing a home. For Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy attorneys, this delay can jeopardize the timing of filing a bankruptcy petition, especially when the means test must be completed within 30 days of filing. A single unanswered call during a 2 a.m. panic call from a client facing eviction could result in a lost case and a damaged reputation.
Staff Time Wasted on Incomplete Voicemails from Clients with Complex Debt Profiles
Attorneys and paralegals spend up to 30 minutes per call trying to decipher fragmented voicemails from clients struggling with secured vs unsecured debts, such as a mortgage (secured) versus credit card debt (unsecured). These calls often lack critical details like income sources, recent creditor contact, or whether the client has already filed a Chapter 13 plan. Without accurate intake, staff must re-contact clients—wasting 2–3 hours per week per attorney—time that could be spent preparing a bankruptcy petition or advising on exempt property exemptions. This inefficiency compounds when multiple missed calls from clients with dischargeable debts are not captured.
Lost Leads Due to Incomplete Intake from Clients in Crisis Mode
Clients calling after hours are often in emotional distress and may only mention key details like 'I can’t pay my car loan' or 'My house is being repossessed.' Without a structured intake process, crucial information—such as whether the car loan is secured, if the client qualifies for Chapter 13 based on the means test, or if they’re facing a creditor meeting in the next 14 days—gets lost. With 80% of potential clients never calling back after missing a call, and 35% of law firm calls going unanswered, bankruptcy firms risk losing high-value leads who are already committed to filing but need immediate guidance on dischargeable debts and the automatic stay.

Why Bankruptcy Attorneys Choose Answrr
Capture More Clients After Hours
Our AI receptionist captures after-hours calls from clients facing imminent foreclosure or wage garnishment and qualifies them within 90 seconds using a customized script that asks about secured debts, income, and whether they’ve filed a bankruptcy petition before. In one case, a client called at 1:45 a.m. after receiving a repossession notice on their vehicle. The AI collected details about the loan type, income, and exemption status, scheduled a consultation within 12 minutes, and the firm filed a Chapter 13 bankruptcy petition the next day—stopping the repossession. Since implementing the service, one firm reported a 40% increase in after-hours conversions, capturing 12 new Chapter 13 cases in just 60 days.
Automate Intake Without Manual Work
The AI receptionist automates the entire intake process for Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 clients, asking targeted questions about the means test, exempt property (like a primary residence or vehicle), and whether the client has already filed. It schedules consultations, sends calendar invites with a link to a pre-filing questionnaire, and even reminds clients to bring pay stubs and tax returns. One firm reduced manual intake time by 85%, freeing 12 hours per week for attorneys to focus on preparing bankruptcy petitions and attending creditor meetings. This efficiency led to a 30% increase in case throughput without adding staff.
Build Trust with Consistent, Personalized Service
The AI remembers past client interactions—such as a client who previously asked about the automatic stay after a creditor threatened wage garnishment or one who struggled with the means test due to irregular income. On a follow-up call, the AI references these concerns, making the client feel understood and reducing anxiety. This personalization builds trust, especially when clients are deciding between firms. One attorney reported a 55% increase in consultation-to-case conversion rate after implementing the AI’s long-term memory feature, with clients specifically mentioning, 'You remembered my last concern about the trustee’s review.'
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We were losing 4–5 potential Chapter 13 clients a month because they called after hours and got voicemail. One client called at 11:30 p.m. after a creditor threatened to seize her car—she was terrified. We missed her call, and she never returned. Since switching to Answrr, we’ve captured every after-hours call. In just 90 days, we’ve filed 18 new Chapter 13 cases, including 3 involving complex secured debts and 2 where the means test was borderline. The AI even flagged one client’s irregular income and prompted us to request additional documentation early—saving us from a filing delay.”

“The AI receptionist asks about the automatic stay, dischargeable debts, and whether the client has a creditor meeting scheduled—exactly what we need. One client called at 2:15 a.m. after a foreclosure notice arrived. The AI collected her income, secured debts, and exemption status, scheduled a consultation, and sent a reminder with a checklist. We filed her Chapter 7 petition the next day. She later told us, 'You answered when no one else would.' That’s the kind of trust we can’t afford to lose.”

“I run a solo practice focused on Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy. I’m not tech-savvy, but the AI onboarding assistant walked me through setting up custom scripts for secured vs unsecured debts, the means test, and automatic stay questions. It took me 8 minutes. Now, when a client calls at 1:20 a.m. about a wage garnishment, the AI captures the details, schedules a call, and even reminds me to review their exempt property. I’ve booked 7 new cases in the last 45 days—something I couldn’t do before.”
