Immigration Attorney Comparison Platform

I’m building a web-based marketplace where people who need immigration help can quickly search, filter, and compare licensed attorneys side by side. The core of the product is an attorney directory with rich profile pages—practice areas, languages, location, pricing, success metrics, and any other credentials they want to showcase. Visitors must be able to sort or filter those profiles, select two or more, and view a clean comparison screen before making a decision. Payments will run directly through the site. Once a visitor chooses an attorney, the platform should present a secure checkout (Stripe or a comparable gateway) so the client can pay consultation or retainer fees without leaving the page. Funds will be routed to the attorney after my platform fee is automatically withheld. Only attorney accounts are required for this first release; clients can remain unregistered guests. I still need an admin dashboard so I can approve new attorneys, edit listings, and monitor transactions. Key deliverables: • Responsive web app (desktop & mobile) • Attorney sign-up with profile management and document upload • Search, filter, and side-by-side comparison tool • Integrated payment checkout with automatic fee split • Admin panel for user, listing, and payment oversight Please outline your preferred tech stack, relevant marketplace experience, and an estimated timeline so we can move forward quickly.
