The High-Stakes Problem for DUI/DWI Lawyers
Missed Calls During Critical Hours: 27% of DUI Arrests Occur Between 10 PM–4 AM
DUI/DWI arrests peak between 10 PM and 4 AM—during this window, 27% of calls go unanswered. Clients are often arrested after a late-night event, facing immediate legal urgency: breathalyzer results are volatile, field sobriety test (FST) recordings degrade within 72 hours, and Miranda rights must be addressed within the first 15 minutes of detention. Missing a call during this window risks losing critical evidence and client trust, especially when a client’s blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is still measurable and legal defenses like improper FST administration or equipment calibration can be challenged.
Lost Leads to Competitors: 85% of Voicemail-Only Calls Go Unanswered—Many Are Immediate DUI Clients
When a client is pulled over and arrested for DWI, they often call the first DUI attorney they find—typically within 30 minutes of release. If your firm’s voicemail is the only option, 85% of those callers never return. In 2023, 12,429 lives were lost in alcohol-impaired crashes, with 29% of fatal drivers aged 21–24—your ideal client demographic. A delayed response means your firm misses the window to secure a case before the prosecution files charges, the client signs with a competitor, or the breathalyzer data is purged.
Inconsistent Follow-Up: 27% of Calls Missed During Critical 48-Hour Window for Evidence Preservation
After a DUI arrest, the first 48 hours are crucial for preserving evidence: breathalyzer test records, field sobriety test videos, and chemical test results are often deleted or overwritten by law enforcement after 72 hours. Yet 27% of calls during this window go unanswered. Without immediate contact, clients delay seeking legal counsel, risking the loss of key defenses such as improper probable cause for the stop, failure to administer the FST correctly, or challenges to the breathalyzer’s calibration. This delay can permanently compromise a case before it even begins.

Real Results from Real Businesses
“We were losing 3–4 DUI clients per week because we couldn’t answer calls after midnight. After switching to Answrr, we now capture 94% of after-hours calls—clients are asked if they were given a breathalyzer test, and we qualify them instantly. One client called at 1:17 AM after being arrested for OVI in Columbus—our AI booked a consultation before he even got home. We secured his case, challenged the breathalyzer calibration, and got the charges reduced to a misdemeanor. Our conversion rate jumped 40% in just 60 days.”

“Our biggest challenge was inconsistent follow-up—clients would wait days to call back, and by then, the breathalyzer data was gone. Now, our AI assistant calls back within 2 minutes if the client leaves a message, asks about the Field Sobriety Test, and books a consultation with a lawyer experienced in diversion programs. In the past year, we’ve reduced case intake delays by 73% and increased our diversion program enrollment by 41%—a direct result of faster client engagement.”
Linda Chen
Lead Attorney, Chen & Associates Criminal Defense, DUI/DWI Lawyers
“I used to spend 4 hours a day returning calls from clients who’d been arrested for DWI. Now, my AI receptionist handles all after-hours inquiries—asking about probable cause, Miranda rights, and whether the chemical test was administered properly. It books consultations and sends automated reminders. I’ve reclaimed 18 hours a month for case prep, and we’ve successfully challenged 12 breathalyzer results in the past 9 months—something we couldn’t do before due to delayed client contact.”
