What attorneys love about ReceptionHQ

What attorneys love
about ReceptionHQ

ReceptionHQ has been one of the best additions to my firm. It gives me so much peace of mind that each call is handled by a warm voice/person.
A MD
Excellent answering service. I am an attorney with several businesses and ReceptionHQ has helped manage my calls.
Cesar Zuniga
ReceptionHQ are great. In my own practice their virtual reception service helps out greatly. I now have time to do real work, instead of answering all of my calls.
Quinton Spencer, The Spencer Law Firm
As a solo attorney with a mostly virtual practice ... I’ve received great feedback on the professionalism of the ReceptionHQ virtual receptionists.
Andrea Paris, Californian attorney
I use ReceptionHQ for after hours for my law firm. I am pleased with everything they do and would recommend them!

FAQs

Yes. This is referred to as “call overflow”.

A lot of companies require their phone calls to be answered only when they are unable to take the call themselves. For example, if you’re away from the office or your in-house receptionist is at lunch, on vacation, or busy on another call and you have multiple calls coming in at the one time.

You can set your business phone number to divert (to the unique local phone number we allocate your business during the free trial setup process) only when the phone rings for more than a specified period (such as after 5 rings) or if your line is busy.

In such instances, our receptionists will then answer the phone as if we were in your office. You’re always in control and can relax knowing there’s always someone available to answer your calls.

Yes.  Your calls are handled by our US-based reception team across Arizona, Florida, North Carolina and Missouri between 5am and 7pm MST every day, ensuring your customers experience professional American voices representing your brand across core business hours.  An after-hours surcharge applies to calls outside 5am-7pm Monday to Friday or on a US Federal Holiday. US-based receptionists are still available to answer calls between 5am and 7pm MST Saturday and Sunday. However, overnight calls are handled by our equally skilled, English-speaking team in Australia – trained to the same high standards and delivering the same quality of service around the clock.

Yes.  Spanish bilingual service is included with every account at no additional cost.  Whether Spanish-speaking callers are common or occasional to your business, we provide customizable options free of charge to ensure exceptional experiences for your Spanish and English-speaking callers.

We have US-based bilingual receptionists available 7 days a week from 5am to 7pm MST, with the exception of Thanksgiving, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day.  After-hours surcharges apply to bilingual call answering on weekends and federal holidays.

Yes, we have a dedicated team of highly experienced receptionists who can book appointments for you. The MyDiary service is ideal for professionals who depend on appointments being made and managed while they are focused on their clients.  Our receptionists can schedule and reschedule appointments, manage cancellations and even take payments in your preferred software.  We support a large number of third-party appointment booking tools and CRMs.  Please contact us for more information.

Yes, we are able to transfer calls to any staff member on any phone (landline or cell).  With our innovative software, we can record availability preferences for each staff member and only transfer when requested.  Individual details can be updated at any time via our online client portal.

We pride ourselves in offering ‘warm transfers’, that is, callers are always announced to you before the transfer takes place.  If you’re unavailable, or if you don’t answer the call, our receptionist will go back to your caller, let them know you’re unavailable, take a message then forward it to you.

We do not blind transfer calls (transfer unannounced) unless you request this.

Yes.  Each staff member and/or department can set their own availability status and decide whether to have their calls transferred or a message taken.  All settings can be updated individually and instantly via the ReceptionHQ client portal.

Yes.  We are able to answer basic questions such as your location, directions to premises, fax number, website, pricing and other general questions. Depending on your plan, you can provide us with detailed call scripts or answers to FAQs to assist your callers.  Just let us know your needs and we’ll set up your account according to your preferred process.
