Why You’re Missing New Clients and Don’t Even Know It - You Need An Answering Service!

When you’re a solo practitioner, one of the most important things you need to do to convert calls to clients is answer your phone when they call. Unfortunately, due to the many responsibilities that come with being a solo practitioner, this isn't always possible. In fact, you may not even be aware that you’re missing phone calls. Sometimes, mobile networks get jammed, and you don't even see a call on your cell phone until well after the person has hung up, left a message in your voicemail, or moved on to the next attorney they found while searching Google.
This is why you need to hire a legal answering service such as Answering Legal. We’ll provide you with a professional, highly trained answering service and treat each of your phone calls as a potential client. A legal answering service also handles phone calls as though the representatives are in your office, and they patch callers through to your cell phone, so you can speak to them in real time.
Why Should I Hire Answering Legal?
Answering Legal is a great fit for law firms of any size due to how we are able to customize and modify how we handle your phone calls. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, Answering Legal will work with you to create scripts for current clients, potential new clients and non-client-related phone calls. Our representatives are trained to provide 24/7 legal answering services, so you will never miss another potential new client because your office was closed and everyone was gone for the day. We also help you respond to all inquiries in a timely manner.
Answering Legal Also Offers Premier Technology
Answering Legal uses cutting-edge technology and products paired with highly trained virtual receptionists who can easily discern between new client calls and routine follow-up questions. As technology continues to advance, many law practices are setting up virtual offices to keep up with the demand of additional clients and to extend their reach into other locations without having to pay rent, utilities, and employees. Not only do virtual offices enable law firm employees to enjoy the freedom of working from home or another remote location, but a legal answering service also directs calls to the right employees while giving clients and potential new clients the impression that a physical office space exists. This helps attorneys keep their overhead low, and it’s a much cheaper and efficient option than hiring a full-time receptionist.
Keep in mind that there are many benefits to hiring a legal hiring service such as Answering Legal. You may not even know about many of the phone calls that you are missing, but with a legal answering service, you will most certainly get every phone call in real time, and you will never have the issue of missing a new client again. In the long run, this will bring in much more revenue and clients that you would have ever anticipated, making a great return on your investment for a legal answering service.
