AI receptionist for Law Firms

AI books consultations, captures practice-area interest, and transfers attorney requests — without giving legal advice.

An AI receptionist for law firms gives every inquiry a path to a consultation. zallo.ai books consults, captures practice-area interest, and transfers attorney requests — and it never gives legal advice.

Why coverage matters

01

Inquiries hit a hold queue

Prospective clients call several firms. The one that answers and books a consult first usually gets the matter.

02

Attorneys shouldn't screen calls

Every intake call that reaches an attorney is billable time lost to scheduling and screening.

03

Legal advice can't come from the front desk

Intake has to stay on the right side of the line — collect details and book, never advise.

After-hours inquiry

Someone calls at 9pm about a lease dispute. AI captures the practice area, books a consult for Tuesday, and confirms by SMS.

"Do I have a case?"

A caller asks for an opinion. AI explains that it can't give legal advice and books a consultation with an attorney.

Existing client needs their attorney

A current client calls in. AI transfers them to their attorney or takes a detailed message using your rules.
