Is Voksha cheaper than a traditional legal answering service?

In almost every case, yes, and by a wide margin. Traditional legal answering services (the human operators who take a message and page you) typically charge $1-2 per minute or $200-500 per month for a base package covering 100-150 minutes, with steep per-minute overage after that. A legal intake call that runs 8-10 minutes, which is typical when the operator is capturing case type, incident date, and contact information, can cost $8-20 on a per-minute plan. Run 60 of those calls a month and you are paying $480-1,200, and the operator still cannot check your calendar, pre-qualify the caller against your practice areas, or sync the intake into Clio or MyCase. Voksha's Premium plan at $99 a month covers 150 calls (about $0.66 each within the included allotment) and performs the qualification and scheduling steps directly, so there is no separate step where a paralegal has to call the lead back to book the consultation. The gap widens further against services marketed specifically to law firms, some of which charge $300-800 a month plus per-lead fees for "premium" intake screening. Voksha's flat $1 overage rate and lack of per-lead or per-minute surcharges make monthly costs predictable, which matters for firms budgeting marketing and operations spend against a fixed intake cost rather than a variable one tied to call length.
