# Organizations

The Organizations page lets you view law firms and other organizations registered on the platform.

{% hint style="info" %}
This page is currently read-only. You can view organization details and membership, but management actions (editing, disabling, merging) are coming in a future release.
{% endhint %}

## What You Can See

* **Organization name** and type (Law Firm, Government Agency, etc.)
* **Member count** -- number of users associated with the organization
* **Org Admin** -- the user who created and manages the organization
* **Created date**

## How Organizations Are Created

Organizations are created by filers during onboarding, not from the Admin Panel. When a user selects the **Org Admin** role during registration, they create an organization and become its administrator. Other users can join an existing organization via an invite link sent by the Org Admin.

## Org Admin Self-Service

Organization administrators manage their own settings from the **Filer Portal > Settings** page, including:

* Organization profile (name, address, contact info)
* Team member invites and removal
* Shared billing card for filing fees
* Notification preferences

For details on what Org Admins can configure, see the [Filer Settings](/filer-guide/settings.md) page.
