How Answering Legal Can Help You Relax This Summer

You don’t want to be trapped indoors right now. You don’t want to be staring at your computer screen any longer. The days are long, the sun is shining, and you have places outside your office you want to be. The beach and the boardwalk are calling your name. Your passport hasn’t been used in ages. It’s time to soak up the sun and travel! So what are you still doing in your office, wasting precious summer days away?

Oh right, clients.

It’s true, you really can’t afford to let a single one of your calls go to voicemail these days. Every call to your law office could result in a potential client, and you NEED a live voice answering each of those calls if you hope to win new business. Today’s impatient consumers avoid dealing with automated machines like Hamptons’ beach regulars avoid the Coney Island hot dog eating contest.

Statistics show that 80 percent of callers sent to voicemail fail to leave messages because they do not think they will ever be heard.

If you’re one of the many attorneys who can’t risk missing out on significant clients this summer, actually escaping the office probably seems like an impossibility.

Here’s How To Save Your Summer

No one should have to suffer indoors all summer long, which is why Answering Legal is here to help attorneys get their well deserved time off this July and August. Our 24/7 legal intake receptionist team can keep your phone lines completely covered while your away from the office, and ensure that you don’t miss out on a single new client opportunity.

How It Works

Step 1: When you’re ready to hit the road and begin your time off this summer, just let Answering Legal know that you would like all of your in-office calls directed to us.

Step 2: You’ll get to fully enjoy your time away from the office, knowing that all of your callers will be directly handled by one of our highly trained legal intake receptionists. First time callers to your office will be taken through a proper legal intake process, while current clients will be given the opportunity to leave a detailed messages. Our receptionist will also be able to answer any FAQs your callers might have.

Step 3: While you’re away from the office, you’ll be able to monitor calls from potential and current clients right from your laptop or smartphone. Our legal intake receptionists will record all relevant personal and case information from your client’s calls, and send it to you via SMS text and/or email message once the call concludes.
