Our Screening Process

An overview of the onboarding call and how we vet our lawyers

Scheduling an onboarding call

After you finish up your application, you'll get an email with a link to book a chat with our team. Go ahead and set it up whenever works for you. In this call, we'll go over how HeyCounsel works, answer any questions you might have, and get to know more about your practice while talking about your profile. It'll be a fun and informative chat!

How references work on HeyCounsel

During the application process, we ask for two professional references — one from a client or employer you’ve recently served, and one from an attorney you’ve recently worked with. Each reference will receive a brief, confidential email questionnaire about their experiences working with you.

We appreciate that asking for professional references can be a delicate matter. As a result, we take the following precautions

• We don't ask anyone for sensitive or confidential details. We only want to know their professional opinion of your work as an attorney.

• We do not use references' contact information for any other purpose!

• No specific information provided by your references is disclosed to prospective clients.
