Partnership Advantages

Why Attorneys Choose This Partnership

A professionally vetted, ethically compliant revenue stream that strengthens client relationships while eliminating conflict-of-interest exposure.

Zero Conflict of Interest

Under most state bar regulations, attorneys cannot simultaneously represent lenders and pursue surplus claims. We assume the recovery role entirely, insulating you from ethical liability while preserving the client benefit.

Substantial Referral Compensation

Receive 10% of gross recovered surplus funds. With recoveries ranging from $8,000 to $85,000, your referral fee per matter typically yields $800-$8,500 with zero billable hour investment.

Turnkey Administrative Process

We conduct all title research, statutory compliance verification, claim preparation, and state agency liaison. Your sole obligation: provide former client contact information and property details.

Client Relationship Enhancement

Position yourself as a trusted advocate who continues to deliver value post-representation. Former clients appreciate attorneys who facilitate recovery opportunities they otherwise would never discover.

Minimal Time Commitment

Average 10-15 minutes per referral submission. No ongoing case management, no court appearances, no discovery obligations. Simply submit client details and await distribution confirmation.

Bar Ethics Compliance

Referral fees for non-legal services are permissible under Model Rule 7.2(b)(4) and corresponding state provisions. We provide complete documentation for your compliance records and ethics opinion reference.

Simple Process

Partnership Protocol

Three steps from referral to revenue. We handle everything in between.

Referral Submission

Upon identifying a former client with foreclosure history, you submit basic identifying information via our secure attorney portal: client name, foreclosed property address, last known contact details, and approximate foreclosure date. No legal work product or privileged information required.

10-15 minutes

Due Diligence & Client Engagement

Our recovery specialists conduct comprehensive title research and surplus verification within 5 business days. Upon confirming surplus eligibility, we contact the former homeowner directly, execute a contingency fee agreement (copy provided to you), and commence the statutory claim process.

5 business days verification

Recovery & Distribution

We advance all filing fees, research costs, and administrative expenses. Upon successful fund recovery from the state holding entity (typically 8-16 weeks), client proceeds are distributed per our contingency agreement. Your 10% referral fee is remitted within 10 business days via wire transfer or check, accompanied by detailed accounting documentation.

8-16 weeks to recovery

Testimonials

What Our Attorney Partners Say

I initially questioned the ethical propriety and practical viability of this arrangement. After consulting my firm's ethics counsel and observing the first two recoveries -- totaling $97,000 for former clients who would have otherwise forfeited those funds -- I became convinced this is a legitimate and valuable service. My referral fees exceeded $9,700 for approximately 45 minutes of administrative effort.

John R. Martinez, Esq.

Martinez & Associates | Phoenix, Arizona

Three of my former bankruptcy clients had surplus funds sitting with the state that none of us knew about. The recovery team identified the funds, handled everything, and my clients received checks within 12 weeks. The referral income is a bonus, but the real value is keeping my former clients happy and getting word-of-mouth referrals back.

Sarah R. Collins, Esq.

Collins Bankruptcy Law | Houston, Texas

As a real estate attorney, I was skeptical at first. But after the free trial showed real results -- $34,000 recovered for a former client -- I signed the partnership agreement immediately. I have submitted seven referrals so far and four have confirmed surplus funds. This is the easiest revenue stream I have ever added to my practice.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the partnership program.

EthicsIs this arrangement compliant with attorney ethics rules?

Yes. Model Rule 7.2(b)(4) and corresponding state provisions permit referral fees for non-legal services where disclosure is made. We are not a law firm and provide no legal advice -- we perform administrative surplus fund recovery services. You refer potential clients for a business service, not legal representation, eliminating conflict-of-interest concerns. We recommend consulting your jurisdiction's ethics counsel for confirmation, and we provide template opinion request language.

RiskWhat is my financial risk or upfront obligation?

Zero. You incur no fees, costs, or expenses. We advance all filing fees, title research charges, and administrative costs. Your referral fee is contingent upon successful recovery and is deducted from our contingency fee -- not from client proceeds. If a referred matter yields no recovery, you owe nothing.

TimelineHow long does the typical recovery take?

Most recoveries are completed within 8-16 weeks from client agreement execution, though timelines vary by state agency processing capacity and claim complexity. You receive status updates at key milestones (verification, filing, approval, distribution) via email and through our attorney partner portal.

ProcessWhat information do I need to provide for a referral?

Minimal details: (1) Former client's full legal name, (2) Foreclosed property address, (3) Last known contact information (phone/email/current address), (4) Approximate foreclosure date (if known), (5) State. Court case numbers or additional documentation are helpful but not required -- we can locate those records independently.

RelationshipDo I need to maintain an attorney-client relationship?

No. Most referrals involve former clients whose matters have concluded. You are simply facilitating an introduction to a financial recovery service. The individual engages us directly under a separate contingency agreement. You receive referral compensation for the introduction, not for legal services rendered.

ExclusivityWhat if multiple attorneys refer the same individual?

Referral fees are awarded on a first-submission basis, timestamped in our system. We maintain strict chronological records and will notify you within 48 hours if a referred client is already in our pipeline. Geographic and practice area exclusivity arrangements are available for high-volume referral partners.
