Many of our cases are referred by other attorneys. Through years of experience, we have become familiar with the many reasons, both legal and practical, that compel attorneys to refer medical malpractice cases. These may include the following:

• The referring attorney is not interested in trying cases.
• The complexity or time-consuming nature of medical malpractice case mandates that the originating attorney refers it to a firm capable of handling the volume of expected work.
• Conflicts of interest prevent attorneys from handling matters themselves, thus making case referrals to other counsel necessary.
• An opportunity for co-counsel representation may arise in cases where there are multiple defendants and a conflict facilitates a referral.
• The referring attorney recognizes the need for local counsel with knowledge of judges, plaintiffs' attorneys or other aspects unique to the geographic area in which the case will be heard; and
• For financial, personal or other non-legal reasons, the referring attorney simply does not wish to represent the client.
