Why attorneys

Capture the lead before they call the next firm

Prospective clients often reach out after hours or between calls. If they hit voicemail or a slow email reply, they move down their list. Meanwhile, paralegals spend hours coordinating consult times that a tool could handle instantly.

Online scheduling lets prospects book a consultation the moment they're motivated, screens for the matter type, routes to the right attorney, and collects intake up front — so the first meeting is productive and billable time is protected.

Key takeaways

  • Prospects book consultations online 24/7, before they contact another firm.
  • Intake questions at booking screen the matter and prep the attorney.
  • Consults route to the right attorney by practice area.
  • Reminders reduce no-show consults and protect billable time.

In practice

How a law firm runs Bookafy

Picture a small firm with three attorneys across family, criminal, and estate matters. Here's the whole intake loop on autopilot:

  • 1Booking on their website. Prospects book a consultation from the firm site and Google profile, 24/7 — no waiting on a callback.
  • 2Intake at booking. A few questions capture the matter type and key details, so the attorney is prepped before the call.
  • 3Routed by practice area. A family matter goes to the family attorney, an estate question to the estate attorney — automatically.
  • 4Synced to each attorney's calendar. Google, Outlook, iCloud, or Exchange two-way, so court dates and meetings block availability.
  • 5Synced to the CRM. Each consult creates a lead record so nothing falls through the cracks.
  • 6Reminders protect the slot. Text and email reminders (and an optional consult fee) cut no-show consultations.
