These requests will be by mail, , telephone or through the website. NO Walk-In referrals are accepted. SECTION 3. The Service shall be operated, in accordance with these Rules and the Minimum Standards for a Lawyer Referral Service in California, which Minimum Standards and any amendments thereto as may be adopted from time to time by the Board of Governors of the State Bar of California, are incorporated by reference herein As though fully set forth at length. Any conflict between the body of these Rules and the Minimum Standards as adopted by the State Bar shall be resolved by reference to the Minimum Standards. The Service shall be administered by the Committee of the Lawyer Referral Service of the Sacramento County Bar Association. ARTICLE THREE ADMINISTRATION SECTION 1. Any member in good standing of the State Bar of California engaged in active practice of the law with offices in Sacramento County may apply for registration with the Service. If the attorney is a member of the SCBA, dues will be set periodically by the LRS Committee; otherwise no dues for membership are required. If an attorney is not a member of the SCBA, a fee of $185 shall be charged. Dues are based on a calendar year, no proration. SECTION 2. Attorneys on the LRS panel serve with the knowledge that they may receive a fee generating case. The referral fee covers the cost of operation. In this respect it is extremely important that these procedures be followed: a. Panel attorney must be willing to give up one half hour of their time to consult with the client at no cost beyond the referral fees 1
2 b. It must be made perfectly clear to the client [by the attorney] when the attorney begins to charge for legal services. Do not fail to do so. c. The LRS places no restriction on the fee charged by a panel attorney if they get a fee generating case from the referral, as long as they DO NOT charge more than they would for a non-lrs client. d. Panel attorneys shall not refer the client to a friend or another attorney if they do not want the case. The referral MUST come back to the LRS e. If you do refer a case [without LRS consent] you will be held responsible for the total attorney fees even if you do not receive any fee yours f. The senior attorney in a firm [who belongs to the LRS] SHALL NOT direct the referral to a junior member or a paralegal in the firm for consultation or to handle the case g. Violation of D, E., F can lead to removal from the service h. When the consultation with the client has been completed, the attorney must complete the appropriate portion of the referral form and return it with ten working days of the consultation. At that time the attorney should fill out the percentage fee information, sign the form. Percentages of referral types are as follows: 10% for Workers Compensation, Social Security and Landlord/Tenant cases and 15% for all other cases. A fee is not considered collected until it has been paid to the attorney s business account or transferred from the attorney s trust account. Retainers are not collected fees until earned i. Quarterly billings are sent at the end of each quarter for the percentage updates. j. The attorney shall return quarterly billing forms to the LRS office, properly completed and updated with the percentage of fees collected to date no later than 20 working days from invoice date k. The attorney shall be billed for each case on a quarterly basis until that cases closes and all fees have been paid to the LRS. l. Failure to comply with the procedures or failure to report fee information can lead to removal from the service m. If an attorney cannot [or will not] assist a referral, the referral shall be sent back to the LRS. The LRS will, at no further fee to the client, give the client a second referral. If the second referral cannot help, the client will receive a third appointment at no charge. All clients are entitled to only 3 referrals pertaining to the same legal problem. n. A third referral can/will be sent to an LRS committee member for special handling o. Attorneys are categorized by area of legal experience or interest. The attorney must make note of the types of cases they are willing to handle or the types of cases they will specifically handle. Once a year this portion of the contract will be sent to the attorney for review and revision p. Legal area determinations shall be made by completing the forms, or by selecting Experience Panels. These choices may be modified upon written notice to the LRS if said changes need to be made before the end of the year 2
3 q. The LRS established Experience Panels in several areas. LRS attorneys may apply to join as many panels as their qualifications permit. When joining LRS, the attorney will belong to the general panel, and will select from the Experience Panels for which they qualify. Only those that qualify will receive referrals. r. All panel attorneys are required to have malpractice insurance coverage of a minimum of $100,000 for each occurrence and $300,000 aggregate per year. Failure to keep this coverage current shall be cause for removal form the panel. SECTION 3.
