{"faqs":[{"answer":"Our AI SDR and AI voice agents answer, qualify, and book the moment interest arrives — under 60 seconds, 24/7 including after-hours and weekends. When a family member searches for a '24 hour criminal defense lawyer' at 2 a.m., the inquiry gets handled immediately, and the call can be handed to a real person at your firm with full context using your calendar and rules.","question":"How does Worqd handle criminal defense leads that come in at 2 a.m. when my office is closed?"},{"answer":"Yes. Our pipeline recovery and AI systems work with your existing CRM, helpdesk, phone, and document tools — no platform switch required. We find the bottleneck in your response process first, then plug fast follow-up into the path you already use.","question":"Will Worqd work with my firm's existing CRM and intake process?"},{"answer":"Lead networks sell shared leads — the same inquiry goes to multiple attorneys, and the fastest responder wins. Worqd builds demand for your own firm through paid ads, SEO, local SEO, and targeted outreach, so the leads belong to you. Then our AI SDRs qualify every inquiry in under 60 seconds, at 70–80% lower cost per qualified conversation versus a traditional SDR team.","question":"How is this different from buying leads from a legal lead network?"},{"answer":"We start by finding the bottleneck — your buyers, offer, channels, response process, and data — then build the plan and launch. Paid campaigns and outreach can start producing inquiries within days of launch, while SEO compounds over months. From there we learn, improve, and scale what works.","question":"How fast can my firm see results after signing on?"},{"answer":"Poorly optimized campaigns can waste 30–50% of spend on irrelevant traffic. We run demand generation with landing pages built for conversion, test creative at media-buying speed through our AI Creative Lab, and report on outcomes — not vanity metrics. Pricing is scoped on a free growth call and set against the results that matter to you, not the hours we log.","question":"With DUI attorney clicks costing $100 or more, how does Worqd protect my ad budget?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Find the Bottleneck","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"We look at your buyers, your offer, your channels, your response process, and your data — finding exactly where growth is stuck before touching anything."},{"step":"2","title":"Launch Quickly","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"Campaigns, creative, outreach, and AI follow-up go into motion.

Over of online searches happen on mobile devices, and these prospects decide who to contact within minutes. If nobody answers, they call the next firm. Google Ads CPC for terms like 'DUI attorney' routinely command $100 to $200+, and criminal defense lead costs typically range from $50 to $400 per lead.
