Our Process
Partnering With You Step by Step
Phone Consultation
1. Attorney-to-Attorney Case Review

Start with a quick call or secure email about the matter you think should be referred. We’ll review conflicts, the nature of the case, and what outcome you and your client are seeking. This lets us evaluate fit before we ever talk to the client.

2. Clear Role and Fee Agreement

If we agree the case is right for us, we will confirm the referral arrangement in writing, including the approach to representation and fee sharing, all in compliance with ethical fee sharing rules. The client’s written consent is obtained before we take on the matter.

Peace of Mind
3. Client Onboarding and Communication

Once agreed, we contact your client, handle onboarding, and confirm expectations. We keep your client and you informed, providing updates at key milestones so you stay in the loop without handling the day-to-day work.

4. Matter Resolution and Referral Fee

We pursue your client’s case with the same care we would our own, whether through negotiation or litigation. When the matter concludes, we distribute the agreed fee share transparently and in line with ethics rules, with documentation you can retain for your records.
