The Missed Calls That Cost You Clients
Missed Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Leads During Business Hours Due to Staff Overload
During peak intake periods, bankruptcy attorneys often miss up to 35% of incoming calls—especially those from clients facing imminent foreclosure or wage garnishment. For example, a client struggling with $28,000 in unsecured debt and a pending eviction notice may call during business hours, only to be met with a busy signal. Without immediate contact, they may default to a competitor who answers—especially since 67% of clients choose the first attorney who answers. This loss is particularly damaging when the caller qualifies for Chapter 7 bankruptcy after passing the means test, but delays in intake prevent timely filing of the bankruptcy petition before creditor actions escalate.
After-Hours Emergencies Go Unanswered—Even When Clients Are in Crisis
60% of legal emergencies occur after business hours, including clients receiving a notice of foreclosure sale or a wage garnishment order. A debtor calling at 11:45 p.m. after being served with a summons for nonpayment of medical bills may hang up without leaving a voicemail—73% do—especially if they’re overwhelmed by fear and uncertainty. Without an immediate response, the opportunity to file a Chapter 7 petition before the automatic stay is triggered is lost. This results in irreversible asset seizures, including nonexempt property like a second vehicle or investment account, which could have been protected under the bankruptcy code.
Intake Teams Overwhelmed by High-Volume Call Surges After Debt Collection Campaigns
Following aggressive debt collection campaigns—such as a major credit card issuer’s nationwide outreach—bankruptcy law firms often experience 3–5x spikes in call volume within 48 hours. Staff are unable to keep up, leading to missed calls, delayed responses, and clients being routed to voicemail. This is especially critical when a client’s financial situation involves priority vs. nonpriority debts, such as back child support (priority) versus credit card debt (nonpriority), requiring immediate legal guidance. Without timely intake, the client may miss the 341 meeting window or fail to complete required means test documentation.

Why Bankruptcy Attorneys Choose Answrr
Capture High-Intent Leads 24/7
An AI phone agent qualifies leads in real time by asking targeted questions: 'Are you facing foreclosure?' 'Do you have secured debt like a car loan?' 'Is your income below the median for your state?' Based on responses, it determines eligibility for Chapter 7 bankruptcy and flags cases where the client may have nonexempt property that requires liquidation planning. For example, a caller with $45,000 in unsecured debt and a car worth $12,000—where the lien exceeds equity—can be routed to a Chapter 13 attorney immediately. Since implementation, one firm reported capturing 14 Chapter 7 cases in two weeks, including 3 clients who were within 72 hours of losing their home to foreclosure.
Book Appointments in Real Time
The AI agent checks your firm’s calendar and books consultations instantly—no phone tag. For a client facing a wage garnishment hearing in 48 hours, the AI can book a 9 a.m. appointment the same day, even if it’s a Saturday. It confirms the client’s intent to file a bankruptcy petition, collects key details like the number of secured vs. unsecured debts, and sends a pre-intake form via SMS. One firm reduced their average consultation booking time from 4.2 days to under 2 hours, increasing conversion rates by 37% and enabling them to file 11 Chapter 7 petitions in a single week—3 of which were filed within 72 hours of initial contact.
Build Trust with Personalized Service
The AI remembers every caller—name, past case type, and concerns—delivering personalized service. For a repeat client who previously filed Chapter 13 and is now facing a second foreclosure, the AI greets them by name and says, 'We’ve helped clients like you restructure their mortgage debt and avoid liquidation. Would you like to discuss a new repayment plan?' This builds instant trust. One firm saw a 41% increase in client satisfaction scores and a 28% rise in referrals after implementing AI recall features, particularly among clients with complex cases involving priority debts and exempt property calculations.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We used to lose 4 out of 10 emergency calls—especially from clients with $30K+ in medical debt and a foreclosure notice. Since deploying Answrr, we’ve captured 12 Chapter 7 cases in just 30 days, including one client who was 48 hours from losing their home. The AI asked about their secured debt, verified their means test eligibility, and booked a consultation before they even hung up. We filed the petition the next day—automatic stay stopped the eviction. This isn’t just efficiency; it’s life-saving.”

“I’m not a tech person, but Answrr built my AI agent in 8 minutes using our firm’s standard intake script. Now, when a client calls at 1 a.m. about a wage garnishment on their Social Security benefits, the AI confirms their priority debt status, checks if they qualify for Chapter 7, and books a consultation with our lead attorney. We’ve saved over 120 hours in staff time this year and doubled our intake capacity without hiring more staff.”

“Our clients are terrified—some are calling from shelters or after losing their jobs. Answrr responds with empathy: 'I understand this is overwhelming. Let’s get you protected under the automatic stay.' It asks about nonexempt property, secured creditors, and dischargeable debts. Since going live, our consultation conversion rate jumped from 42% to 58%—a 38% improvement. One client even said, 'You answered before I could hang up. That’s the first time anyone ever listened.'”
