Spanish Support

With more than 20% of the American population speaking Spanish as a primary language, it is in most business owners’ best interests to have a means of appropriately and effectively communicating with this audience. At LCC, we provide Spanish support for legal intake that can help grow law firms, reduce overhead costs, and boost credibility in the Spanish-speaking community.

Key Steps In The Legal Call Center Process

The legal call center process involves specific steps to ensure effective communication and support for legal inquiries. While the exact process may vary depending on the organization, here are the key steps typically involved:

Call Answering

The process begins when a client or individual contacts the legal call center via phone, email, or other communication channels. The call center representative answers the call and collects basic information such as the caller’s name, contact details, and a brief summary of their legal issue.

Screening

After gathering the initial information, the call center representative determines the appropriate destination for the call. They may need to route the call to a specific attorney or legal department based on the nature of the inquiry or the client’s requirements. If the agent believes that the case is not appropriate for the law firm, they may make recommendations or provide information as established by the law firm.

Information Gathering

Once the call is routed to the appropriate attorney or department, the representative collects additional information from the caller to better understand the legal issue. This may involve asking specific questions related to the matter, gathering relevant documents, or obtaining any other necessary details.

Legal Advice or Guidance

Based on the evaluation, the attorney provides legal advice or guidance to the caller. They explain the options available, discuss potential outcomes, and offer recommendations on how to proceed. It’s important to note that the advice provided may not constitute formal legal representation but rather general guidance.

Case Management

The attorney or legal professional assigned to the call then evaluates the gathered information to assess the legal situation. They review the facts, analyze any applicable laws or regulations, and consider relevant precedents or similar cases to determine the best course of action.

Throughout the call center process, it is crucial to maintain accurate documentation and records. The attorney or legal professional takes notes during the call, records relevant details, and updates the case management system or client files accordingly.

Follow-up

In some cases, the legal call center may need to follow up with the caller after the initial conversation. This can involve scheduling appointments, sending relevant documents, or providing additional information as required.

 Referrals

If the matter falls outside the scope of the legal call center’s capabilities, a referral to an appropriate legal expert or organization may be made.
