PHOENIX (July 15, 2021) –– Alert Communications’ parent company, Nexa Receptionists Holdings LLC (“Nexa”), the leading provider of tech-enabled business services for companies of all sizes across the US, today announced it acquired Client Chat Live, a full-service live chat and text company based in Austin, TX. The acquisition expands Alert’s tech-enabled and people-powered service offerings with Alert Chat & Text, now bringing a full omnichannel solution to its call answering, client intake, contract and retainer, and mass tort and class action campaign services.

Rather than relying solely on artificial intelligence (AI) and automated bots to drive customer communication, both organizations built solutions that merge technology and expertly trained professionals to deliver authentic experiences at scale. By acquiring Client Chat Live’s proprietary technology and its skilled staff under the Nexa portfolio, Nexa brands like Alert add live chat and text messaging to their suite of services.

“Client Chat Live has become a trusted name in the industry and bringing it into the Nexa family allows us to further expand our mission of empowering businesses of all sizes to improve customer service, marketing and sales at scale,” said Jeff Mosler, CEO of Nexa and Alert. “It is a perfect fit for Alert because Client Chat Live already had a strong business model in legal services, and their client retention is among the strongest we’ve seen in the SMB and mid-market categories.”

As Alert and its customers experience tremendous growth, its leaders are continually looking for ways to leverage new technology and innovation to support law firms and businesses across the legal industry in scaling operations and revenue. The tech-enabled, people-powered foundation Nexa and Alert were built upon enables businesses to achieve this and deliver human-centered experiences to their clients and prospective clients whether that’s through voice, web, chat or text.

“Fifty-one percent of consumers say a business needs to be available 24/7 and 41 percent expect businesses to provide chat and text customer service,” said Mosler. “With this new omnichannel solution, Alert can now service our clients across all of the channels that their clients desire, maximizing opportunities for more cases, higher retention and better service.”

“Since our inception, our mission has been to support the success of our clients by helping them drive growth through human-powered technology, and now through Nexa and Alert, we’re able to deliver on that mission with a more complete service offering,” said Jon Cumberworth, CEO of Client Chat Live. “Not only are our two companies a strategic fit, but we’re also aligned in our culture and work philosophies—focused on integrity and a dedication to our employees and clients.”

The acquisition will bring a rich-feature set to Alert’s already robust service offerings with Alert Chat & Text. Features include:

  • 24/7/365 People-Powered Live Chat & Text: A real person available to answer questions, schedule appointments and qualify cases, even in the middle of the night and on holidays. 
  • Live Phone Transfer: Connect qualified leads directly to a live Alert agent for real-time lead conversion, scheduling, improved client experience and more. 
  • CRM /CMS Integration: Connect with your CRM and/or CMS to manage all lead and client data in one place. 
  • Chat Feature Installed On Your Website: Easily install text capabilities or a chat box on your website that pops up automatically to boost engagement. 
  • Highly Customized Experience: Provide custom scripts and graphics so that the entire experience represents your brand. 
  • Reporting & Analytics: Receive reports with chat and text details, and integrate the tool with analytics to improve client service, track leads and grow law firm revenue. 

“We’re looking forward to this next chapter and are excited to be able to bring this technology to our customers and business partners,” Mosler said. “We’re also looking forward to welcoming the Client Chat Live team to the Nexa and Alert family.”
