An accident victim calls at 9pm. It goes to voicemail, and they call the next firm on Google and sign with them that night. That case, and every referral from their family and friends after it, now goes to them. Your AI intake line answers every call in one ring, 24/7, qualifies the case, books the consultation and texts you the details.
Call our demo line and play the client: a car crash, a slip and fall, a dog bite. Ask if you have a case. Ask for a real person.
Our demo line answers as "Harper & Cole Injury Law," a sample firm. It qualifies the case and books a consultation, just like it would for you.
Ava: Harper and Cole Injury Law, this is Ava, and this call may be recorded. How can I help you today?
Caller: I was in a car accident last week and I think I need a lawyer.
Ava: I'm so sorry that happened. Let's get you some help. Were you hurt in the accident?
Caller: Yeah, my back. I went to urgent care the next day.
Ava: I'm glad you got checked out. Did the police come to the scene?
Caller: Yes, there's a report.
Ava: Good. Do you already have a lawyer working on this?
Caller: No.
Ava: Okay. An attorney can speak with you tomorrow, Tuesday. Would morning, between 9 and noon, or afternoon, between 1 and 5, work better?
Caller: Do I even have a case? The store said it was my fault I slipped.
Ava: That's a great question for the attorney. I can't give legal advice, but I can get you a free consultation so they can answer it. When did the fall happen?
Caller: About two weeks ago.
Ava: Thanks. Were you hurt, and have you seen a doctor?
Caller: I already have a lawyer but I'm not happy with them.
Ava: I understand. Since you're currently represented, the firm can't advise you on the case, but I can take a message and have someone call you back about your options. What's your name and the best number to reach you?
Example conversations showing how the demo agent is set up to respond.
When an injured caller hits voicemail, most don't leave a message. They call the next firm on Google. Move the sliders to match your firm:
You could be losing about
a month in fees from cases that went to another firm
Assumes only 1 in 4 of those callers would have signed with you. Callers a week × 4.3 weeks × 1/4 × fee per case. An estimate, not a promise.No software to learn. You answer a few questions and we build and test your front desk for you.
Tell us your practice areas, intake questions, consultation times and which cases should go straight to an attorney.
We set it up with your practice areas and intake questions, test it on real calls, and you call it yourself before it goes live.
Forward calls after hours, when your intake team is busy, or all the time. It's a setting on your phone line, and we walk you through it. You get a text summary of every call.
Asks your intake questions: what happened, when and where, injuries and treatment, police report, insurance, and whether they already have a lawyer.
Hospital stay, truck crash, wrongful death, or an accident today? It marks the call urgent and follows your rules for getting an attorney on the phone fast.
Offers a specific day and time for a free consultation, reads it back, and texts you a case summary within seconds.
Accidents happen nights and weekends. So do the calls. No hold music, no "leave a message."
A friendly, natural voice that handles interruptions and follow-up questions. Call the demo and judge for yourself.
It never says whether someone has a case or what it's worth. It books them with an attorney instead, and screens out spam, vendors and robocalls.
Accidents don't keep business hours.

Hi, I'm Luke Tull, founder of dekstech in Perrysburg, Ohio. I've spent my career in IT and building software for small businesses. Right now we're setting up a small group of personal injury firms by hand. My team and I set up your intake line, listen to how it handles your calls in the first weeks, and fix anything that's off.
Luke Tull, Founder
Luke was phenomenal. Expert quality work, performed quickly and thoroughly. He was attentive to bug fixes, even on Thanksgiving.
I had been having an issue with an API connection on my site and was having no luck getting it fixed until I found Luke. He kept me up to date on the progress at all times and did what I could not find anyone else to do.
Luke and his team were awesome to work with. We had a complex situation that they helped navigate quickly. I'd definitely work with them again.

Most answering services take a message and pass it on. By the time you call back, the client may have signed with another firm. Your AI intake line picks up in one ring, asks your intake questions, books the consultation and texts you the case summary, the same way every time.
No. It never tells a caller whether they have a case, what it's worth or who is at fault. It says the attorney will answer that and books the consultation. It's set up to make clear it isn't a lawyer.
No. Keep your number and forward calls to your intake line: after hours, when your team doesn't pick up within a few rings, or all the time. You can change it anytime.
It sounds natural and handles real conversation, but it won't pretend to be a person if asked. Injured callers care about getting help fast. Call the demo and decide for yourself.
You set the rules. It can screen out represented callers, practice areas you don't handle and calls from outside your state, and take a message instead of booking.
Every intake goes to you by text and email on day one. Tell us what you use (Clio, Filevine, Lawmatics, MyCase, Google Calendar) and we'll go over connection options on the kickoff call.
The $497 plan includes up to 200 calls a month, with no per-minute fees. That covers after-hours and overflow calls for most small firms. Need every call answered all day, or multiple offices? Book a 15-minute call and we'll put together custom pricing. If a busy month pushes you over, we'll talk to you first. No surprise charges.
No. It's month to month and you can cancel anytime.
Call the demo line and hear it for yourself, then get started.
