Call Answering Service for Law firms
As a busy legal team, you’ll know just how challenging it can be managing inbound calls to your business. It can be costly and time consuming, recruiting, training and managing in-house receptionist(s). Inbound calls are often your first opportunity to make a positive impression on prospective clients. Reaching out to a properly trained call answering service can help. Firstly, you’ll be allocated a team of extremely professional receptionists that will field all inbound calls to your business, as if they were on your site. Secondly, you won’t need to manage the HR side of your outsourced team either. Leave that to us! But, you will enjoy all of the benefits of a dedicated telephone answering service tailored specifically towards law firms. Finally, If you’re looking to flexibly scale your practice up or down then our service is the one for you. During busy periods we can adapt to your workload while in quieter periods you can reduce the level of attention your team requires. -
Switchboard Service for Law Firms
Larger legal practices will benefit from our switchboard service for law firms. If you have a reception team in place but need additional cover for times when your switchboard is left unattended, this service is ideal for you. Lunch breaks, holidays, sick days, weather, industrial disputes - these are times that might cause your reception team to be away from the switchboard. But inbound calls still need to be answered, with any missed call a potentially missed opportunity. Our switchboard service for law firms provides you with a dedicated team of trained and experienced receptionists who will field all inbound calls for your team. You’ll never miss a call again!
Why Choose Us

01 Why use a Telephone Answering Service when you can answer your own calls?
Making a great first impression of your firm is critical in the competitive world of law. Your clients don’t want to leave a voicemail or speak to an auto-attendant machine. A telephone answering service ensures every single call to your business will be answered by a trained human, regardless of whether you are in a meeting, out at lunch or off work on holiday.
A professionally trained team of receptionists who will respond to all calls and ensure that all are redirected or responded to in the right way. You can even choose to use a telephone answering service as a backup to your existing switchboard so it covers lunch breaks, team days out and annual leave or just when a call is missed. This can be seamless and sitting in the background as a safety net.
All you do is divert your number on no reply or engaged. Simple as that.
02 Can I go to a meeting/lunch/holiday and not miss an opportunity?
A telephone answering service is available during every hour of the working day, even if you’re not around. You you can attend a vital lunch meeting or go on annual leave without worrying about missing important client calls or prospective client opportunities.
03 Couldn't I just hire a receptionist?
You could… but the recruitment process is often tough and time consuming. Also there’s no guarantee that the person you hire will provide the right level of service you require and they’ll need constant management, which will take up even more of your time. Recruitment, HR management, Fixed Overhead.
A telephone answering service is provided by an external firm who will be accountable for delivering the best quality output for your practice. They’ll also never take sick days, lunch breaks or holidays – we promise!
