Terms & Conditions

The program

Attorney Alfonso León ("the firm," "we," "us") pays $750 to a person ("you") who refers a new client to the firm, provided that the referral results in a signed representation agreement and the case meets the criteria set forth in these terms.

This program is a token of appreciation for an introduction. It does not make you an employee, agent, partner, contractor, or representative of the firm, and it does not authorize you to act or speak on the firm's behalf.

Who Can Participate

You may participate if you are at least 18 years old and legally eligible to receive payment in the United States.

The following are not eligible to receive a referral fee:

• Employees, owners, and contractors of the firm, and their immediate family members
• Anyone whose profession or licensing rules prohibit receiving payment for legal referrals — including attorneys, medical providers, chiropractors, and insurance adjusters
• Anyone who obtained the referral's information while employed at a hospital, clinic, auto body shop, towing company, police agency, or similar business, where sharing it would violate a duty of confidentiality or that employer's policy
• Anyone acting as a paid solicitor, "runner," or "capper," or who is compensated by a third party to refer accident victims to law firms

The firm may refuse to pay a referral fee to anyone it reasonably believes falls into these categories.

What Counts as a Qualifying Referral

A referral qualifies when all of the following conditions are met:

• The person you referred is a new contact for the firm—not an existing or former client, and not someone who was already in contact with the firm at the time of your referral
• You are identified as the referral source at or before the person's first substantive contact with the firm, either through the referral form on our website or when the person mentions your name during a phone call
• The firm takes the case, and the client signs a representation agreement with the firm
• This is a personal injury case that the firm handles in Arizona

The firm decides which cases to accept, at its sole discretion, and is not required to explain its decision to decline a case. Not every referral will qualify. We will let you know either way.

If two or more people refer the same person, the firm pays a single fee to whoever the client identifies as the source of the referral. If the client does not identify anyone, no fee is payable.

The referral fee

• The fee is $750 per qualifying case, in U.S. dollars.
• There is no limit on the number of referrals you may make, and there is no waiting period between them.
• The firm pays the fee out of its own funds. It is never taken from the client's recovery, and it never increases the amount the client pays.
• The fee is not a share of any attorney's fee, settlement, or judgment, and is not tied to the value or outcome of the case.

Payment and Taxes

Payment is issued within 30 days of the date the person you referred signs a representation agreement with the firm—not when the case is resolved.

• Payment is made by [CHECK / OTHER METHOD] and sent to the address you provide.
• Before your first payment, you must provide your legal name, current mailing address, and a completed [W-9 / TAX FORM]. We cannot issue payment without it.
• Referral fees are taxable income. The firm will issue a [FORM 1099-NEC] where required by law. You are responsible for your own taxes, and the firm does not provide tax advice—please consult your own tax professional.

What You Must Not Do

Your role is to give someone the firm's phone number or send us a name. Nothing more. You must not:

• Do not ask anyone in person, over the phone, or via real-time electronic communication about hiring the firm. Share the number in casual conversation or via text, message, or social media post—never under immediate, in-the-moment pressure.
• Approach accident victims or their families at a hospital, clinic, accident scene, tow yard, funeral home, or any similar location.
• Provide legal advice, estimate the value of a case, or predict any outcome.
• Say or imply that you work for, represent, or speak on behalf of the firm.
• Make any promise to anyone on behalf of the firm, including a promise that the firm will take on a case.
• Submit someone's contact information without their knowledge, or submit false, misleading, or fabricated information.
• Pay, or offer to pay, anyone else for names.

Violating this section will disqualify you from the program and void any unpaid fees.

Consent and Privacy

Before you submit someone's name or phone number, that person must know that you are sharing it and be willing to hear from us. The referral form requires you to confirm this.

We use the information you submit to contact the person you referred, to evaluate the potential case, and to process your referral fee. We do not sell it.

Submitting a referral does not make the person you referred a client, and the firm is under no obligation to contact them or to accept their case.

No attorney-client relationship

Participating in this program does not establish an attorney-client relationship between you and the firm, nor does it establish one between the firm and the person you referred. That relationship begins only when the firm and the client sign a written representation agreement.

Nothing you say to the person you refer is confidential or privileged, and nothing you say is binding on the firm. You are not responsible for the case, its costs, or its outcome—and you have no claim to any part of the client's recovery.

No guarantee of the outcome

Nothing on this page or on the referral page constitutes a promise regarding the outcome of any case. Every case is different, and past results do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any other matter.

Changes and Termination of the Program

The firm may change these terms, adjust the fee amount, suspend the program, or terminate it at any time, for any reason, without notice. Any changes take effect when posted on this page.

Referrals submitted before a change or the end of the program will be honored under the terms in effect on the day they were submitted.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. [DISPUTE RESOLUTION — venue, and whether the firm wants arbitration. To be decided by the attorney.]

If any part of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect.

Questions

If anything here is unclear, please call us before you refer someone. A real person will answer the phone.
