VERDICT

Should I use LEX Reception?

More than a 24/7 answering service for law firms - lexreception.com

Depends. Buy if you run a solo or mid-size law firm and want 24/7 legal-trained receptionists with intake and payments built in. Skip if you're not a law firm, or you won't call sales because pricing isn't published.

Best for

Not for

  • Very low call volumes — a ~$425/mo floor won't pencil out
  • Teams wanting a cheap generic answering service
