Consultation Booking

Book consultations while they’re on the phone

No “someone will call you back.” No phone tag. Sidebar checks your real-time availability and books the consultation during the call — while the lead is engaged and motivated.

How it works

From intake to appointment in one call

1

Lead qualifies

During intake, Sidebar determines the caller is a potential new client for your practice.

2

Booking offered

The AI offers to schedule a consultation right then and there. No callback needed.

3

Calendar checked

Sidebar checks your real-time availability through Google Calendar, Calendly, or your scheduling tool.

4

Appointment set

The caller picks a time slot. The appointment is confirmed on the call.

5

Both notified

Confirmation sent to the caller and the attorney. Reminders follow automatically.

Benefits

Higher conversion, fewer no-shows

Book while they are motivated

The moment someone calls a law firm, they are at peak motivation. Every hour of delay drops conversion. Sidebar books the appointment while they are still on the phone.

Fewer no-shows

When someone books an appointment during a live conversation, they are more committed than someone who got a callback link in an email. Confirmations and reminders seal the deal.

No phone tag

The traditional flow: caller leaves message, you call back, they do not answer, they call back, you are in court. Sidebar eliminates the cycle entirely by booking on the first call.

Works with your tools

Sidebar integrates with Google Calendar, Calendly, and other scheduling platforms. No new software to learn. It checks your real availability, not a static schedule.

Real scenarios

When booking on the call wins the case

Wednesday, 6:30 PM

Lead calls three PI firms after a fender bender

Without Sidebar

Firm A: voicemail. Firm B: 'Leave your number, we will call you back.' Firm C (you, without Sidebar): same.

With Sidebar

Sidebar answers, runs the intake, and books a consultation for Thursday morning. The caller stops looking. They already have an appointment.
