For attorneys

Create your account, complete your profile, and post your first case for expert opinions.

What you'll do

By the end of this page, you'll have a verified attorney account, a complete profile, and your first case posted for matched physicians to review.

An email address you check — you'll verify it during sign-up.
Your bar credentials: the U.S. state(s) where you're licensed and the practice areas you cover.
Your firm size (solo, small, mid, or large).
For firm members: the invitation email from your firm administrator.

If you joined a firm

Your firm admin sent you an invitation. Onboarding skips the billing step — your firm's plan covers your cases. See Billing and plans for details.

Sign up with your work email at the Kalivar login page and confirm the verification email.
On the role gate, choose Attorney. This sets your archetype and routes you into the solo-attorney path.
Complete the credentials step: select the state(s) where you're admitted to the bar, the practice areas you cover, and your firm size. Specialties drive how physicians match to your cases — pick the ones you actually litigate.
Complete the About-you step: confirm your display name and add the address and phone number we use for billing receipts and case correspondence. You'll land on your dashboard, where you can review matched physicians, monitor opinion progress, and create new cases.
Create your first case. Open the Cases area and start a new case — provide a clear summary, the relevant medical specialty, and any documents reviewers will need. See Creating cases for the full walkthrough.
Wait for matched physicians to accept and write opinions. You'll get a notification each time an opinion is submitted.
Review opinions in your inbox, accept the ones that meet your needs, and proceed to introductions when you want to engage a physician directly. See Reviewing opinions.

The more specific your case specialty, the stronger the physician match — vague specialties produce weaker opinions.
Cases without a clear, factual summary tend to get fewer opinions. Lead with the medical question, not the legal theory.
You can post multiple cases in parallel; physicians are matched independently per case.
