◆ Reception & phone

The phone that answers itself.

A 24/7 AI receptionist answers your calls in your firm's name, books consultations and transfers the ones that matter — with live human reception, call recording, AI call reviews and SMS all on your own number. It's the whole phone front office, not a softphone bolted onto separate software.

How it works

Every call answered, captured and actioned — in your brand.

1

A call comes in

On your own number, a natural AI receptionist answers 24/7 in your firm's name — or a live ORLA receptionist in business hours.

2

It books or routes

The AI understands what the caller needs, books a paid consult, takes a message, or transfers to the right lawyer with a whisper.

3

Nothing gets missed

Every call is recorded, transcribed and captured as a lead in your CRM, with AI call reviews flagging follow-ups.

What you get

A complete phone front office, built in — no separate phone bill.

Why it matters

A missed call is a lost client — and small firms miss them in court, in meetings and after hours.

Never miss a client

The AI answers when your team can't — 24/7, in your firm's name.

No separate phone bill

Reception, AI and your number are bundled — not a per-seat add-on you bolt on.

One brand, one system

Callers hear your firm; the call, the booking and the matter are all in one place.

ORLA vs VXT vs Availo

Where the ORLA phone front office fits against a legal softphone and a generic automation tool.

VXT is a legal softphone you bolt onto practice management — a human still has to pick up. Availo is a generic automation tool (missed-call text-back), not built for law firms. ORLA answers for you, in your brand, inside the system that runs your whole firm.
