The High-Stakes Problem for Estate Planning & Probate Lawyers
Missed Calls During Business Hours: Losing Critical Estate Planning Leads
During peak consultation periods—such as tax season or after a family member’s passing—78% of clients hang up without leaving a voicemail if they don’t reach a live person. For estate planning and probate lawyers, this means missed opportunities to guide clients through urgent matters like drafting a Last Will and Testament, appointing a Trustee, or initiating estate administration. A single missed call can delay the entire process, especially when a client is navigating the emotional aftermath of a loved one’s death and needs immediate clarity on their legal responsibilities.
Delayed Probate Case Startups Due to Unresponsive Legal Teams
With 42% of probate cases delayed due to unresponsive legal teams, estate planning firms risk losing credibility and client trust at a critical juncture. For example, when a surviving spouse calls to initiate probate for a deceased partner who died intestate, every hour of delay increases stress and the risk of asset mismanagement. Without immediate contact, the executor may fail to file the necessary documents on time, leading to court-imposed delays, increased fees, and potential disputes among beneficiaries.
No After-Hours Support for Time-Sensitive Estate Planning Needs
Clients often reach out after hours during emotional crises—such as a sudden hospitalization, the death of a parent, or the need to appoint a Durable Power of Attorney for ailing family members. Yet 91% of these callers hang up when they hit voicemail. This is especially problematic in cases involving minors, where a guardian must be appointed quickly, or when a client needs to update their Letter of Intent to reflect a recent life change. Without after-hours availability, firms lose high-intent leads and risk reputational damage.

Why Estate Planning & Probate Lawyers Choose Answrr
Capture Every Lead
Answrr captures 100% of inbound calls—even at 1:17 a.m. when a client calls about a parent’s sudden passing and needs to start estate administration immediately. The AI receptionist confirms the client’s name, gathers key details (e.g., whether a Last Will exists, if the deceased was intestate), and instantly books a consultation with a qualified estate planning attorney. In one case, a client was scheduled for a 9:00 a.m. appointment the next day—just 45 minutes after the initial call—ensuring no delay in initiating probate proceedings.
Book More Consultations
Answrr automatically syncs with your firm’s calendar and books estate planning consultations in real time. For example, a client calling at 10:30 p.m. to discuss setting up a revocable living trust for retirement planning is immediately routed to available attorney slots. The system confirms the appointment, sends a confirmation email with a downloadable Power of Attorney template, and even reminds the client to bring their beneficiary designations to the meeting. This reduces manual follow-ups by 70% and increases consultation conversion by 57%.
Build Client Trust Instantly
The AI receptionist handles sensitive topics with precision—such as digital asset inheritance, guardianship for minors, or managing a contested estate—using industry-specific language. When a client calls about a deceased sibling’s unclaimed cryptocurrency, the AI asks clarifying questions (e.g., ‘Was a Letter of Intent created?’), explains the role of the Executor, and schedules a consultation with a digital asset specialist. This ensures no client is left confused or discouraged during a vulnerable moment.
Real Results from Real Businesses

In just six weeks, we’ve scheduled 22 new estate planning consultations, including three complex cases involving irrevocable trusts and minor beneficiaries. Our conversion rate has increased by 41%.”

“A family called at 11:45 p.m. after their father passed unexpectedly—no will, no named executor. Answrr answered, asked about the estate’s assets, confirmed they needed to file for probate, and scheduled a 7:30 a.m. consultation with our lead probate attorney. The client was so impressed by the promptness that they referred two other families. We’ve since closed three probate cases that would’ve been lost without after-hours support.”
