The ultimate compliment is when a past OPPOSING party refers his or her own friend or relative. For our offices, that is not unusual. When asked "how were you referred to us" it is very gratifying to be told "you represented my friend's wife and he referred me to you". I'd like to think the referral is due to our professional, competent, approach and our genuine concern for our client's goals coupled with a mutual desire to restrain fees and costs whenever and wherever possible (so long as the client's legal issues are fully explored).
