Automate Your Estate Planning Intake & Consultation Booking
Stop losing high-value trust and estate leads to slow response times. Our AI chatbots qualify prospects, answer complex probate questions, and sync directly with your Clio calendar 24/7.
Estate planning firms face a unique challenge: the gap between a prospect's realization that they need a trust and the actual execution of documents. With the average comprehensive estate plan ranging from $2,500 to $5,000, every missed call or delayed email response represents significant lost revenue. Most firms struggle with the friction of the first stepβprospective clients are often overwhelmed by the complexity of probate laws or the emotional weight of end-of-life planning. Furthermore, the administrative burden of coordinating document signings and following up on trust funding checklists often pulls paralegals away from billable work. By implementing an AI-driven interface, firms can bridge this gap, providing immediate answers to common questions about Revocable Living Trusts or Power of Attorney, while ensuring that high-intent leads are moved immediately into the consultation phase without manual intervention.
Problems We Solve
After-Hours Lead Loss
Prospects often research estate planning late at night when your office is closed. Our AI captures these leads instantly, preventing them from calling a competitor the next morning.
Manual Intake Inefficiency
Eliminate the back-and-forth of basic data collection. The AI gathers family structure and asset overview details before the first meeting, making the initial consult 40% more productive.
Trust Funding Bottlenecks
Automate the follow-up process for trust funding. The chatbot can provide clients with checklists for retitling assets, ensuring the estate plan is actually functional and funded.
Inconsistent Review Reminders
Many firms lose recurring revenue by failing to trigger annual plan reviews. The AI identifies existing clients and prompts them to schedule updates based on life changes like births or deaths.
Low-Value Inquiry Filtering
Filter out pro-bono seekers or simple document requests that do not fit your firm's profile, ensuring your attorneys only spend time on high-value trust and probate cases.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the AI chatbot compliant with attorney-client privilege?
While the chatbot is an intake tool and not a legal advisor, we configure it to include clear disclaimers that no attorney-client relationship is formed until a retainer is signed. Data is encrypted and handled according to industry security standards.
Can it distinguish between Probate and Estate Planning?
Yes. We program specific logic branches to identify if a user is looking to create a plan (Estate Planning) or if a loved one has already passed (Probate/Administration), routing them to the appropriate workflow.
Does it work with WealthCounsel or ElderCounsel?
Absolutely. We can design the chatbot to collect the specific data points required for your WealthCounsel drafting software, significantly reducing the time spent on manual data entry.
How does it handle complex questions about tax law?
The AI is trained to provide general educational information about concepts like the gift tax exclusion or stepped-up basis, but it is strictly programmed to defer specific legal advice to your attorneys.
Can it help with trust funding follow-ups?
Yes, the bot can be used as a client-facing portal to guide families through the funding phase, answering questions about how to retitle bank accounts or update beneficiary designations.
What happens if a lead is high-priority?
We can set up instant SMS or email alerts for your intake team when a lead meets specific criteria, such as an estate value over a certain threshold or an urgent planning need.
