A Scheduling Day for Lawyers: Before & After
Without SchedulingKit, a law firm's receptionist spends the morning fielding calls from potential clients, checking three attorneys' Outlook calendars for openings, and manually sending retainer invoices — then following up when they go unpaid. With SchedulingKit, the firm's website offers a consultation booking link per practice area, conflict-check questions screen cases before they're accepted, retainers are collected via Stripe at booking, and each attorney's availability stays current — so the phones quiet down and billable hours go up.
