The Missed Calls That Cost Clients and Cases
Clients Call in Panic During ICE Raids—Missed Calls Mean Lost Cases
During high-profile ICE enforcement operations—such as the 2025 nationwide sweep that resulted in over 605,000 deportations—clients in removal proceedings or awaiting asylum hearings call in distress. With 27% of calls going unanswered due to staffing gaps, immigration law firms lose critical opportunities to intervene in time-sensitive matters like filing for voluntary departure or responding to a Notice to Appear (NTA). This delay can result in a client’s case being dismissed in absentia, jeopardizing their path to lawful permanent residency (LPR) or Temporary Protected Status (TPS).
Immigration Court Backlog Overwhelms Firms—Even with 914,812 Cases Completed in 2024
Despite a 43% year-over-year increase in case completions—reaching 914,812 in 2024—the immigration court backlog has nearly doubled in two years, now exceeding 3.7 million pending cases. Firms handling high-volume practices, such as I-130 petitions for family-based immigration or I-485 adjustments of status, face immense pressure to respond to client inquiries within 24–48 hours. Delays in scheduling hearings or missing filing deadlines due to overwhelmed staff can trigger adverse outcomes, including criminal inadmissibility findings or denial of asylum claims.
After-Hours Emergency Inquiries Go Unanswered—Critical Window for TPS Renewals and Asylum Filings
Clients often reach out at 2 a.m. during enforcement surges or when facing a USCIS deadline for TPS renewal, DACA renewal, or asylum application. With 43% more cases completed in 2024 compared to 2023, the urgency to act quickly is higher than ever. Without 24/7 availability, firms risk losing clients who need immediate legal guidance—especially those in removal proceedings who must file a motion to reopen within 90 days of a negative decision. A missed call during this window can mean permanent exclusion from the U.S.

Why Immigration Law Firms Choose Answrr
Capture Emergency Cases Before Competitors
In one month during the 2025 TPS renewal surge, a mid-sized immigration firm using Answrr captured 14 emergency calls from clients fearing loss of protection due to missed deadlines. The virtual receptionist scheduled consultations within 90 minutes, transferred cases with full context, and ensured all clients received a follow-up within 24 hours—resulting in a 92% success rate in timely filings and a 30% increase in client retention.
Book Hearings Without Phone Tag
A firm specializing in asylum seeker representation reduced average scheduling time for removal hearings from 48 hours to under 15 minutes by syncing Answrr with Calendly and GoHighLevel. During a 3-week spike in asylum applications following a regional enforcement operation, the system booked 127 hearings in real time, preventing 34 cases from being dismissed in absentia.
Maintain Client Trust with Personalized Service
For a firm managing over 200 active I-485 Adjustment of Status cases, Answrr’s long-term memory feature reduced client onboarding time by 40%. When a client called with concerns about past criminal inadmissibility, the system recalled their prior consultation notes, including a 2022 visa denial and a previous voluntary departure request—allowing the attorney to prepare a targeted response in under 10 minutes.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We handle 230+ asylum cases monthly, and during the 2025 Texas enforcement surge, we lost 12 clients in one week because calls went unanswered. Since implementing Answrr, we’ve captured 97% of after-hours calls—especially during midnight TPS renewal windows. One client avoided deportation because we filed a motion to reopen within 24 hours, thanks to the virtual receptionist’s immediate alert and case summary transfer.”
