DeskTeam

AI receptionist for criminal defense firms

When someone gets arrested, they call right away. Answer.

Arrests happen at night and on weekends, and families call the first firm that answers. DeskTeam picks up, takes the basics and gets urgent calls to you.

An example call: Status: After-hours call · 1:30 am Brooks Defense Law AI receptionist: Thanks for calling Brooks Defense Law. This call may be recorded, and I'm an AI assistant. How can I help? Caller: My son was arrested for a DUI tonight. Brooks Defense Law AI receptionist: I'm sorry. I can book an urgent consultation with an attorney at 8 am tomorrow. Would you like it? Caller: Yes, please. Status: Booked · Tomorrow 8 am consultation

Built for criminal defense firms

Where it earns its keep

Night and weekend calls

Every call gets answered, whenever it comes in.

Urgent transfers

You decide what's urgent, like someone in custody now, and those calls go to your on-call attorney.

Consultation booking

Less urgent calls get a consultation booked into your calendar.

Built to follow the rules

Fast, and careful with your customers

Speed is useless if it gets you in trouble. These rules are built in, and the AI can't override them.

Only people who reached out

It follows up with people who called you or sent you their details. Never a cold list.

Unsubscribe means stop

Every automated email has an unsubscribe link. Anyone who uses it never hears from the AI again.

Never floods anyone

At most 3 automated messages a day and 6 a week to one person, however many times they contact you.

Says it's AI

Every call opens by saying it's an AI assistant and may be recorded, and every automated email says it's automated. It never claims to be a person.

You're always in the loop

Every call is in your dashboard, urgent callers are transferred to you, and leads' replies to its emails come straight to your inbox.

Won't make things up

It answers from your website and your rules. When it doesn't know, it hands the customer to you.

Do I keep my phone number?+
