Lawyer Referrals and Co-Counsel Agreements

At May Jung Law Personal Injury Lawyers, we value collaboration with other legal professionals. We are open to fee-sharing arrangements in compliance with state and jurisdictional rules for personal injury, workers' compensation, civil rights, and mass tort cases. Our firm is dedicated to delivering top-tier legal services, and through referrals and co-counsel agreements, we extend our resources and experience to attorneys who may need assistance or specialized support consistent with California Rule 1.5.1, DC Rule 1.5(e), and Maryland Rule 1.5.

In addition, we are particularly well-equipped to collaborate on mass tort cases, such as hair relaxer litigation and Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) cases. These high-impact cases offer significant potential for joint efforts, benefiting both firms and clients alike.

We also offer our services as local counsel, providing on-the-ground support for attorneys who may require jurisdictional knowledge or presence in the District of Columbia and California. This includes handling local matters while working closely with your firm to ensure seamless legal representation.

Referrals

When a potential client contacts us, one of the first steps in our evaluation process is determining whether we are the best firm to serve their legal needs. In some cases, a client's matter might fall outside of our area of expertise or require resources that would be better provided by another firm. In these situations, we are happy to refer the client to a trusted attorney who can better address their specific legal needs.

Likewise, we welcome referrals from fellow attorneys. Whether you are unable to take on a case due to geographic limitations, resource constraints, or other reasons, May Jung Law Personal Injury Lawyers is here to assist. If you're overloaded with cases or simply need to refer a client outside of your area of practice, we encourage you to reach out to us for potential collaboration.

Co-Counsel Agreements

In some cases, a simple referral may not fully address the client’s needs or your firm’s involvement in the case. A co-counsel agreement can be an effective solution, allowing us to work together while keeping your firm actively involved in the matter.

Here are some common scenarios where a co-counsel arrangement could be beneficial:

• Expanded Resources: By working together, we can offer greater resources for investigations, case management, and expert consultations.
• Specialized Knowledge: Bringing in our experienced legal team can enhance your client's case with specialized knowledge in areas like mass torts, personal injury, or civil rights.
• Shared Client Responsibility: Both firms can stay involved in the case, ensuring clients receive full legal support from all parties.
• Opportunity for Growth: A co-counsel agreement allows you to collaborate on a complex case while knowing your client is supported by a firm with relevant expertise.

Each co-counsel arrangement is unique, tailored to the specific needs of the client and the circumstances of the case. We are happy to discuss the best approach to ensure both the client and our firms benefit from the partnership.
