Start with the calls your team cannot answer
Bosseo’s public AI Answering page describes a team-first arrangement: calls ring the firm first, and the AI answers when nobody picks up within 20 seconds. It also describes coverage for nights, weekends, holidays and overflow, with up to 20 simultaneous calls. These are stated product capabilities, not evidence that your firm receives a particular number of calls or needs a particular capacity. For a Seven Corners practice, the useful local decision is how your firm defines its service area. Seven Corners is in Fairfax County, but a firm serving the community may also receive calls from elsewhere in Virginia or from people contacting counsel about matters connected to the area. Do not configure routing from the population estimate alone.
Recommended approach
Review two to four weeks of phone records, voicemail messages and unanswered-call notes. Separate after-hours calls, calls missed during open hours, busy-line events and calls that already reach a person. Then decide which categories should go to the AI, which should remain with staff and which require an immediate human escalation.
