A consented feed of people who asked to hear from a lawyer.

When a firm can't take a matter, it can — with the person's informed consent — place a listing here for other lawyers to find. The listing says what kind of case and where. Who the person is stays sealed until a verified lawyer who intends to reach out unlocks it.

Why this exists

People looking for a lawyer call the firms they can find — usually the handful at the top of the search results — whether or not those firms are the right fit. When a firm can't take the matter, the caller goes back to the list and works down it, one rejection at a time. Most of those calls are wasted, and the person doing the calling has no better way to find a lawyer who actually wants the case.

ClientFeeds gives the firm a better answer than "try someone else." If the person agrees, the firm posts a listing to the feed. Every lawyer on the feed can see it, and any lawyer who wants the case can contact the person directly. Nobody is matched — the person simply becomes findable, on their own terms, by lawyers who are actually looking.

How it works

  1. Someone asks a firm for help it doesn't want to give. A member of the public contacts a firm on their own initiative. The firm declines — capacity, conflict, practice area.
  2. The firm asks the person's permission. Before anything is shared, the person is told exactly what will be posted, what stays hidden, and the risks — including that a lawyer who unlocks their listing might turn out to be on the other side — and that saying yes means lawyers may contact them directly. Permission can be given out loud, in writing, or electronically.
  3. The listing goes up — without the person's name. A listing shows four things and nothing else: the kind of case, which side the person is on, the county, and who posted it. No name, no contact information, no story about what happened.
  4. A lawyer unlocks — and checks for conflicts. A lawyer who wants the case unlocks the listing and gets the person's name and contact information — nothing more. The unlock is instant and logged. Before any contact, the lawyer checks for conflicts. If there is one: no contact, no use, and the information is deleted.
  5. The person hears from a law office. Every contact comes from a lawyer's office — a person, never software, and never us. Each lawyer decides on their own whether to reach out. The firm that posted the listing is never told who unlocked it, and the person can change their mind at any time, which takes the listing down.

What the feed looks like

It reads like any social feed — because underneath, it is one. The feed runs on a private Nostr relay, so listings arrive in real time, firms post under their own identities, and verified lawyers (or their software) can connect straight to the relay instead of browsing a page. The difference is what's inside a post: four open facts, and a sealed part that only a verified lawyer can unlock.

Illustrative preview with demo data — these are not real listings, people, or firms (except us). Replies, approvals, and follows all happen inside the verified pool, only on listings that identify no one.

The rules we run on

The venue only works if everyone inside it can trust how information moves. These aren't aspirations — they're conditions of participating.

Who gets in

  • Access is limited to lawyers we have verified are licensed and in good standing. The feed is not public.
  • Every reader is authenticated before being served a single listing.
  • The feed lives on a private, access-controlled relay. Listings are never copied to any other relay.
  • We evaluate no matter and recommend no lawyer to anyone.

What every lawyer agrees to

  • Unlock only a listing you actually intend to contact.
  • Run a conflicts check on the name immediately on unlocking, before making any contact.
  • If the check discloses a conflict: make no contact, make no use of the information, and delete it.
  • Use nothing from this venue against any person — the prospective client, an adverse party, anyone.

Breach of any of these terminates access. Interaction between lawyers inside the venue — comments, approvals, messages — stays on listings that identify no one; unlocked names and contact details never go back into the feed.

We have already corresponded with bar ethics counsel about this model, and we invite review by any state ethics board.

Reputation, built in the open

Every listing is placed under the firm's own identity — contributions are attributable, not anonymous. Because the feed runs on Nostr, the social layer comes with it: verified lawyers can follow a firm, react to a listing, and comment, all inside the verified pool and only on listings that identify no one. A firm that consistently places good-faith listings builds a visible track record the ordinary way — by other lawyers seeing it.

Get started

Tell us who you are and how you'd like to participate. We'll reach out to talk it through — nothing posts to the feed, and nobody gets access, from this form alone.

Hold ⌘ (Mac) or Ctrl (Windows) to select more than one.

Submitting this form does not grant access to the feed. Feed access requires verification of your license and a signed participation agreement; posting requires onboarding of your firm. This is not legal advice and does not create any attorney-client relationship.

Want your listing removed?

If a firm listed you here and you've changed your mind, that's all it takes — tell us below and we'll take the listing down and delete your sealed name and contact information. One limit we're honest about: a lawyer who already unlocked your listing may still have that information, like an email already sent.

We remove listings promptly and confirm nothing back to the feed. This form is for people who were listed; lawyers should contact us directly.
