Attorney Referrals
Many clients for whom we provide legal services have been referred to us by other attorneys, both within Maine, and from other states. At Elias Law Offices, we always honor our split-fee agreement with the referring attorneys, and welcome any request that the referring attorneys may have to participate in the proceedings, or to simply be advised as to the status of the case, at any time from the date of the referral, until the matter is finally resolved.
And of course, we comply with all applicable provisions of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct, particularly as to the requirement of full disclosure of the fee-splitting agreement, by incorporating the client’s written consent to the arrangement as a provision in our fee agreements.
Our goal at Elias Law Offices is to achieve the best possible results for our mutual client, and for the client to feel confident that the referring attorney has made every effort to take care of the legal needs of the client.
Attorneys who have referred cases to us attest to our reputation for excellence and integrity, and our ability to achieve the most favorable results.
