REFERRING ATTORNEYS

By administrator

Burke, Harvey & Frankowski, LLC welcomes the opportunity to evaluate referral cases and co-counsel relationships with attorneys and law firms.  We have referral relationships with lawyers across Alabama, the Southeast and the United States.  Our lawyers are licensed in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, New York, Tennessee, Texas and Virgina.  Our lawyers are regularly admitted on motion in other states.

We appreciate the confidence other lawyers have shown in our professional ability and competence and we take the time to build professional and personal relationships with each of our referring attorneys.

Our lawyers have flexibility in addressing the needs of our referring attorneys and their clients.  Our participation in referral cases is based on our referring attorneys’ clients’ needs and wants.  Our law firm offers various levels of assistance throughout the litigation process.  For example, our firm assists our referring attorneys with the following: initial case investigation; new client intake screening; local counsel; document review; trial preparation, including drafting, discovery, and motion practice; trial and appeals.

Of course, we also provide ”turn-key” referral services to referring attorneys who do not desire to remain involved in the case and simply want to refer their client to us.  After executing a fee sharing agreement, our firm handles all aspects of the client’s case.

Our referring attorneys often send us cases involving: credit reporting issues; identity theft; nursing home abuse or neglect; securities fraud; motor vehicle accidents; insurance claim denials (including ERISA and Long-Term Disability); workers’ compensation cases involving death or permanent total injury due to a third-party or co-employee (i.e., dangerous tools, premises liability or failure to use a safety device); medical malpractice; complex federal consumer protection statutes (e.g., Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Labor Standards Act); and wrongful death.

In addition to individual cases, Burke, Harvey & Frankowski, LLC receives class action referrals from other attorneys.  Our firm has the experience and resources to assist our referring attorneys and their clients throughout the class action litigation process.

Our attorneys have experience in alternative dispute resolution and have obtained significant settlements without the expense and delay that often goes with trial.  We are comfortable and confident in the courtroom – federal and state court.  We have prosecuted cases to juries and obtained substantial jury verdicts in favor of our clients.

Please feel free to contact attorney Micah Adkins at 205-747-1907 to find out how we can partner with you.
