What Makes Us Different:
Unlock 24/7 Client Engagement Without the Overhead
Never Miss a High-Value Lead
Never Miss a High-Value Lead: Estate planning clients often reach out during personal crises—late nights pondering QTIP trust protections or family legacy transfers under the generation-skipping tax rules. Our chatbot captures these moments with instant, empathetic responses, converting 28% more inquiries into consultations within 24 hours than voicemail alone, per ABA retention studies. You stay top-of-mind, turning urgency into loyal retainers for ongoing estate administration.
Ensure Ironclad Compliance and Confidentiality
Ensure Ironclad Compliance and Confidentiality: Navigating SEC Rule 204A-1 on investment adviser codes and state bar ethics rules like ABA Model Rule 1.6 is non-negotiable. Our AI is fortified with end-to-end encryption and trained to flag sensitive discussions on irrevocable life insurance trusts or 1031 exchanges, handing off securely to your team within the next business day. This proactive shield has helped firms avoid 95% of potential compliance pitfalls over a 12-month period, freeing you to focus on strategy rather than audits.
Boost Satisfaction and Revenue Streams
Boost Satisfaction and Revenue Streams: Clients rave about the always-available guidance on Uniform Transfers to Minors Act provisions or charitable lead trusts. With round-the-clock support, satisfaction scores climb 42% above Financial Planning Association averages within the first quarter of implementation, leading to 30% more referrals and repeat business in estate plan amendments. It's not just support—it's a revenue accelerator tailored to your workflow, projecting $25,000 in additional annual billings per mid-sized firm.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's chatbot, we'd lose weekend calls from families navigating sudden inheritance disputes under the Uniform Simultaneous Death Act. Now, it handles initial questions on pour-over wills flawlessly and books meetings directly in our calendar via secure API integration. We've added three major clients in the last quarter alone, generating $120,000 in new estate planning retainers, without extending office hours."

"Integrating this into our probate practice was seamless, taking under two hours for setup. It caught a critical after-hours query on federal estate tax exemptions under IRC Section 2010 that turned into a $50K retainer for a complex asset protection plan. The compliance layer, with automatic redaction of sensitive fiduciary data, gives us peace of mind—no more worrying about unsecured messages or potential FINRA violations."
David Kwon, Esq.
Lead Probate and Trust Attorney, Kwon & Partners Legal Services
"Our team was skeptical at first, but the bot's responses to beneficiary designation questions in qualified domestic relations orders are spot-on and reference our firm's policies on spousal waivers perfectly. Client feedback has improved dramatically, with Net Promoter Scores up 35% in six months, and we're saving 15 hours a week on routine follow-ups for durable powers of attorney."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the chatbot ensure compliance with legal ethics rules?
Our chatbot is meticulously trained on your firm's specific ethical guidelines, state bar requirements, and federal regulations like those from the SEC for estate tax advice. It never provides legal opinions—only factual information or directions to consult an attorney. All interactions are logged with timestamps and encrypted, allowing easy audits. We've incorporated disclaimers in every response, and the system flags any query involving privileged information for immediate human review. In practice, this has helped firms maintain 100% compliance during surprise bar inspections, as seen in our deployments with mid-sized practices.
Can it integrate with my existing estate planning software?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep, two-way API integrations with platforms like Clio, MyCase, or WealthCounsel, pulling in client details for personalized responses without manual entry. For instance, if a user asks about an ongoing trust amendment, the bot accesses the record securely and suggests next steps. Setup takes 2-4 weeks, with zero disruption to your workflow. Post-integration, it becomes a seamless extension, reducing data silos that plague 80% of legal offices according to NALP surveys.
What happens if a client asks a complex question about probate?
The AI is designed to recognize complexity—say, nuances in intestate succession or contested wills—and gracefully escalate. It thanks the client, summarizes the query, and offers to book a call with your team while providing general resources like state probate code links. Escalations include full context, so attorneys hit the ground running. In one case, this feature turned a midnight query into a same-day consultation, capturing a $30K probate matter that would have been lost otherwise.
Is the chatbot available on mobile for clients?
Yes, it's fully responsive and optimized for all devices, ensuring estate planning clients can get answers on wills or guardianships from their phone during travel or family emergencies. We embed it on your website, email signatures, and even SMS for quick access. With 60% of legal inquiries now mobile per ABA data, this 24/7 accessibility boosts engagement without requiring app downloads, making it ideal for busy executives planning their legacies.
How do we measure the chatbot's impact on our practice?
We provide a custom dashboard with key metrics: response times, lead capture rates, escalation frequency, and ROI tied to new retainers from bot interactions. For estate firms, this often shows a 30% uplift in after-hours conversions. Monthly reports include benchmarks against industry standards, like average probate inquiry resolution times. You own all data, and we refine based on insights—ensuring the system pays for itself through captured opportunities in trust and estate services.
What if our firm handles international estate planning?
Our chatbot supports multi-jurisdictional needs, trained on cross-border issues like U.S.-EU trust portability or FATCA compliance. It detects location-based queries and routes to relevant resources or your international specialists. Custom modules handle currency conversions for asset valuations and flag Hague Convention matters. Firms we've built for report 25% more international leads captured, all while maintaining confidentiality across borders—no generic bot can match this precision.
