Answers the intake line
Your AI receptionist picks up day and night, explains that it's an AI assistant, and asks what kind of matter the caller has: an injury, a family issue, a criminal charge, an estate or a business dispute.
People call a lawyer at the worst moment of their week, and they keep dialing until someone answers. Avoonta picks up or calls back within seconds, takes the intake your firm uses, and books a consultation with the right attorney.

A caller who reaches voicemail often calls the next firm.
Attorneys are in hearings, depositions and client meetings, and a small front desk can only take one call at a time. After 5pm and on weekends, which is when many accidents, arrests and family crises happen, the phone often goes to voicemail.
Prospective clients rarely leave a message and wait. They go down the search results until a person, or something that sounds organized, answers and gives them a time to talk.
Your AI receptionist picks up day and night, explains that it's an AI assistant, and asks what kind of matter the caller has: an injury, a family issue, a criminal charge, an estate or a business dispute.
When someone submits your contact form and asks for a call, your AI Agent dials within seconds and runs the same intake, so they hear from your firm first.
It records names of the other parties, dates and where things happened, so your team can run a conflict check before any consultation is confirmed.
It books consults on the right attorney's Google, Outlook, HighLevel or Cal.com calendar, and transfers live for the matters you mark as urgent, such as someone held in custody.
One install sets up the whole team for your business: who calls, who chases, who answers and who reminds. Each one opens by saying it's an AI assistant.
Calls contact-form inquiries within seconds, runs intake by practice area and books a consultation.

A caller dials your firm at 9:40pm a day after a car accident. Here's how intake starts.
Avoonta works next to your practice management and intake tools. Web inquiries come in by webhook, Zapier, Make or the API, and intake answers and bookings go back out the same way.
Use legal software like Clio, MyCase or Lawmatics? Connect it via Zapier or webhooks.
If answering every call turns one more inquiry a month into a signed engagement, that one matter would likely cover the plan many times over.
Example only. Your inquiry volume, intake length and fees will differ; use your own numbers.
Your AI receptionist takes intake and books consultations. It never gives legal advice, never predicts an outcome, and tells callers that the call doesn't create an attorney-client relationship. Your firm runs its own conflict check before accepting any matter. Outbound callbacks go only to people who asked for one, between 8am and 8pm in their time zone, after a do-not-call check, and every call opens with the AI disclosure.
No. It explains that an attorney has to evaluate the matter and offers a consultation. It never gives legal advice.
It collects the other parties' names and basic facts. Your firm runs the conflict check and confirms or cancels the consult.
Yes. Write intake questions per practice area, and it books with the attorney who handles that work or transfers urgent matters live.
Yes. It speaks 30+ languages, so a caller can do intake in Spanish or Vietnamese and your team gets the transcript.
