The Critical Problem for Bankruptcy Attorneys
Missed After-Hours Calls from Clients Facing Immediate Foreclosure or Wage Garnishment
Bankruptcy clients often call between 8 PM and 8 AM—11.25% of all calls—during moments of acute financial crisis, such as receiving a notice of foreclosure or a wage garnishment order. Without an AI phone agent, these high-intent leads are lost. For example, a client struggling with $28,000 in unsecured debt and a pending Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition may call at 1:30 AM after discovering their car is about to be repossessed. If unanswered, they may never return, forfeiting their chance for an automatic stay and potential discharge of debts.
Overwhelmed Intake Teams During Peak Hours Lead to Lost Chapter 13 Filings
During the 12 PM–4 PM window, intake staff at bankruptcy firms are inundated with calls from clients preparing to file Chapter 13 bankruptcy. With 35% of calls going unanswered, many clients—especially those who have already completed a means test and are ready to file—hang up after being routed to voicemail. This results in lost opportunities to help clients restructure secured debt (like mortgages and auto loans) under a 3–5 year repayment plan, potentially leading to foreclosure or repossession.
Clients Lose Confidence When They Can’t Reach a Lawyer During a Legal Emergency
When a client is facing a creditor meeting in 72 hours or a deadline to file a reaffirmation agreement, the inability to reach a lawyer can trigger panic. With 85% of callers who leave a voicemail never returning, firms miss critical windows to guide clients through priority vs non-priority claims, confirm dischargeable debts, or ensure compliance with bankruptcy petition requirements. This erodes trust and damages the firm’s reputation in a high-stakes, emotionally charged environment.

Why Bankruptcy Attorneys Choose Answrr
Capture High-Intent Leads 24/7
Our AI phone agent captures leads 24/7, including after-hours calls from clients facing urgent situations—such as a 2 AM call from a client with $42,000 in credit card debt and a pending creditor meeting. The AI collects key details (e.g., secured vs unsecured debt, whether they’re considering Chapter 7 vs Chapter 13), schedules a free consultation with real-time calendar sync, and routes the lead to the appropriate attorney within 3 minutes. In one case, a client who called at 1:17 AM was booked for a consultation by 1:45 AM—resulting in a filed Chapter 13 petition before their first creditor meeting.
Book Consultations Instantly
The AI instantly books free bankruptcy consultations with real-time calendar sync, eliminating phone tag and lost appointments. For example, a client calling at 2:30 PM during peak hours with a $15,000 medical bill and a pending Chapter 7 filing is immediately offered a consultation slot within the next 48 hours. The system checks availability, confirms the client’s debt type (dischargeable vs non-dischargeable), and sends a confirmation with a link to the bankruptcy petition checklist—reducing intake time by 70% and increasing consultation conversion by 44%.
Build Trust with Personalized Service
The AI remembers critical case details across interactions—such as a client’s means test results, past reaffirmation agreement attempts, or risk of losing their home due to priority claims. When a client calls back 3 days later, the AI picks up exactly where the last conversation left off: 'I see you’re still working on your Chapter 13 plan and want to reaffirm your mortgage. Would you like to schedule a follow-up with your attorney to discuss your repayment plan options?' This personalized continuity builds trust and reduces client frustration in a high-stress process.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We used to lose 4–5 high-intent Chapter 13 clients per week because our phones were off after 6 PM. Since implementing the AI agent, we’ve booked 28 new Chapter 13 cases in just two months—12 of them from after-hours calls between 9 PM and 6 AM. One client called at 1:42 AM after receiving a foreclosure notice; the AI scheduled a consultation within 15 minutes, and we filed their Chapter 13 petition the next day. The automatic stay stopped the foreclosure. That’s the kind of impact we can’t afford to miss.”

“I was skeptical—how could an AI understand the nuances of secured debt, dischargeable vs non-dischargeable claims, or the means test? But after testing it, I was shocked. The AI asked the right questions: 'Are you trying to keep your car?' 'Is your mortgage current?' 'Have you filed before?' It even flagged a client’s $18,000 student loan as non-dischargeable during a Chapter 7 review. We’ve booked 31 new cases in one month, and 80% of those were from after-hours calls. The system feels like a real intake specialist.”

“One client called back after 3 days because they forgot to mention their car was in danger of repossession. The AI remembered the full conversation—our discussion about Chapter 7, their secured debt, and the automatic stay. It said, 'I see you’re worried about your vehicle. We can help you file for Chapter 7 to stop the repossession and potentially keep the car through a reaffirmation agreement.' The client was so relieved they said, 'I thought I’d never get help again.' That’s the trust we’ve built with consistent, accurate, and empathetic service.”
