FAQs
Is there a fee to join the Justice For Me Network?
There is no charge to join the Justice For Me network. You set your own rates and there are no quotas, minimums or commitments.
What if a client disputes my bill after I’ve been paid?
In the rare instance that a client raises a concern about an invoice, we encourage them to contact you and attempt to resolve the issue. If you decide that a credit is to be issued for any reason, we ask that you simply credit it on the next invoice you send us. If the case is completed and there is no further billing, a credit will be issued to the client and you would be responsible for reimbursing JFM for the amount of the credit, less our service fee. In all cases, the determination of whether to issue a credit or not is between you and your client.
What if my client goes over their credit limit? Do you re-qualify them for more credit?
Simply let us know and the client’s credit file will be reviewed. You will be able to easily keep track of your client’s available credit in the JFM dashboard. They will be judged on their payment history with JFM as well as their original credit summary. It is very important that you alert us to this possibility prior to doing work that could cause them to go over their limit.
How do we know if/when/how much the client qualifies for?
The attorney and the client will receive a welcome email detailing the amount of the credit line as soon as they are approved.
