Does AI Answering replace our front desk?+
Bosseo’s public description says your team gets the first ring and the AI steps in when nobody answers within 20 seconds. It is presented as a safety net for unanswered, after-hours, weekend, holiday and overflow calls, not as a replacement for your front desk.
What information can the AI capture?+
Bosseo says the system guides callers through their situation and captures case type, timeline and contact details. The exact questions, practice-area labels and firm information should be reviewed with Bosseo before implementation.
What does the firm receive after a call?+
The public product description says the firm receives a full transcript, a case summary and caller information, delivered to an inbox or case-management system. Confirm the destination and any supported connection for your firm rather than assuming a particular platform.
Can it distinguish new inquiries from current clients?+
Bosseo says calls are automatically classified as Potential New Client, Current Client or Other. Your firm should still define who reviews each category and how uncertain or sensitive calls are handled.
How should we handle urgent legal calls?+
Set your own urgency definitions, escalation owner and review process. Bosseo describes urgency as something surfaced in the transcript and summary, but the service does not replace your firm’s judgment, legal advice or emergency policy.
How do we evaluate whether it fits a Marlton firm?+
Use Marlton and Burlington County to define the service area, then review your actual phone path, unanswered-call conditions, practice areas, record destination and follow-up ownership. Do not use the local population estimate as a forecast of demand or financial return.
