When someone is arrested at midnight, your firm answers.
Criminal cases start with a frightened phone call, usually from a parent, a spouse, or a friend, and usually at night. They call the first firm that picks up. We build bilingual AI intake for Miami criminal defense firms that aims to answer in under a minute, collects what an attorney needs before first appearance, and transfers urgent calls to the attorney on call.
We build the technology and the content. Your attorneys make every legal judgment and approve every word clients see. Nothing we deliver is legal advice. Se habla español.
The short answer
Aday Interactive, Inc. builds AI intake for criminal defense law firms in Miami-Dade and Broward. The agent answers arrest and charge inquiries in English and Spanish at any hour, collects the basics and every party name for your conflict check, and transfers urgent calls to the attorney on call. It never gives legal advice or predicts outcomes.
A jail call and a sealing question need different first minutes.
Here is what people type into ChatGPT and Google for each kind of case, and what the intake agent does with them.
Someone was just arrested
What clients ask
"My son got arrested, what do I do?"
What the agent does
Set up to treat this as urgent at any hour. Collects the person's full name, date of birth, and where the caller believes they are held, then transfers the call live to the attorney on call, and if nobody picks up, texts them an urgent alert with the call summary. Your team moves fast because a first appearance generally happens within 24 hours of arrest (Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.130).
Felony charges
What clients ask
"Felony lawyer Miami"
What the agent does
Collects the charge as the caller understands it, the case number if they have one, and any court date, then books the consult with the right attorney.
Drug charges
What clients ask
"Drug possession lawyer near me"
What the agent does
Collects the charge, the arrest date, and the next court date. It does not ask the caller to describe what happened.
Domestic violence charges
What clients ask
"Charged with domestic violence in Florida"
What the agent does
Collects the other person's name first, so your team can run the conflict check before the consult, since that person may also call your firm. It never takes or passes along messages for anyone else.
Sealing and expungement
What clients ask
"How to expunge a record in Florida"
What the agent does
Collects the old case details and outcome, then books a consult. Eligibility for sealing or expunction (Fla. Stat. §§ 943.059 and 943.0585) is an attorney's call, so the agent never says whether someone qualifies.
Probation violations
What clients ask
"Violated probation, will I go to jail?"
What the agent does
Collects the original case, the probation officer's name if known, and any warrant or hearing date, and marks the record for same-day attorney review.
What gets escalated to your team
The agent is set up to treat a recent arrest, anyone in custody, an active warrant, or a hearing coming up soon as urgent. It transfers the call live to the attorney on call, and if nobody picks up, texts them an urgent alert with the call summary, and tells the caller when to expect a call back.
The rules your intake has to live inside.
Every agent we build is fenced before it says a word. These are the lines that matter most in criminal defense work. Your ethics counsel reviews the full list during setup.
No predictions, no advice
The agent never says a case is weak, a charge will be dropped, or what sentence to expect. Florida Bar Rule 4-7.13 bars predicting results, and only your attorneys advise.
No case facts on the phone
Calls from jail are usually recorded, and family members can become witnesses. The agent collects logistics, not the story of what happened, and leaves that for the attorney.
Names first, for your conflict check
Co-defendants and alleged victims sometimes call the same firm. The agent collects every party name up front and keeps the call to logistics, so your team can run the conflict check before the consult.
No outreach to the arrested
Florida Bar Rule 4-7.18 limits soliciting prospective clients. The agent never contacts people pulled from arrest records. It answers people who reach out.
On every call and message, the agent names your firm, says it is a law firm, and identifies itself as an assistant, never an attorney.

How to read this estimate. It multiplies the numbers you enter, nothing more. It does not count costs, refunds or unpaid bills, seasonal swings, or how much new work your team can take on. The starting values are rough examples, not industry data or results from any firm. This is not legal, financial, or tax advice, and Aday Interactive, Inc. does not promise any result.
