A referral should not feel uncertain after it leaves your office. Murray Legal Group follows a clear process designed to protect the client relationship, define expectations early, and keep counsel informed as the case develops.
We begin with a direct review of the case facts, injury, parties involved, deadlines, and any immediate concerns. This helps determine whether the matter is a fit for referral, co-counsel, or further review.
Our team reviews the available information, identifies key legal issues, and evaluates the matter from a litigation and damages standpoint.
Referral fees, co-counsel roles, and responsibilities are discussed clearly and documented in writing before the relationship moves forward.
Once the referral path is confirmed, we contact the client with professionalism, care, and respect for the trust they already placed in you.
The case is investigated, prepared, negotiated, and, when necessary, litigated with the discipline expected of a trial-ready firm.
Referral relationships work best when expectations are clear from the beginning. Murray Legal Group discusses fee arrangements directly, documents them properly, and makes sure referring counsel understands how the relationship will be handled.
For appropriate matters, we offer referral fee arrangements consistent with applicable professional rules and the specific facts of the case.
When a matter calls for shared responsibility, trial support, or a more active role from referring counsel, we can structure a co-counsel arrangement that reflects each firm’s involvement.
Every arrangement is confirmed in writing so there is clarity around roles, communication, fee handling, and client expectations.
Referring counsel should not have to chase updates. Murray Legal Group keeps attorneys informed throughout the life of the case, from client intake and investigation through major negotiations, litigation decisions, mediation, trial strategy, and resolution.
Our communication is focused, useful, and tied to meaningful case movement. We share key developments, case status, settlement posture, major litigation activity, client concerns when appropriate, and any issue that may affect the referral relationship.
