Every attorney on LAWCLERK is U.S.-licensed with bar admission and good standing confirmed, and identity checked before they appear on the marketplace. Your client matters stay protected the whole way through.
Before they appear
Every attorney clears each of these checks before their profile ever appears on the marketplace. Only U.S.-admitted attorneys in good standing are approved.
Each attorney clears a government-ID verification through Persona, so the person behind the profile is who they say they are.
LAWCLERK staff confirm the attorney's bar license directly with the issuing jurisdiction. No self-reported credentials.
Only U.S.-admitted attorneys in good standing are approved, always. Anyone who does not clear this gate does not get in.
Once verified, the profile goes live with experience, jurisdictions, focus areas, ratings, past engagements, writing samples, and references on file.
On every profile
Verification is not a black box. Every profile shows you the same facts, so you can choose counsel with confidence.
The jurisdictions where the attorney is admitted and in good standing, confirmed with the issuing bar.
Years in practice, practice areas, and the kind of work the attorney takes on.
The share of past engagements that met or exceeded expectations, with those engagements visible on the profile.
Writing samples and references on file, so you can judge the work before the first engagement.
Protecting your matters
The platform is built to keep confidential client information safe, from the moment you post to the moment the work is delivered.
All traffic is encrypted in transit with TLS and data is encrypted at rest. Sessions are protected and expire automatically.
Internal access to customer data is role-based, logged, and limited to what support actually requires.
Conflict checks run before any work begins, so engagements start on clean footing.
Confidentiality agreements are part of every engagement between a firm and its counsel.
Supervision & ethics
Verification confirms who the attorney is. Supervision is what keeps the engagement ethical. Because the hiring attorney supervises the work and stays attorney of record, it does not amount to the unauthorized practice of law: professional responsibility and the final work product stay with the hiring attorney.
You direct the work and keep professional responsibility for the matter. The final work product is yours.
Because the work stays under your supervision, it does not amount to the unauthorized practice of law by your counsel. That is what keeps engagements ethically sound.
