A Virtual Paralegal can significantly boost your law firm's business and revenue by enhancing website engagement, qualifying potential clients, and streamlining your client acquisition process. By greeting and interacting with visitors on your website 24/7, a Virtual Paralegal can help reduce bounce rates, gather essential information to identify prospects, and save lawyers time by filtering out unqualified leads. This technology enables your firm to focus on billable work, ultimately increasing revenue and promoting growth.
First and foremost. You run a business. You are a Lawyer. You need new clients to stay in business, make revenue and pay yourself and your staff for the services you provide. You want more business to enable you to do more of this. Yes you are a Lawyer and an expert in your field, however, that alone will not bring revenue. In order to run a successful Law Firm you need new clients paying you new revenue.
A Virtual Paralegal will bring you 1/3 more business or a 1/3 more revenue to your Law Firm and here is why:
- You have a Website, Potential Clients come onto the Website, you worry, how long will they stay? What is my actual bounce rate? Is my Website too busy, am I offering too much information? Not enough information or is my website not inviting enough? Take away all this worry with a Virtual Paralegal that sits on your Website and greets and qualifies New Clients. It does all the work for you 24/7.
- A smart Virtual Paralegal will give you the vital information you need to qualify potential clients. What do they want? When do they want it? What is their timeline? Do they have a Budget? What are their details and what is their story?
- Most lawyers spend at least 1/3 of their day doing non-billable work, taking cold calls which do not become billable cases. A Virtual Paralegal can find out what you need to know to turn a Suspect into a Prospect then into a Qualified Lead. You suspect they need your services and after answering specific questions, you uncover that they are either a prospect, qualified lead or unqualified, and move forward with an action to help the Prospects and Qualified Leads, thus you save time, get more clients, reduce unnecessary workflow, reduce non billable hours and easily increase your revenue by 1/3.
- Yes, warm and fuzzy feelings are all part of the satisfaction of your clients, you did great, you helped the Clients and they are happy with the services you have provided them and all of your expert legal advice. It all starts with your Virtual Paralegal that works 24/7 with a friendly greeting at the doorway to your Website.
