When an attorney refers a case they still usually get a cut upon conclusion, from the new acting legal team, for the referral.

In the field of medicine/dentistry, this is considered unethical, but in the field of law, it is not.

Assuming the above applies to the area of IP litigation, I would think DM would still, indirectly, be tied to EDIG's future success, should they feel the need to step away due to any conflicts of interest.

Gil, care to weigh in?
