Based on data reporting from LeadQ, potential clients are most likely to initially contact consumer law firms on Mondays over any other day of the week. 

Nearly 23% of all new clients inquiries during the week occur on Mondays. 

This indicates the importance of making sure your law firm is open and you or a staff member are answering the phones diligently beginning first thing Monday morning each week.

If your firm plans to take a three-day weekend, Fridays are preferable to Mondays for being closed. Fridays see the least number of new client inquiries to consumer law firms, with just 14% of the week’s inquiries occurring on that day.
