Seth Price is joined by Glen Lerner of the renowned Lerner and Rowe law firm, as well as Gabriel Stiritz, CEO of Lexamica, a lawyer referral management platform that the two have partnered to bring to market. The platform is designed to help law firms both big and small as they send out and receive referrals. Instead of sending a referral to a firm and never hearing whether a case was settled or receiving a referral fee due to a lack of transparency, Lexamica is built so that law firms can track the referrals they send and receive, ensuring that important cases do not slip through the cracks, and that firms get financially compensated in a timely manner for their referrals.
