When Should You Refer a Case To Us

  • A case is beyond your experience level
  • The cost of retaining experts or other trial preparation exceeds your client's or your means
  • You want to partner on a case to learn how to represent clients in an unfamiliar area of law or liability
  • You recognize professional malpractice, but don't want to sue the lawyer or doctor because he or she is a friend or acquaintance
  • You just don't want to handle this type of case

Sharing Attorney Fees

The Rules of Professional Conduct of both Illinois and Missouri allow us to share fees with referring attorneys when they provide assistance in the case or are willing to assume joint liability for the case, even if they provide no legal services. Each case is different - we need to discuss the case and your degree of involvement before we could determine the share percentage to you as the referring attorney. Call us. We'd be happy to discuss the issue.
