The Cost of Missed Calls for Employment Law Firms
After-Hours Employment Law Emergencies Go Unanswered, Losing High-Value Cases
Employment law firms face critical emergencies—such as wrongful termination claims, workplace harassment allegations, or imminent EEOC filings—outside business hours. With 60% of legal emergencies occurring after 5 PM or on weekends, and 35% of law firm calls going unanswered, firms risk losing high-value cases before they begin. A single missed call from a client facing a looming deadline can result in a lost case with a lifetime value of $15,000–$50,000, especially in complex employment litigation.
Intake Calls Drain Legal Staff Time, Delaying Case Preparation
Legal assistants in employment law firms spend an average of 25–30 minutes per intake call gathering details on employment contracts, discrimination claims, wage violations, or retaliation allegations. This time could be better spent on legal research, drafting motions, or preparing for depositions. With 80% of potential clients not calling back after missing a call, firms lose 1–2 qualified leads per week—directly impacting their client conversion rate and case pipeline.
Single Phone Lines Cause Busy Signals During Peak Hours, Blocking Critical Employment Law Leads
During high-volume periods—such as after a major company layoff or following a high-profile workplace incident—employment law firms experience up to 15–20 calls per hour. With only one phone line, busy signals block 2–3 potential clients weekly who are seeking immediate legal help. These missed calls often involve urgent matters like unpaid overtime claims or pending discrimination charges, where every hour counts in preserving evidence and meeting statutory deadlines.
