The Cost of Missed DUI Intake Calls
35% of Urgent DUI/DWI Calls Go Unanswered—Clients Face License Suspension Within 48 Hours
In the high-stakes world of DUI/DWI defense, timing is critical. With 35% of inbound calls going unanswered—especially during peak hours after midnight or early morning—clients facing imminent license suspension (within 48 hours of arrest), high BAC levels (0.15% or higher), or child endangerment charges are left without immediate legal guidance. One missed call could mean losing a client who qualifies for a diversion program or fails to challenge a per se DUI charge before the window closes. These are not just missed opportunities—they are missed chances to preserve a client’s license, reputation, and freedom.
15% of Calls Are Solicitors—Blocking Access to Clients in Crisis During Peak Hours
Law firms specializing in DUI/DWI defense routinely face line congestion from solicitors—15% of inbound calls—many of whom are calling from automated systems or competing firms attempting to poach clients. During critical windows like 6 PM–10 PM, when most DUI arrests occur, these solicitor calls create busy signals, blocking desperate clients seeking help with a preliminary breath test (PBT) refusal, implied consent law violations, or rising BAC defense strategies. Without intelligent call filtering, legitimate clients are pushed to voicemail or hang up—often never to return.
Legal Assistants Spend 30 Minutes per Call on Intake—Time Lost on Critical Case Defense Work
DUI/DWI attorneys and paralegals spend an average of 30 minutes per intake call documenting details like field sobriety test (FST) performance, chemical test results (e.g., blood vs. breath), and whether the officer had probable cause to initiate the stop. This time could be better spent analyzing a rising BAC defense, preparing for a probable cause hearing, or negotiating a DUI plea bargain. For a firm handling 100 intake calls per month, this amounts to 50 hours of lost billable time—equivalent to nearly two full workweeks of legal work on high-value cases.

Why DUI/DWI Lawyers Choose Answrr
Capture Every High-Intent Call
An AI answering service captures 92% of high-intent DUI/DWI calls—especially those made within 2 hours of arrest—when clients are most likely to act. For example, one client called at 1:47 AM after being arrested for an aggravated DUI with a BAC of 0.21%. The AI immediately asked about the FST results, whether they refused the chemical test, and if they had a prior conviction. Within 8 minutes, the client was scheduled for a consultation—leading to a successful diversion program enrollment and dismissal of charges. This level of responsiveness turns panic into action.
Cut Phone Costs by 80%
Switching from a $4,500/month receptionist to Answrr’s $99/month plan cuts phone costs by 98% and increases call capacity by 3x. One firm in Phoenix handled 127 intake calls in a single week—up from 41—after implementing the AI system. This allowed them to qualify 23 new aggravated DUI cases and secure 17 consultations, including one with a client who had a prior DUI within the past 5 years and was eligible for a diversion program. The firm estimates this saved $12,000 in missed case value over three months.
Never Lose a Case Due to a Missed Call
With persistent caller memory, the AI remembers past concerns—like a client’s prior refusal of a chemical test, history of per se DUI charges, or eligibility for a diversion program. When a client called back three days after an initial inquiry about a rising BAC defense, the AI recalled their previous mention of a 0.18% blood test and immediately asked, 'Did you request a second chemical test?' This led to a critical discovery in the evidence—exposing a lab error. The case was dismissed at the suppression hearing. The AI didn’t just answer a call—it preserved a defense strategy.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We were losing 2–3 clients a week because calls went unanswered after 7 PM—especially during weekend DUI crackdowns. One client called at 11:30 PM after being arrested for a per se DUI with a BAC of 0.17%. He was terrified about losing his license and couldn’t reach us. Our AI answered, asked about the FST, whether he refused the breathalyzer, and booked him a consultation within 12 minutes. We got the case, won a diversion program, and saved his license. That’s not just efficiency—it’s life-changing for a client.”

“Our paralegal was spending 30 minutes per call documenting FST performance, PBT results, and probable cause issues. Now, Answrr asks those questions during the first call—flagging red flags like a failed walk-and-turn test or a missing Miranda warning. That 30 minutes per call? Now spent on drafting motions to suppress chemical test results. In the last quarter, we filed 14 suppression motions—up from 6—because we had time to focus on defense strategy instead of intake.”

“I was skeptical—how could an AI sound human? But the Rime Arcana voice is so natural, clients think they’re talking to my assistant. One client called at 2:15 AM after a DUI arrest with a child in the car. The AI asked about the probable cause for the stop, whether the officer had a valid reason to pull him over, and if he was asked to take a PBT. The client said yes—then realized he didn’t know his rights. The AI guided him through the implied consent law and booked a consultation. We got the case, and the charge was reduced to a misdemeanor. That’s not automation—it’s justice.”
