AI Receptionist for commercial solicitors
Commercial clients choose the firm that sounds like it's already on their side.
The problem
A startup founder needs a shareholder agreement reviewed urgently — their investor is pushing for signatures by Friday. They call three commercial firms. The one that answers immediately, captures the context, and books the same-day call gets a client worth £20,000/year.
What Ava does
Ava handles commercial law enquiries with the efficiency and intelligence commercial clients expect — capturing matter type, urgency, company turnover, and preferred engagement model — then booking the initial call before the client's Friday deadline becomes your problem.
A retained commercial client: £10,000–£100,000/year in fees. First-impression quality determines whether they become a retained client or a one-off transaction.
Hear it in action
This is what your callers hear.
- Good afternoon, Stratton Commercial Law — how can I help?
- Hi, I need a shareholder agreement reviewed urgently. Our investor wants it signed by Friday.
- Understood — that's tight but workable. Can I ask roughly how many shareholders are involved and the company's turnover? That helps us resource this correctly.
- Three shareholders, we're pre-revenue but we've just raised £500k.
- Perfect — we work with a lot of early-stage companies. Can I book a call for this afternoon? Our commercial partner can review the heads of terms and give you a clear view by end of today.
