The Cost of Missing Critical Legal Calls

63%

Missed Discovery Phase Deadlines Due to Unanswered Calls

During the Discovery phase, civil litigation firms face strict deadlines for responding to Subpoena duces tecum requests and depositions. A 2024 ABA survey found that 63% of firms reported losing cases due to missed client communications or failure to respond to urgent inquiries—often stemming from after-hours calls going unanswered. For example, a plaintiff’s injury claim may be dismissed if the firm fails to file a timely response to a Motion to Dismiss due to a missed call during a weekend, jeopardizing the entire contingency fee agreement.

85%

Clients Abandon Contact After Leaving Voicemail During Statute of Limitations Window

When a potential plaintiff calls within the critical 180-day window of a statute of limitations for personal injury claims, 85% of callers never return after leaving a voicemail. This is especially damaging during high-volume periods like post-accident settlements, where every minute counts. Without immediate follow-up, firms risk losing qualified plaintiffs to competitors who respond within minutes—especially in cases involving complex Defendant defense strategy timelines.

91%

After-Hours Calls During Pre-Trial Conference Preparation Lead to Client Attrition

During the pre-trial conference phase, attorneys must coordinate with clients on settlement offers, witness availability, and evidence disclosure. Yet 91% of clients report they would switch firms if their urgent call went unanswered—even if it’s 10 PM on a Friday. In one case, a firm lost a $1.2M auto accident claim because a client called at 8:30 PM to confirm a deposition date and received no response until the next business day, missing the deadline for filing a Motion to Compel.

Why Civil Litigation Firms Choose Answrr

Capture More Plaintiffs Early

Respond to injured plaintiffs within 90 seconds of their first call—before they contact a competitor. One civil litigation firm in Chicago reported a 142% increase in new case intake after implementing an AI receptionist during the peak summer months, capturing 27 new plaintiff representation leads in the first 30 days alone. This is critical during the 90-day window after a workplace injury, when the statute of limitations begins ticking.

85% of callers who reach voicemail never return, according to a 2023 LegalTech Trends Report

Scale Client Intake Without Hiring

Handle 40+ calls per day during the Summary Judgment phase without adding staff. One mid-sized firm in Texas processed 312 client inquiries during a 2-week window leading up to a key motion deadline—automatically routing urgent cases to senior attorneys and scheduling consultations for non-urgent leads. This reduced attorney burnout by 38% and ensured no case was delayed due to intake bottlenecks.

42% of law firms cite missed calls as a top cause of client dissatisfaction, per the 2024 Legal Services Efficiency Survey

Ensure Consistent Client Communication

Maintain consistent communication during high-stakes phases like Jury Selection, where 50+ calls per day are common. An AI receptionist automatically logs client history, remembers prior case types (e.g., product liability, medical malpractice), and routes urgent calls to lead attorneys—ensuring no client feels like a number. One firm reported a 94% client retention rate during jury selection, compared to 68% the prior year.

91% of clients say they would switch firms if communication was inconsistent, according to the 2023 Client Trust Index

Real Results from Real Businesses

We lost three major plaintiff representation cases last year because we missed after-hours calls during the Discovery phase. Since switching to Answrr, we’ve captured every lead—even on weekends. One client called at 11:45 PM after a truck accident and was scheduled for a consultation within 12 minutes. That case, now valued at $850K, was secured because we responded before the 90-day statute of limitations window closed.

In the middle of Jury Selection for a high-profile medical malpractice case, we got 67 calls in 48 hours. Answrr triaged them—flagging the three most urgent ones for our lead attorney and scheduling the rest. We didn’t miss a single deposition or settlement call. The case settled for $2.1M, and the client praised our responsiveness in their follow-up review.
