More clients now contact law firms on WhatsApp first. They want to know whether you handle their type of matter, how consultations work and what they cost.

What to add to your knowledge base

The AI answers only from content you give it. Start with: Practice areas; Consultation fees and process; Documents to prepare; Office locations; Languages spoken.

Which plan fits?

Pro's escalation rules and analytics suit most firms. Larger firms with many lawyers should consider Business for 20 seats. Every plan includes the shared inbox and knowledge base; yearly billing saves 20%, and Meta's WhatsApp message charges are billed separately.

Pro tip

Add a clear disclaimer in your knowledge base that the AI shares general information only, and route any 'what should I do' question to a lawyer.
