Filevine Launches LOIS Voice Agents to Scale Front Desk and Intake Operations

AI agents cover the intake desk when the team can't, working from the firm's own case and lead data on top of the phone system it already has

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Filevine today introduced LOIS Voice Agents, AI agents that answer a law firm's inbound calls, conduct triage and intake by using the firm's approved questions, and automatically route calls based on reason for calling. Every call lands in the firm's case management system with its recording, AI-generated summary, and transcript attached to the right lead.

Thirty-five percent of phone calls to law firms go unanswered, potentially costing firms new clients or leaving current clients feeling ignored. Many third-party answering services and general-purpose AI reception tools can't update the case files or employee calendars to schedule appointments. They can take a message, but the firm often has to retype the details by hand, if they reach the firm's records at all. Emails, texts, documents and notes all live where the team works, but what a client said on the phone usually doesn't.

"Having a capable voice on the other side of the phone is an important part of the client experience. Every firm says it's responsive. Then the phone rings during a deposition and nobody picks up," said Michael Anderson, Chief Product Officer at Filevine. "And when someone does answer, what the caller said ends up on a sticky note or nowhere at all. Email, texts and documents have lived in firms' systems for years, but calls haven't. LOIS Voice Agents are designed to answer calls, ask firm-approved questions, and place the conversation where authorized team members can find and review it."

A LOIS Voice Agent is designed to answer the call, collect caller information, and identify the stated reason for the call. Based on the firm's configurations, the agent can associate generic phrases such as "I was hurt" or "I have money problems" with defined categories such as "motor vehicle accident" or "bankruptcy," help identify a potential practice area and service-area match, and ask the firm-approved intake questions associated with that category. Firm staff can review the resulting information and determine how to proceed.

After each call, the recording is transcribed, summarized, and scanned for details such as names, dates of birth, incident dates, police report numbers and insurance carriers. Firms can configure the confidence threshold for automatically associating a call with a lead. Any call that scores under the threshold is placed in a review queue, allowing staff to validate the proposed lead match or link the call to a different lead.

For attorneys, LOIS Voice Agents mean fewer interruptions and better-prepared first conversations. Instead of receiving only a voicemail or a scribbled message, an attorney picks up a lead with the caller's account, key dates and a summary already attached, and is pulled in only for the calls that need a lawyer.

LOIS Voice Agents are now available in beta. Visit filevine.com/lois/voice-agents to learn more and request information about beta participation.
