Lighten the bureaucratic burden with an SMS solution built for law firms.
In a legal office, it’s crucial to keep in touch with an array of clients. Missed appointments, forgotten papers, and miscommunication are frustrating problems that slow down cases. SMS is a tool that can reduce these common communication issues to increase efficiency and help your clients navigate the complex legal process. A text message solution is great for lawyers and their clients as it provides a streamlined, efficient communication method.
SMS is accessible, quick, and preferred. In fact, the average SMS message is opened 98 percent of the time, compared to 22 percent of emails. Plus, 97 percent of the population owns a phone with text messaging capabilities making it widely accessible. Additionally, your clients want to text lawyers. Studies show over 50 percent of the public prefers to communicate with businesses via SMS than an email or phone call.
From getting new clients to internal communication, there are numerous ways legal teams can use SMS. Below we share a few to note.
Use SMS marketing to promote your legal services to existing or interested clients. You can share cost information, case wins, or other materials that may encourage clients to choose you and your firm.
Set up automated texts to send to any leads who request more information. This ensures these clients receive prompt replies, no matter when they reach out.

These features are all available and managed in Textline’s central dashboard.

The reality is navigating legal issues is complicated. Help your clients stay informed with a personalized two-way texting service. Answer their questions, provide support, and reassure them. That extra communication will not go unnoticed.
