Hire, Schedule meeting, Decline

How it works

  1. Open your case in My cases and view incoming proposals in the proposal review panel.
  2. Read each attorney's message, fee structure, and experience for your practice area.
  3. Schedule a meeting to talk before committing, or send a hire request when you are ready.
  4. Decline proposals that are not a fit — the attorney is notified with your reason.
