1. Put the 20-second handoff under review
Bosseo’s public AI Answering page describes a team-first route: calls ring your people first, and the AI steps in when nobody answers within 20 seconds. It also describes coverage for nights, weekends, holidays and overflow. That makes the first Chandler decision operational rather than demographic. Chandler is a municipality in Maricopa County, Arizona, with a 2020–2024 ACS five-year population estimate of 280,136 and a margin of error of 145. That figure describes the city; it does not establish your firm’s call volume, demand or staffing requirement. Review your actual phone settings and identify the moments when a caller currently reaches voicemail, a busy signal or an unclear after-hours message.
Recommended approach
Map the current ring sequence for your Chandler office, including lunch periods, court days, holidays and simultaneous calls. Then decide whether a 20-second unanswered-call handoff is appropriate for each line, department and urgency category.
