Will AI Answering replace our Haddon law firm’s front desk?+
Bosseo describes it as a backstop. Calls go to your team first, and the AI steps in when nobody answers within 20 seconds. Confirm the routing and forwarding arrangement for your existing phone system before proceeding.
Can it handle calls outside normal office hours?+
Bosseo’s public page describes coverage for nights, weekends, holidays, and overflow. Your firm still needs to define what the system may say, what information it should collect, and how urgent matters are escalated.
What information can the system capture?+
Bosseo says the system can guide callers through their situation and capture case type, timeline, contact details, and other case information. Your firm should approve the fields for each practice area and review whether the resulting summary is sufficient for a human callback.
Where do the transcript and summary go?+
Bosseo states that a full transcript, case summary, and caller information can be delivered to your inbox or case-management system. Confirm the selected destination, access permissions, retention approach, and ownership of follow-up during consultation.
Can it distinguish new inquiries from current clients?+
Bosseo describes classifications of Potential New Client, Current Client, or Other, as well as case-type tagging. Those labels should support—not replace—your firm’s conflict, urgency, and client-service procedures.
How should we evaluate whether it is working?+
Start with observable operations: whether calls route correctly, required information is captured, summaries arrive, urgent calls are assigned, and callbacks are completed. Do not assume that population, call coverage, or a product capability proves demand, retained matters, revenue, or return on investment.
