AI for Law Firms

The firm that answers first usually signs the client. We put AI on your phones, your website and your follow-up so every potential client gets an answer in seconds, day or night, and your attorneys only talk to cases you actually take. Done for you, live in 2-3 weeks.

Cyber Dogs AI builds and manages AI intake systems for law firms. An AI receptionist answers every call and website inquiry 24/7, asks your intake questions, screens the matter against your practice areas, and books qualified consultations straight onto an attorney's calendar. Everything else, from reminders to follow-up with prospects who aren't ready yet, runs automatically. We start with an AI Profit & Strategy Blueprint that shows where AI will make your firm the most money, then build it, then manage it.

What AI Looks Like Inside Your Firm

Here's a normal day with AI handling intake. Nobody on your team is replaced. They just stop chasing phones.

  1. 7:42 PM, Tuesday.

    Someone calls after a car accident. Your office is closed. The AI receptionist answers on the first ring, asks your intake questions, confirms it's a personal injury matter in your area, and books a consultation for 9:30 tomorrow. The attorney gets a summary before they finish their coffee.

  2. 11:15 AM, Wednesday.

    A website visitor asks if you handle custody modifications. The chat answers, collects the details, and books a call. A second visitor asks about a patent. You don't do IP, so the AI politely explains that and sends them on their way. No attorney time spent.

  3. 2:00 PM, Wednesday.

    A prospect from last week still hasn't signed. They get a friendly text and email check-in on the schedule you set, and a reply goes straight to your intake coordinator.

  4. Every day.

    Consultation reminders go out automatically, no-shows get a rebooking link, and every conversation is logged so you can see exactly where new matters come from.

Where Your Firm Is Losing New Cases Today

Most firms don't have a marketing problem. They have an answering problem. In a 2024 secret-shopper study of 500 U.S. law firms, 48% neither answered the first call nor called back. (Source: 2024 Clio Legal Trends Report)

Calls that go to voicemail

People with a legal problem call the next firm on the list. Every unanswered call after 5 PM or during a busy morning is a matter that may never come back.

Slow replies to web leads

A contact form that waits until tomorrow is competing with firms that answered tonight.

Attorney time spent on the wrong consults

Without screening, paid consultation slots and attorney hours go to matters you don't handle or can't take.

Staff buried in phone tag

Scheduling, reminders, rescheduling and status calls eat hours your team should spend on client work.

Built for the Way Lawyers Have to Work

Using AI doesn't change your duties to clients, so we build around them. The ABA's first formal ethics opinion on generative AI (Formal Opinion 512, July 2024) points lawyers to their existing duties of competence, confidentiality, client communication and reasonable fees. Our intake systems are set up with that in mind:

  • Confidentiality first.

    Intake conversations stay in your private, encrypted deployment. We don't use your firm's or your prospects' information to train public AI models.

  • No legal advice from the AI.

    The receptionist gathers facts, screens and books. It tells callers it can't give legal advice and routes legal questions to your team.

  • Your rules, your screening.

    Practice areas, service area, conflict-check questions and what counts as an urgent matter are set by your firm and can be changed anytime.

  • Call recording handled correctly.

    Disclosures are configured for the states you operate in, since consent rules for recording calls vary by state.

  • Full visibility.

    Every conversation is logged with a transcript and summary, so attorneys can review what was said.

This page is general information, not legal or ethics advice.

Questions Law Firms Ask Us

Can the AI screen out cases we don't take?

Yes. It asks your intake questions, checks the matter against your practice areas and service area, and only books consultations that fit. Everyone else gets a polite answer and, if you want, a referral.

Will callers know they're talking to AI?

The receptionist uses a natural voice and can introduce itself as your firm's virtual assistant. You decide how it's disclosed, and callers can always ask for a person.

What happens with urgent calls, like someone who was just arrested?

You set what counts as urgent. Those calls can be transferred live to an attorney or on-call staff, or flagged by text immediately.

Does the AI give legal advice?

No. It collects facts, screens and schedules. Legal questions go to your attorneys.

Is client information kept confidential?

Yes. Intake data stays in your private system and isn't used to train public AI models. We also set up call recording disclosures for the states you work in.

Does it work with Clio, MyCase and our calendars?

Yes. We work with the tools law firms already use, including Clio, Lawmatics, MyCase, Filevine, PracticePanther and Smokeball, plus Google and Microsoft calendars. We map the exact connections during your Blueprint and set them up during the build.

How long does it take to go live?

Most law firm intake systems are live in 2-3 weeks after the Blueprint.

What does it cost?

It depends on your call volume and how much you want automated. We start with the AI Profit & Strategy Blueprint, which shows the projected return before you commit to a build.
