What are the other benefits of client texting?

 

In-app client texting

A major benefit of using NextChapter is the in-app texting feature, making everyone’s life easier. NextChapter is the first bankruptcy software to offer client texting. The app assigns you a local phone number for your firm, so you no longer have to give out your personal cellphone number.

This feature is a game-changer for your practice. Your clients will know right away that you’re a tech-savvy lawyer, which sets you apart from other attorneys in your area.

 

Improves client communication

When you make yourself more available to your clients, you’re able to communicate more often and more effectively. Along with phone calls, meetings, and emails, texting adds another layer to your communication strategy that enhances your interactions and increases availability. With NextMessage, you can set up automated text reminders based on hearing and case dates, as well as send individualized messages to clients.

 

More accommodating to your client

Showing your clients that you care is one of the most important considerations for attorneys. With easy client texting, you’re showing your clients that you put their needs first and are always available should they need you or have a question.

 

Results in a more responsive client

On the other end of the spectrum, texting with your clients allows them to become more responsive and accountable. You can text them reminders about meetings or court dates so you all stay on the same page.

 

Faster, better way to communicate

There’s a reason that everybody texts these days: it’s one of the easiest ways to communicate. Unlike making a phone call, you can view and respond to a text whenever you’re free. This helps you keep ongoing communication. And with NextChapter, you receive an email notification as soon as your client sends a text reply, so you’ll never miss a response.

 

Access to unlimited conversation history

Another benefit of texting is that you’ll always have access to you and your client’s texting history. You can pull up important details instantly with unlimited SMS texting that NextChapter provides.
