How does the Fee-share work?

Associates are remunerated on a 70/30 basis:

• 70% of fees collected from clients originated by you;
• 30% on clients originated by the firm and other linklawyers.

While retainers are recommended for new clients, we understand that it takes time to collect fees from existing clients and for this reason, we do extend advances on fees to be collected to assist associates with initial cashflow.

Our platform allows associates to collaborate and freely refer work while retaining ownership of the client and an origination fee of 30%, in perpetuity, on all work done for that client by other associates to which work is referred by the originating associate

Whether you prefer soliciting clients or doing the work, or both, you share in the fee, the collection of which is handled by our collection department and can be remotely tracked by you 24/7 via our app.

Top-performing fee-share associates will if desired, have an option of equity and directorship in the firm or support for starting-up their own firm via linklawyer.

Preference on existing and new client referrals and own firm start-ups will be provided on a “first in, first option” basis i.e.  The sooner you join the greater the prospects.
