How RESTORE²ᴺᴰ Works

Build the File First. Choose the Attorney After.

RESTORE²ᴺᴰ separates factual case preparation from attorney selection so applicants can organize one Restoration Dossier™, protect their identity during bidding and compare independent legal representation offers.

The Complete Process

From First Intake to Attorney Handoff.

The process keeps the applicant's private identity separate from the marketplace until the applicant selects an attorney and authorizes the handoff.

1
Create Your Case

Open Your RESTORE²ᴺᴰ Account.

Create your applicant account and case record. Your Restoration Dossier becomes the central place for the factual information and documents used throughout the preparation process.

2
Build the Dossier

Organize the History Before Attorney Review.

Work through case history, sentence completion, residences, employment, references, records and supporting evidence in a structured format instead of repeatedly rebuilding the same history for different attorneys.

3
Prepare for Marketplace Review

Separate the Private Case from the Bid File.

The private applicant record is not simply handed to participating attorneys. RESTORE²ᴺᴰ prepares a separate marketplace presentation containing the non-identifying facts needed for attorney evaluation.

4
Identity Firewall

Remove the Information That Can Identify You.

Real name, direct phone and email, street address, exact date of birth and other identifying details remain behind the RESTORE²ᴺᴰ Identity Firewall. Searchable case identifiers and document details are also controlled when they could reveal the applicant.

5
Attorney Review

Participating Attorneys Review the Controlled Opportunity.

Participating attorneys review the same controlled case presentation and independently decide whether the matter fits their practice and whether they want to submit an offer.

6
Independent Offers

Attorneys Set Their Own Scope and Fee.

Each attorney controls the attorney's own proposed services, legal fee, additional costs and offer terms. RESTORE²ᴺᴰ does not set the attorney's legal fee and does not require attorneys to match one another.

7
Applicant Choice

Compare the Offers and Choose for Yourself.

Review the attorneys, proposed services and fees. You decide which attorney, if any, you want to retain. The lowest price does not have to be the winning offer.

8
Authorized Handoff

Identity Is Released After Selection.

Once an attorney is selected and the handoff is authorized, RESTORE²ᴺᴰ releases the appropriate identity and contact information so the applicant and attorney can communicate directly and complete the attorney-client engagement process.

Why the Separation Matters

The Bid File Is Not the Applicant File.

The marketplace uses a controlled representation of the opportunity rather than exposing the applicant's raw private record. This protects applicant privacy, supports equal presentation to participating attorneys and reduces the opportunity for pre-selection direct contact.

See the Identity Firewall

Before Selection

  • Anonymous RESTORE²ᴺᴰ case reference
  • Controlled non-identifying facts
  • No direct applicant contact information
  • Independent attorney offers through the platform

After Selection

  • Authorized identity release
  • Direct attorney/applicant contact
  • Attorney's own engagement process
  • Legal advice and representation by retained counsel
✓

You Control Marketplace Entry.

Your organized case is not automatically handed to attorneys simply because you created a RESTORE²ᴺᴰ account.

✓

You Control Attorney Selection.

An offer is an option, not an obligation. You choose whether any participating attorney is right for you.

✓

Attorneys Remain Independent.

Each participating attorney decides what services to offer and what fee to charge, and the attorney is responsible for the legal work after engagement.
