1. Use your actual unanswered calls to define the response path
The useful local question is narrower: which calls from people seeking your firm go unanswered, and what should happen next? Bosseo’s public AI Answering description supports team-first routing, with the AI stepping in when nobody answers within 20 seconds. It also describes 24/7 coverage for nights, weekends and holidays. Review your phone records by time, disposition and caller type before choosing the rule.
Recommended approach
Bring a representative call history to a consultation. Decide whether unanswered calls should receive the same greeting, a practice-area-specific path, or a different escalation rule for current clients and potential new clients. Treat any proposed timing or routing as a decision to approve, not an assumption about your firm.
