Are you looking into profile removal requests on our website?

We appreciate the outpouring of positive feedback from the legal community. Many law firms love the profiles. The public also seems to be excited about there being a better way to leave reviews for lawyers.

If you do not have the time to read this full article, please note that you can now claim and edit your own profile. Go to our main page and search for your name. Then go to your profile and click “Claim your profile”

You can then claim your profile for free, and make any changes that you want. With over one million lawyers on our website, we cannot make changes for the lawyers. Only the lawyers can update their information and pictures.

All information on your profile already exists on the internet. Just like with Google, Chat GPT, and Bing, information is indexed and compiled from many different websites.

Understanding the Basics of Profile Removal Requests

If you want to get your information off the internet, please first contact your Law Society.

Our algorithm tries to find each lawyer’s email address so that when someone fills out the contact form on the lawyer’s profile, the email goes directly to the lawyer. When you claim your profile, please make sure your email address is correct.

It only takes a few minutes to claim your profile. Our team is unable to take down profiles, as the algorithm would just re-index the information from the internet and put it back up.

Why we created an online legal marketplace

Law firms can use the profiles to generate new clients, manage their online public relations, and build trust with the community.

Instead of being afraid of getting a bad review, send your Clearway profile to 5 past clients who had a good experience with your firm. Ask them to leave reviews.

When potential clients, judges, government officials, managing partners etc do a Google search for your name, they will see your positive reviews.

Building a profile for over one million lawyers has been hard, and the positive feedback keeps us going.

Detailed Guide to Submitting a Profile Removal Request

While the Law Society is not our regulator, we sent our business model to them, and they had no issues. We are helping solve the access to justice problem by bridging the trust gap between the public and lawyers.

The public wants more information about lawyers than just a website bio. By providing more information on your profile, you are more likely to get hired.

Removing Profiles

Just like the open court principle, we are pushing for transparency in the legal industry. This is the same principle that some people hate with CanLII.

After their trial, their personal matters go online for all to see. You might not agree with it, but it’s the way things are in democratic systems.

Of course, the person who wins at trial doesn’t mind. The person who loses wants their information off the internet.

The general long-term goal is to enable the public to make better choices about the lawyers and law firms they hire.

Verified lawyer profiles

Clearway offers verified lawyer profiles, verified reviews, and a central place to see all public information about the lawyer.

Any information about Law Society discipline actions will also show on the profiles.

There is also the problem of clients leaving fake unverified reviews on, Google, Lawyer Ratingz and Avvo. We are working on a way to make sure that all client reviews are verified as accurate. Law firms will love it.

You do not have to be concerned with a data breach or hacking. All information was taken from the internet. We did not purchase or collect any information about you from non-internet sources.

If the information is on your profile, it was already on the internet.

The use of any information we collect is simply to create profiles. We do not sell information.

Profile Removal Requests Valid Reasons

The purpose of the profiles is to be accurate. It’s important that the profiles are up to date. We will not remove profiles unless they violate one of the reasons below. Again, soon you will be able to edit your own profiles.

-We may take down reviews that violate our policies.

-The lawyer’s profile should be an actual lawyer. If you have a profile, and you are not a lawyer, please let us know.

We may create profiles for paralegals and law students in the future. It will be clear that they are not attorneys.

There are many companies in the United States that have created profiles for attorneys. A few of those companies also operate in Canada. We won’t name them as they are our competitors, but there are many.
