BILLING PROTECTION

What is a business phone number?

A business phone number gives your firm a dedicated line, local or toll-free, that you and your team can use from any device. It’s a simple way to keep your work and personal life separate.

You never have to share your personal number with clients or invest in extra hardware. With a dedicated business caller ID, you can call, text, and respond to inquiries - all within the LEX Reception app.

Questions
and answers

Can't find the answer to your question? 


Call us 24/7 at (800) 800-9995 or email us at grow@lexreception.com

Can this be my main firm number?

Yes. You can share your LEX Business Phone Number anywhere, on your website, business cards, Google Business Profile, and marketing materials. Make and receive calls, and send or receive texts, all from the LEX app on your phone or computer.

What happens if I ever leave? Can I port my number out later?

Your business presence is yours to keep.

• If you choose a new number with LEX, it’s yours to take with you. You can move it to another carrier or VOIP provider at any time. Your brand and the trust you’ve built around your number stay with you.

• If you forward your existing firm number to LEX, you stay in control. Remove the call forwarding rule with your carrier whenever you need to.

Can my business number ring me first? Can I control when calls go to you?

You’re in charge of your calls. Set up your call routing right in the app, any way you want. Here are some common configurations: 

• Always forward: Every call goes straight to a real person at LEX. Great for when you’re in court or busy.

• Ring first, then forward: Your phone rings first. If you can’t pick up, we answer for you.

• Based on availability: Set yourself as unavailable in the app, and we’ll handle your calls until you’re back.

• Based on schedule: After hours, calls go straight to us. You set the schedule.

• Do not forward: If you’d rather, let calls go to voicemail or end the call. Your choice

What happens if I'm in court or unavailable?

You won’t miss anything. Just open the LEX Reception app, set your status to unavailable, and LEX will start answering calls, handling intake, and booking consultations until you’re free. If you’ve set it up, urgent calls can still reach you through live transfer. When you’re ready, switch your status back and calls will come to you again.

How fast can I go live?

Most firms can go live the same day or next. If your setup is more complex, with multiple scripts or integrations, it may take a few days. We move at your pace, so you’re never left waiting.

You’ll have a dedicated Client Success Manager guiding you every step of the way. Firms tell us our onboarding is a highlight: hands-on, personal support from real people who care about your success.
