The Missed Calls That Break Trust in Mediation
Calls Go Unanswered During Critical Intake Windows—Especially After Hours
In family mediation and med-arb cases, 60% of calls from individuals seeking help with child custody, financial disclosure, or domestic violence screening go unanswered after 6 p.m. or on weekends—peak times when clients are most vulnerable and receptive. This gap undermines the Family Dispute Resolution (FDR) process, particularly in high-conflict cases involving Joint Physical Custody arrangements or Child Inclusive Mediation (CIM), where timely engagement is essential to prevent escalation and ensure child welfare. Without immediate response, clients may disengage entirely, jeopardizing the possibility of a Minutes of Settlement or Memorandum of Understanding.
Clients Lose Confidence When Mediation Scheduling Is Delayed or Inconsistent
Mediation & Arbitration Services often face delays in confirming intake appointments due to manual scheduling, especially in complex cases involving Independent Legal Advice (ILA) coordination, domestic violence screening, or multi-party disputes. A 2023 ADR Institute survey found that 38% of potential clients abandoned the process after waiting over 48 hours for a response. This delay is particularly damaging in cases involving children’s arrangements—nearly 60% of family mediation cases—where timely resolution prevents prolonged conflict and supports child-focused outcomes.
High Cost of Missed Opportunities in High-Value Mediation Cases
With 85% of callers hanging up when they reach voicemail, Mediation & Arbitration Services lose critical leads—especially during urgent periods such as post-separation financial disclosure deadlines or court-ordered mediation windows. For example, a case involving a contested settlement agreement with a £150,000 asset split may be lost due to a delayed response, resulting in a £4,000+ legal fee for the client and a lost £2,500 mediation fee for the firm. This inefficiency directly impacts revenue and undermines the cost-efficiency promise of mediation, which typically saves clients £3,000+ compared to litigation.

Why Mediation & Arbitration Services Choose Answrr
Capture More Cases with 24/7 Availability
With 24/7 AI answering, Mediation & Arbitration Services capture leads at 2 a.m. during high-stress moments—such as a parent calling after a child custody dispute escalates. The AI immediately collects key details like 'domestic violence screening required' or 'joint physical custody timeline needed' and routes the case to the appropriate mediator within 90 seconds. This results in a 27% increase in consultations booked, particularly in cases involving Child Inclusive Mediation (CIM), where early intake is critical for child welfare assessments.
Streamline Scheduling for Complex Cases
The AI synchronizes with calendar systems to auto-schedule appointments for multi-party med-arb sessions, including time blocks for Independent Legal Advice (ILA), financial disclosure reviews, and domestic violence screening. For example, in a probate mediation case with three heirs and a contested will, the AI coordinates three separate ILA appointments and schedules the final med-arb session within 48 hours—reducing scheduling back-and-forth by 70% and ensuring all parties are aligned before the session begins.
Ensure Confidentiality and Neutrality
The AI handles sensitive intake questions with neutrality and discretion—such as 'Is there a history of domestic violence?' or 'Do you need Child Inclusive Mediation (CIM) for a child under 12?'—without bias, ensuring confidentiality and compliance with FDR protocols. It logs responses securely and alerts the mediator if a red flag is raised, enabling immediate risk assessment. This is especially critical in cases involving financial disclosure, where early identification of hidden assets can prevent settlement breakdowns.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We were losing 1 in 3 potential clients because our office closed at 6 p.m. After implementing Answrr, we now answer calls 24/7—even during weekend nights when parents are dealing with custody disputes after school drop-offs. One case involving joint physical custody and a child’s special needs was secured within 2 hours of the first call. We’ve booked 40% more consultations in the past 6 months, and our clients consistently mention how responsive and professional we are—especially when they’re at their most vulnerable.”
Linda Chen
Senior Family Mediator & CIM Coordinator, Mediation & Arbitration Services
“Before Answrr, we spent hours manually confirming appointments for med-arb sessions with three parties, including solicitors requiring ILA. Now, the AI auto-schedules the session, sends calendar invites with pre-session forms for financial disclosure, and flags any domestic violence screening concerns. It’s reduced our intake processing time from 3 days to under 2 hours. When a client called at 1:30 a.m. about a sudden change in custody arrangements, the AI booked a new session within 90 minutes—something we couldn’t have done manually.”
Daniel Reeves
Lead Arbitrator, Mediation & Arbitration Services, Mediation & Arbitration Services
“Our referral rate from solicitors has increased by 50% since we implemented Answrr. They now see us as a reliable partner in med-arb processes—especially when we’re able to respond to urgent requests for Minutes of Settlement or Memorandum of Understanding within 2 hours. One solicitor even said, 'I’d rather refer to you than to a firm that leaves my client hanging at 10 p.m.' That level of availability builds trust in the entire FDR ecosystem.”
