Referring Attorneys

For Referring Attorneys

Your Clients Deserve a Firm You Can Trust. So Do You.

When you refer a client to another firm, your reputation travels with them. The Liles Firm understands that — and we take that responsibility seriously.


For nearly four decades, The Liles Firm has served as a trusted partner for attorneys across the country who need experienced Florida counsel for their clients. Based in Jacksonville, we have built deep roots in Florida’s legal community and established the kind of credibility that referring attorneys can point to with confidence. Our firm holds an AV Preeminent® rating — the highest designation available through the Martindale-Hubbell peer review process — and our attorneys are regularly recognized among the Best Lawyers in America®.

We are frequently referred matters by national law firms and by attorneys from outside Florida who need a skilled, reliable Florida firm to handle their clients’ interests with the same care and professionalism they would provide themselves. That trust is something we have earned over nearly 40 years — and something we work hard to maintain with every engagement.

When you send a client to us, you are not just making a referral. You are extending your own professional relationship. We never lose sight of that.

What We Offer Referring Attorneys

Immediate Attention to Every Referred Client

We understand that first impressions matter. When you refer a client to The Liles Firm, that client is contacted promptly and treated with the same level of care and professionalism you would provide yourself. We do not let referrals sit — we act.

Respect for Your Relationship

Your relationship with your client is yours. We handle what you have asked us to handle, and nothing more. We keep you informed, communicate openly, and make sure your client’s experience with our firm reflects well on you. When the representation concludes, our goal is that your relationship with your client is stronger than when it began — not diminished by the experience.

A Firm With a Proven Track Record

The Liles Firm has worked with referring attorneys from across the United States — from large national firms to solo practitioners — and we regularly receive referrals from attorneys throughout the country who trust us to handle their clients’ Florida matters. Our firm’s nearly 40 years of practice in Florida gives us the institutional knowledge, the judicial relationships, and the local credibility that out-of-state attorneys need from Florida counsel. We know the courts, we know the
local rules and customs, and we know how to navigate the procedural and substantive nuances that can determine how a Florida matter unfolds.

National law firms and firms outside Florida come to us because they need a partner who can step in seamlessly, protect their client’s interests, and keep them fully informed throughout the process. We have built our referral practice on that promise — and on delivering results that bring attorneys back to us time and again.

Recognized Credentials You Can Stand Behind

When you refer a client to The Liles Firm, you are referring them to a firm that can be vouched for. Our AV Preeminent® rating reflects peer recognition of our legal ability and professional ethics at the highest level. Our attorneys’ recognition in Best Lawyers in America® is a reflection of the esteem in which we are held by colleagues throughout the profession. These are not self-assessments — they are the assessments of the legal community itself.

How to Make a Referral

We welcome the opportunity to discuss how we can assist your client and work alongside you. Referral arrangements are handled in compliance with the Florida Rules of Professional Conduct, and we are happy to walk through the structure of any proposed arrangement at the outset.
