Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Verified publisher badges: what they mean and how to get one

GitLaw profiles can carry a verified publisher badge. The badge is a trust signal: it tells people browsing the library that the templates and content from this profile come from a known, authentic publisher rather than an anonymous account.

What the badge signals

The verified publisher badge appears on a user's profile and helps readers judge the source of the templates they're considering.

  • Authenticity - the profile is who it claims to be.
  • Trust - the publisher's content carries an extra credibility signal when you browse or search the template library.
  • Source transparency - it helps you distinguish established publishers from general community contributions.

It's worth knowing that a badge is a signal about the source, not a guarantee that any individual template fits your specific matter. As with all templates on GitLaw, review the output before you sign anything. For more on how template quality and verification work, see Who writes GitLaw's templates and can I trust them?.

Who it's for

The badge is aimed at publishers who share templates publicly and want their work to be recognised as coming from a trusted source - for example law firms, in-house teams, and recognised legal-content authors who contribute to the public library.

How to get verified

Verification is applied by GitLaw rather than granted automatically. If you publish templates and would like your profile to be recognised as a verified publisher, get in touch with GitLaw support to request verification. The team can confirm what's required and whether your profile qualifies.
