The Law Society of Upper Canada (LSUC) got it right by imposing a hard cap on referral fees, says Barrie personal injury lawyer Steve Rastin.
The governing body approved a $25,000 limit on all referral fees at its April Convocation, with a sliding scale that puts a 15-per-cent cap on the first $50,000 in legal fees charged, plus five-per-cent on anything over that amount.
