The Cost of Missing Critical Client Calls
Missed After-Hours Calls During Critical Case Intake Windows
Civil litigation firms often miss high-intent leads during after-hours calls—especially between 6 PM and 8 AM—when potential clients are researching legal options following accidents, contract disputes, or employment violations. A 2024 ABA Legal Technology Survey found that 34% of civil litigation clients first contact a firm outside business hours, yet 27% of those calls go unanswered. This results in lost case referrals, particularly in time-sensitive matters like personal injury claims with statute of limitations looming within 6–12 months.
Inconsistent Qualification of High-Value Litigation Leads
Without a structured system, after-hours callers—often victims of slip-and-fall incidents, breach of contract disputes, or wrongful termination—provide critical details like incident dates, insurance information, and witness names. When these calls go to voicemail, 85% are never returned, and key facts are lost. This leads to missed opportunities in complex cases requiring early evidence preservation, such as medical records or surveillance footage, which degrade or disappear over time.
High Overhead for 24/7 Human Coverage in Litigation Practices
Hiring a dedicated after-hours receptionist for a civil litigation firm costs $3,500–$5,200/month, including salary, benefits, and training. For firms managing 15–20 active cases, this represents a 12–18% increase in overhead. Moreover, human staff often experience burnout, leading to inconsistent service during peak call times like weekends after major accidents or during discovery deadlines.

Why Civil Litigation Firms Choose Answrr
Capture More Cases
Answrr’s AI captures after-hours calls from clients involved in personal injury, commercial disputes, or employment law matters, qualifying them using predefined scripts based on case type. For example, the system asks for the date of the incident, whether police were called, and if the client has medical documentation—critical details for early case assessment. Firms report a 68% increase in booked consultations within 45 days of implementation, with 42% of new clients originating from after-hours calls.
Automated Appointment Booking
The AI integrates directly with Calendly and Clio, allowing real-time appointment booking for consultations, depositions, or client intake meetings. For example, a client calling at 7:30 PM after a car accident can be booked into a 9:00 AM slot the next morning—ensuring the firm captures the case before the statute of limitations clock starts. Firms report a 30% increase in calendar utilization during weekends and evenings, with 57% of new case bookings occurring outside business hours.
Always-On Professionalism
Answrr presents a consistent, professional image with firm-specific greetings, case type prompts, and tone calibrated to litigation clients. For example, the AI uses language like 'We handle personal injury, commercial litigation, and employment disputes' and asks, 'Are you seeking representation for a workplace injury or a breach of contract?' This builds immediate credibility. Firms report a 40% improvement in client perception scores on post-intake surveys, particularly among clients who contacted the firm after hours.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We used to lose nearly half our after-hours calls—especially from people injured in car crashes or construction site accidents. Now, Answrr captures every lead, asks the right questions about medical treatment and insurance, and books consultations within minutes. In just three months, we added 12 new personal injury cases and 5 commercial disputes—many from calls at 10 PM or on Sundays. It’s like having a 24/7 paralegal on staff.”

“The AI remembers past interactions—like when a client called about a breach of contract and later followed up with a new claim. It even asks follow-up questions like 'Did you receive a demand letter from the other party?' That level of detail makes it feel like a real legal assistant. We’ve reduced our intake backlog by 60% and cut client wait times from 48 hours to under 2 hours.”
Derek Thompson
Legal Operations Director, Thompson & Reed Litigation Group, Civil Litigation Firms
“I run a small firm with only two attorneys, and I was drowning in after-hours calls. Answrr onboarded me in under 15 minutes—walked me through setting up case type prompts, integrating with my Clio calendar, and even training the AI on our firm’s preferred intake language. Now, we’re booking cases 24/7 without hiring anyone. In one month, we secured three new breach of contract cases that would’ve been lost otherwise.”
