1. Start with the calls your team does not answer
Bosseo’s public AI Answering description says the firm’s people receive the first ring. If no one answers within 20 seconds, the AI can step in as a safety net. It is described as covering nights, weekends, holidays and overflow, with up to 20 simultaneous calls. For a Missouri City practice serving callers across Fort Bend County and Harris County, that geographic relationship matters when reviewing call handling: map where your attorneys and intake staff actually work, which numbers serve each office or practice group, and when calls are transferred between locations. Do not use the city’s population as a substitute for an unanswered-call baseline.
Recommended approach
Review several weeks of phone records by time, number, disposition and reason for non-answer. Separate missed calls from abandoned calls, current-client calls and inquiries that were never identified. Then decide whether the AI should act only after the 20-second threshold, during defined overflow periods, or for the full coverage described by Bosseo.
