Your Credentials Matter. So Does Your Reputation.

Clients need confidence in the professionals they choose. CallLawya's verification process is designed to check the identity and professional credentials of lawyers before their profiles can accept bookings.

A verified profile helps clients make informed decisions. It does not guarantee a particular legal outcome or replace a client's own assessment of a lawyer's suitability.

HOW VERIFICATION WORKS

  1. 1

    Submit Your Details

    Provide your Supreme Court of Nigeria enrolment number and the professional information required during registration.

  2. 2

    Complete the Verification Process

    Our team reviews the submitted details and conducts the applicable identity and professional checks.

  3. 3

    Publish Your Profile

    Once approved, your profile can be published so potential clients can discover your expertise and explore your consultation services.

Flexibility and control

You Set the Terms of Your Consultations.

Your professional time and expertise have value. CallLawya gives you control over your consultation fees and availability while providing tools to manage bookings.

Set Your Consultation Fees

Choose your consultation prices and, where supported, offer different durations or consultation formats. Clients can review the applicable fees before confirming a booking.

Choose When You Are Available

Set your working hours, publish available appointment slots, and block out dates when you cannot accept consultations.

Keep Your Calendar Organised

Track upcoming bookings and add appointments to your preferred calendar through supported calendar integrations.

Manage Your Professional Profile
