For law firms

Building the right legal team around every case.

Onx Law represents injured people directly, and works with carefully vetted firms when another firm’s geography, specialization, resources, or experience would better serve the client. If your firm shares our standards for client care and ethical practice, we’d like to hear from you.

(01) — About Onx

A personal injury law firm, built around each case.

Onx Law is a personal injury firm serving Florida, Maryland, Washington, D.C. and New York, founded by Monica Washington Rothbaum. People come to Onx after an accident, often unsure where to start, and we evaluate each case to determine the right strategy, legal team, and resources for it.

Onx Law may represent the client directly. We can also work with, co-counsel with, or refer matters to carefully vetted attorneys when another firm has the particular geography, specialization, resources, or experience that would better serve the client. Our intake is modern, mobile-first and available in English and Spanish, and we keep communication clear from the first conversation.

(02) — How we work together

How a matter reaches your firm.

  1. Intake

    People reach Onx online or by phone, in English or Spanish. We gather what happened, where and when, the injuries involved and the treatment so far.

  2. Review

    An attorney-led review looks at the facts, the applicable law and potential conflicts, then determines whether Onx Law will handle the matter directly, with co-counsel, or through a partner firm that would better serve the client.

  3. Build the team

    When co-counsel or another firm would better serve the client, we consider jurisdiction, practice area, case type, resources and capacity. With the client’s consent, we share what your firm needs to evaluate the matter and run its own conflict check.

  4. Collaboration & updates

    If your firm accepts the matter, roles, responsibilities and any fee arrangement are confirmed in writing with the client, as the applicable rules require. We stay in touch as the case moves forward and ask for regular updates, so the client knows where things stand.

What partner firms can expect from Onx.

(04) — Qualification & vetting

What we look for in a partner firm.

We review each application individually and may ask for more information before a firm joins. Partner firms are expected to meet these standards for as long as they take part.

  • An active license in good standing in every jurisdiction where the firm will handle referred matters
  • Current professional liability (malpractice) insurance
  • Relevant experience in the practice areas and types of matters the firm accepts
  • Prompt, clear and respectful communication with clients, including regular case updates
  • Conflict checks completed before accepting any referred matter
  • Compliance with the rules of professional conduct, including the rules on fees, advertising and confidentiality
  • Willingness to confirm roles, responsibilities and any fee division in writing with the client

Every referral and co-counsel arrangement is made in line with the rules of professional conduct in each jurisdiction involved, including Florida’s specific rules for dividing contingency fees in injury cases. Any division of fees is made only with the client’s informed consent in writing, reflects the work each firm performs or joint responsibility for the matter as the applicable rules allow, and keeps the total fee reasonable.
