Injury lawyer tells Michigan Lawyers Weekly that discouraging lawyer referrals is damaging to the public
Michigan Auto Law was quoted in a Michigan Lawyers Weekly story on proposed changes to court rules on attorney referral fees.
Our attorney told Lawyers Weekly that discouraging lawyer referrals with the change to the court rules “… encourages attorneys to keep cases better served in other hands,” and that it would be damaging to car accident victims.
He also said the amendment would hurt small firms and solo practitioners who rely on work from larger firms with budgets that are large enough to advertise.
