How referral fees work in Alabama

Alabama follows the ABA two-path pattern (proportional division, or joint responsibility by written agreement with the client) but adds a third path unique to contingency-fee cases: the fee may simply be divided between the referring/forwarding lawyer and the receiving lawyer with no proportionality or joint-responsibility requirement. In all cases the client must be advised of and not object to each lawyer's participation, must be told a division will occur, and the total fee must not be clearly excessive. So pure referral fees are effectively permitted in contingency matters but not in hourly or flat-fee matters.
