Does AI Answering replace our front desk?+
Bosseo describes it as a safety net. Calls ring your team first, and the AI steps in when nobody answers within 20 seconds. Your firm should confirm that this route fits its phone system and operating policy.
What information does the system provide after a call?+
Bosseo says the firm receives a full transcript, a case summary and caller information. Calls are also described as classified as Potential New Client, Current Client or Other. Confirm the destination and configuration for your firm during the consultation.
Can it handle more than one call at a time?+
Bosseo’s public page states that the system handles up to 20 simultaneous calls. That is a stated system capability, not a prediction about your firm’s call volume or required capacity.
Can the system decide whether someone has a legal case?+
Do not treat the classification or summary as legal advice, a conflict determination or a suitability decision. Your attorneys and intake staff remain responsible for those judgments and for deciding how urgent matters are handled.
What should we prepare before a consultation?+
Bring your current call routes, practice areas, office hours, unanswered-call rules, after-hours policy, intake questions, escalation contacts and preferred record destination. Also identify which details the firm does not want an automated phone interaction to address.
How should we judge whether AI Answering is working?+
Review answer coverage, whether summaries and transcripts reach the right owner, whether classifications help triage and whether callbacks are completed. Do not treat the system as a guarantee of leads, signed matters, revenue or any particular outcome.
