Bilingual intake for South Florida law firms

AI Voice Receptionist

It answers on the second ring. At 11 PM. On Sunday.

A voice agent that picks up when your team can’t, offers English or Spanish on the first turn, collects what you need, books real availability, and escalates anything it should not handle.

HOW IT WORKS

How it works

  1. 1

    Calls route to the agent on your rules, after hours, on overflow, or every call.

  2. 2

    It opens bilingually: "Thank you for calling ‹firm›. ¿Prefiere continuar en español o en inglés?"

  3. 3

    It collects name, callback number, reason for calling, and availability, then books into your live calendar.

  4. 4

    Anything outside its scope, case questions, complaints, anything urgent, escalates to a human path you define.

  5. 5

    The call, transcript, and recording attach to the client record, and a pipeline card is created.

DETAILS

The specifics

English and Spanish, chosen by the caller
Books into live availability, no double-booking
Escalation rules you define, including in-custody and deadline calls sent straight to an attorney
Transcript and recording attached to the record
Configurable retention on transcripts and recordings, because matter detail in a transcript is confidential and should not be retained by default
Scoped to scheduling and firm information. It does not give legal advice or answer case questions

BY VERTICAL

How this differs across firm types

One system, four configurations. Every plan runs on the same underlying build, what changes is which fields, stages, and rules apply.

Personal Injury

Takes the accident date and the injuries and books the consultation; it does not evaluate the case or quote a value.

Immigration

Books consultations and answers scheduling questions in Spanish or English; any question about the case itself routes to staff, never answered by the agent.

Family Law

Books consultations; a stated safety emergency or domestic-violence disclosure escalates to a person immediately, not into a queue.

Criminal Defense

Takes the charge and custody status; an in-custody call or an imminent hearing routes straight to an attorney on the path you define.

COMPLIANCE, READ THIS ONE CAREFULLY

Voice AI is the highest-risk feature on this site, and we treat it that way. Call recordings and transcripts routinely contain confidential matter detail, and Florida is a two-party-consent state for recording, so the agent discloses that the call is recorded at the start of every call.

Just as important for a law firm: an automated voice answering a prospective client cannot give legal advice or say anything that reads as it, which is where the unauthorized-practice-of-law line sits. So the agent is scoped narrowly, and the wording is yours to approve, so nothing it says drifts into advising on a case.

So this agent is scoped to scheduling and logistics only. It takes a name, a callback number, a reason for calling, and books availability. It does not discuss case detail, and it does not improvise a case answer. We configure what it may discuss, what it must escalate, and how long transcripts persist.

For in-custody and deadline-driven matters, an escalation path to an attorney is built and tested before the agent goes live. No exceptions, no “we’ll add it later.”

SOUTH FLORIDA

Florida’s two-party-consent rule for call recording is not a formality here, a firm fielding calls from Coral Gables to Brickell needs the disclosure to actually land in whichever language the caller opens with. And the first-turn language choice matters more in this market than almost any other single design decision in the product: a caller who has to fumble through an English menu to reach a human rarely stays on the line.

FAQ

Questions we get on the consult call

Yes. It discloses that it is an automated assistant and that the call may be recorded, Florida is a two-party-consent state, so that disclosure happens at the start of the call, in the caller's language. We do not deceive callers, and for this audience that would backfire anyway.
