For Attorneys — Kavanagh Injury Law

Option 1

Refer a Case. Earn 50% of Our Fee.

You have a PI case you can't handle, conflict, capacity, or you're not licensed in that state. Send it to us. We handle everything at our flat 20% fee. You receive 50% within 14 days of collection.

How It Works

Submit the referral form below with client and case information.

You receive a co-counsel agreement instantly by email. We reach out to your client within 1 business day.

We handle the case start to finish at 20%. Case resolves. You get a check for 50% of our net attorney fee within 14 days of collection.

Example

$100,000 settlement → Our fee: $20,000 → You receive: $10,000

Client keeps $80,000, same as if they came to us directly.

All referral arrangements comply with RPC 1.5(e) (or applicable state equivalent). Client is informed and consents in writing. Both attorneys assume joint responsibility per a signed co-counsel agreement.

Brief Case Description *

* I understand that by accepting a referral fee, I assume joint responsibility for this client under applicable Rules of Professional Conduct (RPC 1.5(e) or state equivalent). I will remain reachable for the duration of the representation. * I understand that if this matter requires co-counsel in another state, a third attorney will also share responsibility. The client will be informed in writing of all attorneys involved and all fee divisions before any agreement is signed.

Option 2

Join the Co-Counsel Network We Are Building.

Kavanagh Injury Law is licensed in Indiana. Our app, website, and 24/7 phone line also bring in injury inquiries from outside Indiana, and we cannot take those without a lawyer licensed in that state. The network is early. We are selecting our first co-counsel now, so volume in any given state is not yet established. That is the honest version, and it is why we are talking to you.

This is not a referral arrangement where you send us cases. This is the reverse: we send you cases, you handle the legal work in your state, and we split the fee 50/50.

Attorney FAQ

How is the co-counsel network different from referring a case to you? +

Referral: you have a specific case and send it to us. We handle it; you earn 50% of our fee. Network: we generate leads in your state and send them to you. You handle the state-specific work; we manage the client relationship and pay you 50% of the fee. The fee structure is identical, the direction of the case flow is different.

What does KIL actually do after the case is referred to local counsel? +

KIL remains the client's primary point of contact throughout. We conduct the initial intake and case evaluation, manage all client communications through our portal, review demand packages, consult on settlement strategy before any offer is recommended to the client, and review material work product. Every significant task is documented. We assume genuine joint responsibility, not nominal.

Can I decline cases you send me? +

Yes. Every case is proposed under a Matter Addendum before any commitment. You review the matter and either accept or decline. You are never obligated to accept a case with conflicts, capacity problems, or other legitimate concerns. If you decline, we find alternate local counsel.

How and when is the fee paid? +

KIL holds all client funds. When the case resolves and the attorney fee is collected, we send your share (50% of the net attorney fee) within 14 business days by check or ACH. This is guaranteed in writing from day one in the Master Agreement and each Matter Addendum.

What if the case goes to litigation or trial? +

The fee stays at 20%. It does not increase at any stage. You are still paid 50% of that fee regardless of how long the case takes. If a case is heading to trial and you need to withdraw, we work together to transition the matter properly with client consent and in compliance with applicable withdrawal rules.

How long does the vetting process take? +

Typically 2-3 weeks from application submission. Phase 1 (bar check) takes 2 business days. The call is usually schedulable within a week. Document verification and reference checks take another week. We move quickly for applicants who are responsive and have materials ready.
