AI Phone Answering for Law Firms That Captures Every Lead
A potential client calls at 7pm while you're reviewing case files. They won't leave a voicemail — they'll call the next firm. VoiceAnswers picks up every call, qualifies leads by practice area, captures case details, and schedules consultations — 24/7. Starting at $99/month.
Try it with your real callers and real intake calls for 14 days — if it doesn't work for your firm, you pay nothing.

What Can VoiceAnswers Handle for Law Firms?
VoiceAnswers handles the most common law firm phone calls: lead qualification, case detail capture, practice area routing, and consultation scheduling. Each is handled end-to-end — not just recorded.
Intelligent Legal Intake
The AI captures case type, situation details, urgency, and contact information — qualifying leads before they ever reach your desk. A caller describes a car accident from last week with injuries and medical bills — the AI identifies it as a personal injury matter, captures the accident date, injuries, and insurance details, and flags it as a qualified lead for your PI attorney.
Practice Area Routing
The AI identifies the caller's legal matter and matches it to your firm's practice areas so the right attorney gets the right leads. If your firm handles family law and estate planning, a caller asking about a divorce gets routed to your family law team while a caller asking about a will goes to estate planning. Matters outside your practice areas are noted so your team can refer appropriately.
Conflict Detection Alerts
When enabled, the AI asks callers if there is an opposing party they can name. If provided, the name is flagged on the intake for your team to run a manual conflict check before engaging. A potential client names the opposing party in a business dispute — your team sees the flag on the dashboard and can check your records before the first meeting, avoiding ethical issues.
Consultation Scheduling
The AI books initial consultations based on attorney availability and informs callers of consultation fees upfront when configured. A caller with a contract dispute wants to meet this week — the AI checks your available slots, books a Thursday afternoon consultation, mentions the $150 consultation fee, and sends the confirmation to both the caller and your team instantly.
