What does Lawyer to Lawyer do? Next »

Lawyer to Lawyer provides a marketplace where law professionals - solicitors, trade mark attorneys, patent attorneys, paralegal firms, and so on - can sell, refer, buy and exchange legal work to and with other law professionals.

All the law professionals we work with are interviewed and vetted by us, and they must meet our Minimum Standards - before being registered, and before any work is sold, referred, bought or exchanged.

We also vet and qualify each matter/case being sold, referred or exchanged – to ensure it is genuine, and of interest to our panel of buyers.

The law professionals we introduce are free to agree the details of the sale or referral, whether this involves a referral fee, fee sharing, reciprocal referrals, or other criteria. Alternatively, if you wish, we can assist in discussing and agreeing these details.
