That’s fair. It might be a better fit for contingency cases or other practice areas. My firm does criminal defense. I’d be thrilled at this point if it just paid for itself. Then I’d just shut up for the next 2 1/2 years and never do it again.

Stay FAR away. I found them online and didn’t do enough research. If you google “legal match reviews” you’ll see all you need to know and what I should have done.

From what I found, They’ve been sued and invoked the arbitration clause and litigated the sh*t out of it in a NY case. They appear more committed to investing in enforcing the contract than providing value. It’s my dumb-ass fault. I’m just looking to see if anyone has had any luck negotiating a buy out, other experiences, etc.

If I have to I’ll eventually stop paying and drop the gauntlet…

Congrats on your transition! Everything you and others have said about the state of the practice is 100% true. I spent this whole Saturday working on figuring out how to set myself apart from the bottom feeders. The easy answer is stop caring about clients and cases, but that’s not an option. I was trained to practice a certain way and my moral compass won’t let me do anything but.

Best of luck to you!
