How referral fees work in Hawaii
Hawaii places its fee-division rule at 1.5(f), not 1.5(e), and it is stricter than the ABA Model Rule. The division must be in proportion to the services performed by each lawyer AND each lawyer must assume joint responsibility by written agreement with the client (both conditions, not either-or). The client must also be advised of and not object to the participation of all lawyers, and the total fee must be reasonable. Pure referral fees are not permitted.
