Low pay no customer service

It is good to know which attorneys take cases in your county but don’t want to be bothered to appear. Once you’re on the email list there is no way to get off it without coming back to the app. Customer service is nonexistent. The help email even bounces back. I feel bad for clients of attorneys who use this service.

Lifesaver

I got delayed on the road and got someone to call my case in 10 seconds !

Convenient and Easy

Our office has been using this app and it has really helped out with my hectic schedule during trial. Fantastic!

Okay looking app, but nothin happens

Customer service is non responsive to inquiries. I downloaded the app to pick up appearance work, but haven’t seen a single assignment come through. It seems like they have no customers using it. You can have the greatest app in the world, but you need attorneys to request help with appearances and you need attorneys to cover them. It seems like this app has no customers using it.

Great app

This app is so convenient and easy to use. I got paid very quickly. I would recommend this app for any attorney who has a multi county practice and is in need of coverage.
