Mohr Marketing Compliance & Regulatory Brief

The Safe Harbor for Acquiring Signed Cases

Executive Summary

State Bar Associations and State Legislatures (such as California’s SB 37) are cracking down on “Capping” and “Runner” schemes. Buying a signed case for a flat bounty is increasingly viewed as an illegal referral fee. Mohr Marketing’s Post-Pay Joint Advertising Program allows you to acquire signed cases while remaining strictly compliant with fee-splitting and ethical advertising rules.

The Regulatory Trap: “Buying Cases”

If you pay a vendor $2,000 for a signed client, regulators may view that as a “commission.” Since the vendor is not a lawyer, this violates Rule 5.4 (Fee Sharing) and various state statutes regarding “Runners and Cappers.”

The Solution: The Dual-Entity Structure

To ensure your acquisition of signed cases is compliant, Mohr Marketing utilizes a strict firewall between advertising and administration.

How The Partnership Works

This is a 1-to-1 Joint Advertising & Administrative Support agreement.

Entity 1: Mohr Marketing, LLC (Media & Strategy)

We execute exclusive media buys to generate high-intent inquiries.

• You engage us as your Advertising Agency.
• We place media (TV, Digital, Social) to generate inquiries.
• Compliance: You pay the fair market value for the advertising, ensuring no “referral fee” is paid.

Entity 2: Legal Support Cases, Inc. (Intake & Admin)

Our US-based intake team contacts the lead immediately, qualifies them against your criteria, and secures the digital signature on your retainer.

• You engage this separate entity for Administrative Support.
• Our team acts as your outsourced intake department. We screen callers and send your Retainer Agreement via Docusign/HelloSign.
• Compliance: You pay a service fee for the labor of processing documents.

The “Post-Pay” Advantage

To further distance your firm from “pay-per-case” bounty schemes, we operate on a Post-Pay invoice model.

We are confident in our ability to convert. Unlike vendors who demand massive upfront deposits for uncertain results, our program operates on a Post-Pay basis.

• Align Cash Flow: You pay for the media and administrative labor after the campaign is executed, and the work is done.
• Zero Risk: You aren’t floating a budget for months while waiting for cases to trickle in.
• You receive a transparent invoice detailing the media spend and the labor costs after the services are rendered.
• This proves to any audit that you are paying for marketing and support services, not buying humans.

Compliance: The “Dual-Entity” Safe Harbor

Selling “signed cases” for a flat fee can look like an illegal bounty. We protect your license by separating the costs into two transparent, compliant buckets:

1. Media Expense: Paid to Mohr Marketing for advertising services.
2. Administrative Labor: Paid to Legal Support Cases, Inc. for document processing and intake support.

This structure ensures you are paying for services, not paying a commission for a client.

Verified Consent (TCPA)

Even for signed cases, the origin of the lead matters. We utilize TrustedForm and Jornaya to capture the “Digital Birth Certificate” of the lead before our intake team ever dials the phone. You receive this proof of consent with every signed case file.
