AI Chatbot for Law Firms (Client Intake + Booking 24/7)
A potential client searches for a lawyer at 11pm on a Sunday. If your website has no response, they move to the next result. Our chatbot qualifies the case, books the consultation, and takes the retainer deposit - while you sleep.
The problem.
Legal matters are urgent by definition. A person in a family law dispute, a business owner facing a contract issue, or someone injured in an accident - they search at any hour and they want an answer now. Most law firms respond within 24-48 hours. The firm that responds in 60 seconds wins the consultation.
What the chatbot does.
The chatbot captures the practice area (family law, personal injury, criminal defense, business, estate planning), collects basic case details without providing legal advice, qualifies whether the firm can take the matter, books the consultation slot, and takes the retainer deposit if required. Every inquiry arrives in your Friday summary report.

Talk to your AI guysCommon questions
Can a law firm use an AI chatbot for client intake?
Yes - and it is one of the highest-ROI use cases for AI chat. The chatbot handles initial intake qualification (case type, jurisdiction, timeline, party details), books the consultation, and routes urgent matters to on-call staff. It does not provide legal advice. It captures leads and fills your calendar.
Is an AI chatbot safe for a law firm from a compliance standpoint?
The chatbot is configured to capture intake information and schedule consultations - it does not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or create attorney-client relationships. A standard disclosure appears on every intake. For HIPAA-adjacent practices (personal injury, medical malpractice), we configure the bot to avoid collecting medical details in the initial intake.
How fast can a law firm chatbot go live?
With Vespio, a law firm chatbot is live in 48 hours. Pre-built intake flows for family law, personal injury, criminal defense, estate planning, and business law are ready on day one. We customise for your practice areas and consultation structure.
What does a law firm chatbot cost?
The done-for-you law firm chatbot is a flat monthly retainer, quoted per firm on a short call. It includes intake flows, consultation booking, retainer payment collection via Stripe, and the Friday summary of all inquiries.
