Casepost
The idea behind Casepost is to match attorneys with potential clients in their local area. The idea was not new, as Legal Match had actually created the model several years before Casepost. MFA directors have worked as consultants to both companies.
Casepost really has nothing to offer attorneys any longer. The idea is that Casepost will advertise on search engines, have clients come to their site, fill out a legal questionnaire, and then farm out those “cases” to attorney members. MFA has a patent pending legal questionairre system that literally blows Casepost & Legalmatch out of the water by tailoring that intake form to the attorney’s website, local area, and practice areas.
I urge my readers to go through the case posting process of both Casepost and Legalmatch before signing up with either service. Additionally, ask to talk with an attorney that uses the service before signing up. It will be difficult to find a good review of the Casepost service, but Legalmatch has a few “point men” in place to offer good reviews of the service to potential customers.
An MFA powered website is the key to finding new clients. Gimmicky services such as Legalmatch and Casepost will only cause you pain. But don’t take our word for it; ask to speak to an attorney in your area who is happy with the service. You won’t find one.
MFA sites provide the path to free advertising via outstanding seach engine results. You are constantly building your site into a valuable commodity, as opposed to spending your money with Casepost in which you are left with nothing after your term is over.
MFA would like to thank Elise Casey for her comments. Our network is vast indeed!
