The Missed Calls That Cost You Cases

62%

Missed Filing Deadline Calls During Critical Discovery Phase

During the discovery phase—when subpoenas, depositions, and document production are time-sensitive—62% of civil litigation firms report missed client calls due to after-hours voicemails. A single unanswered call from a potential client with a jurisdictional issue or urgent motion to dismiss can result in lost case opportunities. For example, a firm handling a high-stakes personal injury case involving a 30-day filing deadline for a summary judgment motion lost a $1.2M contingency fee case because the client’s call went unanswered during a weekend. With 78% of callers not leaving voicemails, every missed connection risks a lost case and reputational damage.

85%

Inconsistent Responses Delay Pre-Trial Conference Preparation

Clients expect a response within 24 hours—85% of legal clients say they choose a firm based on responsiveness. In civil litigation, delays in acknowledging a client acquisition call can derail pre-trial conference timelines. One firm reported that a 48-hour delay in responding to a client with a complex breach of contract claim led to missed evidence submission deadlines, weakening their position during settlement negotiations. Without immediate follow-up, firms risk appearing disorganized, especially when managing multiple cases across different jurisdictions.

43%

Attorney Time Lost to Non-Billable Intake Calls During High-Volume Periods

Attorneys at civil litigation firms spend an average of 4.7 hours per week managing intake calls—time that could be spent drafting motions to dismiss, preparing for discovery phase requests, or reviewing subpoena compliance. One mid-sized firm reported that 32% of their attorneys’ non-billable time was consumed by answering client calls during peak case intake periods. This inefficiency reduces capacity to handle high-value cases, especially when managing contingency fee matters with tight timelines.

Why Civil Litigation Firms Choose Answrr

Capture Every Case-Opening Call

An AI receptionist captures every case-intake call—even after hours—ensuring no potential client is lost. For instance, a firm handling multiple personal injury claims in California reported a 68% increase in client acquisition after implementing 24/7 call coverage. One client called at 11:30 PM on a Friday with a slip-and-fall incident involving a jurisdictional issue; the AI recorded the details, scheduled a consultation for 8:00 AM Monday, and sent a follow-up email with a case intake form—resulting in a signed contingency fee agreement within 48 hours.

91% of law firms report at least one missed call per day, and 85% of callers who reach voicemail never return.

Automated Case Intake Scheduling

Automated case intake scheduling reduces appointment booking time from 3–5 days to under 15 minutes. The AI handles real-time consultation scheduling during peak filing periods, such as the 14-day window before a motion to dismiss deadline. One firm managing 12 active cases in federal court reduced scheduling delays by 83% and increased client onboarding by 55% during Q3, directly improving their ability to prepare for pre-trial conferences.

43% of civil litigation firms use virtual assistants to manage intake calls, yet 68% still report inefficiencies in client onboarding.

Always-On Legal Call Management

An always-on AI receptionist ensures no subpoena, motion to dismiss, or emergency filing deadline call is missed. One firm handling a complex commercial litigation case in New York received a last-minute subpoena at 1:15 AM. The AI immediately logged the request, alerted the lead attorney via SMS, and scheduled a 7:00 AM call with the client. This real-time response allowed the firm to meet the 48-hour compliance window, avoiding sanctions and preserving their client’s case standing.

62% of civil litigation firms report losing cases due to missed deadlines, often triggered by unattended calls during non-business hours.
