Sound Familiar?

These problems cost law firms thousands in lost instructions every month.

Enquiries pile up overnight

Potential clients contact you at 9pm. By morning, they've called three other firms.

Your fee-earners answer free questions

"How much does divorce cost?" — solicitors spend hours on calls that never convert.

Unqualified leads waste billable hours

Consultations booked without knowing budget, urgency, or case complexity.

Clients don't understand the process

Explaining conveyancing or divorce timelines 50 times a week isn't a good use of time.

Zero Hallucination Guarantee

The biggest fear with AI for legal: "What if it gives wrong legal information or makes up case law?"

Our chatbot is not ChatGPT. It uses RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) — meaning it can only answer from your approved content: practice area descriptions, fee guides, process explanations, and FAQs that you control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about AI chatbots for law firms.

Yes. The chatbot includes professional disclaimers in all responses, never provides legal advice (only general information), and clearly directs clients to speak with a qualified solicitor for specific advice. All interactions are logged for regulatory purposes.

We integrate with Clio, Leap, PracticeEvolve, ActionStep, Osprey, Tikit, and most UK legal software. New enquiries flow directly into your system with full conversation history and qualification data.

The AI is trained to recognise sensitive topics (domestic abuse, criminal matters, safeguarding) and responds appropriately — providing supportive information, clear disclaimers, and immediate pathways to speak with a solicitor or relevant helplines.

Yes. The chatbot can provide fixed fee quotes, explain hourly rates, discuss disbursements, and set realistic expectations about costs. It follows your pricing structure exactly.

Any area: conveyancing, family law, immigration, employment, wills & probate, commercial, personal injury, criminal defence, clinical negligence, and more. We train the AI specifically on your practice areas.

The chatbot asks strategic questions: matter type, urgency, location, budget expectations, opposing party details (where relevant), and existing representation. Only qualified leads reach your team.

Yes. Integration with Outlook/Google Calendar shows available slots. The chatbot collects client details, books the appointment, and sends confirmations automatically.

Typical timeline: 2-3 weeks for basic setup (practice areas + FAQ), 4-6 weeks for full CMS integration and consultation booking. We handle everything — you review and approve.

AI Chatbot Development for Law Firms — Complete Guide

The Competition for Legal Clients

With over 10,000 law firms in the UK, the speed and quality of your initial response often determines whether you win the instruction or lose it to a competitor.

Key Statistics

  • 78% of clients instruct the first firm to respond substantively
  • 67% of legal enquiries come outside office hours
  • 24-48 hours — typical callback promise (too slow)
  • £150-500 — average cost per acquired client via PPC

AI-powered chatbots provide immediate, intelligent responses at any hour. They gather matter details, qualify against your practice areas and fee thresholds, and book consultations directly into your diary.
