Trust · verification
Badge meaning belongs in plain view.
The verification policy explains what directory profile labels mean, the kinds of evidence the platform may use, their limits, and how corrections or removal requests work.
Read the relevant record, then take the next action with the boundary in view.
Directory and information platformPublic disclosure
A badge is a directory-status statement, not a quality rating, outcome promise or confirmation that a lawyer is suitable or available for a particular matter.
Listed
A profile has been published from available information and may be incomplete. This is not a quality, availability or suitability statement.
Claimed
A person associated with the profile has asserted control, such as through a confirmed account or email pathway.
Verified
The platform has checked route-appropriate credentials under its current process. Verification is not an endorsement, ranking or conflict check.
Featured / preferred
A commercial visibility label, if used, must be disclosed and is never a substitute for verification or an editorial quality claim.
