A new Web site established by a Milwaukee-area attorney will allow lawyers to bid for cases submitted by people, companies or organizations seeking legal services.

Milwaukee-based LawBidding.com was launched Wednesday by Nicholas Cronin, a graduate of Marquette University Law School. The Web site, which is free for users, is designed to make retaining an attorney more efficient and less expensive.

Cronin says the site will help both customers and attorneys. "Attorneys get more business and consumers get a chance to obtain bids for their legal work," he said in a press release.

Postings by individuals or businesses will not contain identifying information because of the confidential nature of legal issues. Lawyers registered with the site will then be able to bid for the work, choosing an hourly, contingent or a flat fee structure. Potential clients can then browse the bids and select an attorney, or not, from the selections.
