# Answering Routine Client Questions From the Firm’s Own Documents

## The challenge

A law firm's clients and staff kept asking the same questions about intake steps, retainer terms, and case status, and paralegals answered each one individually by digging through engagement letters and firm procedures.

## What we built

An agent trained on the firm's actual engagement letters, intake procedures, and firm policies answers administrative questions directly from real source documents instead of guessing. It sticks to procedure and policy, never legal advice.

## The result

Clients and staff get accurate answers immediately, and paralegals spend less time on repeat questions.
