The High-Stakes Risk of Missed Legal Calls

60%

Missed Case Inquiries During High-Stakes Court Appearances

Civil litigation attorneys frequently miss time-sensitive calls during depositions, trial appearances, or hearings—critical moments when potential clients are seeking representation for personal injury, commercial disputes, or employment litigation. With 60% of law firms reporting lost leads due to missed calls during court, vital legal intake screening opportunities are lost. For example, a plaintiff calling after a car accident may be ready to file a claim within 48 hours, but if the call goes to voicemail and isn’t returned until 72+ hours later, the urgency is lost and the case may be assigned to a competitor.

42%

Unqualified Leads Dilute Attorney Time in High-Volume Case Pipelines

Without case-specific call routing and client lead qualification, civil litigation firms waste valuable billable hours on inquiries that don’t meet eligibility criteria—such as non-compensable claims, expired statutes of limitations, or cases outside the firm’s practice areas. For instance, a firm specializing in medical malpractice may receive 15–20 calls per week from individuals with property damage or contract disputes. Without automated legal intake screening, these calls consume attorney time that could be spent on high-potential cases, directly impacting billable hour protection and case acquisition rates.

78%

Critical Witness or Opposing Counsel Updates Lost Due to Voicemail Delays

In civil litigation, time-sensitive information—such as a witness’s availability, a last-minute settlement offer, or a change in court date—can make or break a case. Yet 78% of potential clients are lost when calls go unanswered due to delayed responses. A real-world example: a paralegal fails to receive a call from a key witness about a new piece of evidence, and the firm misses the filing deadline for a motion. This failure not only jeopardizes the case but may result in malpractice exposure. Proper time-sensitive information capture is essential for court date coordination and opposing counsel communication.

Protect Billable Hours

By filtering unqualified leads through automated legal intake screening—such as verifying statute of limitations, jurisdiction, and case type—Answrr prevents attorneys from being interrupted during critical case work. A mid-sized civil litigation firm with 8 attorneys reported a 67% reduction in non-billable interruptions after implementing case-specific call routing. This directly protected 180+ billable hours per month, equivalent to nearly 1.5 additional full-time attorney hours dedicated to case preparation, discovery, and trial strategy.

Secure, GDPR-Compliant Call Handling

All client data is encrypted with AES-256-GCM and stored in GDPR-compliant data centers, with full ownership retained by the firm. This ensures compliance with ethical rules governing client confidentiality, especially when handling sensitive information from plaintiffs in personal injury or employment discrimination cases. The system supports secure witness contact management and court date coordination, with all call logs and intake notes stored in a HIPAA-compliant, audit-ready format for compliance audits.

Real Results from Real Businesses

We lost three personal injury leads in one month because we were in court during peak calling hours. Since switching to Answrr, we’ve captured every case inquiry—even during a two-week trial. The AI qualifies leads by checking injury type, insurance status, and statute of limitations before routing to the right attorney. We’ve closed 12 new cases in the past 90 days that would have otherwise been lost. This isn’t just efficiency—it’s revenue protection.

Managing Partner, Thompson & Reed Civil Litigation Group, Civil Litigation Firms

I was skeptical about AI sounding natural, but the system seamlessly handles calls about settlement offers, witness availability, and court date changes. One time, a client called at 8:45 PM with a last-minute deposition update—Answrr captured it, flagged it as urgent, and alerted our lead attorney before the next morning. That saved us from missing a key filing deadline. It feels like a real legal assistant, but with zero downtime.
