STAK.for Solicitors
Out of hours answering service for solicitors

Your phones close at 5:30pm. New clients don't.

Wills, probate and moving house are dealt with after work. Stak for Solicitors answers those evening, weekend and lunchtime calls in your firm's name, takes the details and tells your team within 60 seconds.

When calls go unanswered

The gap is bigger than most firms think.

Weekdays 5:30pm – 9pm

After-work callers

People ring about a will, a death in the family or a house sale once their own working day is over.

Saturday + Sunday

Weekend browsers

Weekends are when people compare firms online and ring the ones that look right. Voicemail sends them to the next name.

12:30 – 2pm

Lunchtime cover

A small team can't answer every line at lunch. The divert catches the overflow.

44%

of people who used a legal service shopped around before choosing a provider.

How out-of-hours cover works

Set it once. It runs every night.

01

Divert when closed

Your phone system diverts to your Stak number outside office hours. Your number stays the same.

02

Answered in your name

Callers hear your firm's greeting and are told they're speaking to an AI assistant.

03

Details taken

Name, number, matter type and urgency. It never gives legal advice.

04

Ready for the morning

A summary lands by email and text in 60 seconds, so the first call-back can go out at 9am.
