How it works
- Open your case in My cases and view incoming proposals in the proposal review panel.
- Read each attorney's message, fee structure, and experience for your practice area.
- Schedule a meeting to talk before committing, or send a hire request when you are ready.
- Decline proposals that are not a fit — the attorney is notified with your reason.
Good to know
- New proposals are highlighted until you open them.
- Use search within proposal review when you receive many responses.
