Executive answering service

An executive answering service could help you run your law firm. Below we have everything you need to know.

What is an executive answering service?

An executive answering service is a great tool for busy professionals who need more time on their hands to do their work. If you’re spending too much time on the phone, hiring an executive answering service to take phone handling off your plate will get you plenty of time to get things done without ignoring your clients and customers.

Law firms in particular can benefit from an executive answering service because the opportunity cost of a missed lead is extremely high, but being available to answer the phone every time it rings will mean you never actually get to bill your clients. By hiring an executive answering service, you’ll ensure that your calls are answered and you have time to practice the law.
