Stafford gave 15 percent of his legal fees to blevins who


Florida lawyer Shane Stafford arranged for Roy Blevins, a West Palm Beach police officer, to solicit personal injury cases for him. In an eighteen-month period, Blevins referred ten or eleven cases to Stafford, including three automobile accident cases he investigated as a police officer. Stafford gave 15 percent of his legal fees to Blevins, who received approximately $11,000 total. Is such a referral arrangement legal and ethical? [The Florida Bar v. Stafford, 542 So.2d 1321 (Fla. 1989).]
