24/7
multilingual intake across all time zones
Immigration law has a unique challenge: your clients often speak limited English, call from different time zones (or different countries entirely), and face strict USCIS deadlines that make every day count. The American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) reports that immigration attorneys receive an average of 47% of their calls from non-native English speakers, and 31% of inquiries come from outside the continental US.
Traditional answering services struggle with immigration calls. Operators can't communicate in Spanish, don't understand visa categories, and can't assess whether a caller's situation is deadline-critical. LexCall's AI voice agent solves every one of these problems. It conducts full intake conversations in English and Spanish (with additional languages available), understands immigration-specific terminology (I-130, I-485, NTA, EOIR, TPS, DACA), and asks the right questions: current immigration status, visa category, pending applications, USCIS receipt numbers, and upcoming deadlines. Immigration firms using LexCall report capturing 15 additional qualified leads per month — many from after-hours calls that would have gone to voicemail.
How it works
Configure immigration intake
Set up your practice areas (family, employment, asylum, deportation defense), language preferences, and consultation process.
Multilingual answering
The AI automatically detects the caller's language and switches to English or Spanish. Callers feel comfortable sharing details in their native language.
Immigration-specific qualification
The AI asks about visa type, current status, pending applications, USCIS deadlines, and the specific immigration goal (green card, citizenship, work permit).
Deadline-aware intake
Calls involving USCIS deadlines, removal proceedings, or expiring status are flagged as urgent and escalated to your attention.
Immigration Law — Features
Native Spanish intake
Full intake conversations in Spanish — not just a greeting, but the entire qualification process. Critical for immigration practices where 40–60% of callers speak Spanish.
Visa category expertise
The AI understands H-1B, L-1, O-1, EB-1/2/3, F-1 OPT, K-1, U-visa, T-visa, TPS, DACA, and asylum categories — asking relevant questions for each.
USCIS deadline tracking
Collects receipt numbers, filing dates, and deadlines. Cases approaching USCIS deadlines are flagged for immediate attorney attention.
Removal defense intake
Handles calls about NTAs, immigration court hearings, ICE detainers, and bond hearings with appropriate urgency and sensitivity.
Cross-timezone support
Clients calling from India, Mexico, Philippines, or Europe at their local business hours are answered immediately, regardless of your office's time zone.
Document checklist guidance
The AI can provide general guidance on common document requirements for the caller's case type, setting expectations before the consultation.

FAQ
Does the AI really conduct full intake in Spanish?
Yes. LexCall's AI conducts the entire intake conversation in fluent Spanish — greeting, qualification questions, FAQ answers, and consultation booking. It's not a translation overlay; it's native-level conversation.
Can it handle different immigration case types?
Absolutely. LexCall is configured for family-based, employment-based, asylum, removal defense, naturalization, DACA, TPS, and more. Each case type has specific intake questions.
How does it handle calls about ICE enforcement?
Calls mentioning ICE, detainers, raids, or removal proceedings are treated as urgent. The AI collects essential information quickly and can escalate to your cell phone for immediate response.
What about clients calling from other countries?
LexCall works 24/7 across all time zones. A caller from the Philippines at 3 AM Eastern gets the same professional intake as a local caller at 2 PM. No timezone limitations.
