Refer a client you can’t take, grow your practice on our platform, or transition the practice you’ve built.
Why lawyers work with FairPlay
Individuals only
FairPlay represents employees and professionals, never the company, so referring or affiliating creates no channel conflict with corporate clients of large law firms.
Senior counsel
The firm is led by senior lawyers who worked on employment teams at major companies and built and sold legal businesses. Meet Our lawyers.
AI-native
The FairPlay Analytics report earns a client’s trust before they retain, and AI makes the work faster and more thorough.
Transparent fees
Clients are priced clearly and fairly, so a person you send is treated well.
The situation
At large law firms (most of the AmLaw 200) that primary represent companies, employment questions from individuals arrive constantly, from friends, colleagues, and former clients.
And you can’t take them, whether because of conflicts, because your firm doesn’t represent individuals, or because it’s outside your practice.
Turning someone away with nothing doesn’t serve them, and it doesn’t reflect well on you.
Send them to a firm that can help
FairPlay represents individuals only, with senior employment lawyers, a proprietary data driven analytics report that shows the person where they stand, and flat, transparent fees.
The person you refer is looked after, and the referral reflects the care you’d want to be known for.
How it works
Make a quick, confidential introduction and FairPlay Law takes it from there, keeping you appropriately informed.
Practice with FairPlay
Keep your practice and your independence. Affiliate with FairPlay, of counsel or co-counsel depending on your situation, and bring your matters onto a platform that gives you a recognized brand, AI that converts and accelerates the work, and a back office that runs the administration. Who we’re looking for:
N° 01
Independent employment practitioners
Supplement your practice, and call on FairPlay attorneys as co-counsel when a client’s matter reaches a state where you aren’t admitted.
N° 02
Current and former in-house employment counsel
Bring a career of advising companies to the other side of the table and represent the employees and professionals you understand so well.
N° 03
Government and agency alumni
Lawyers from the EEOC, the Department of Labor, the NLRB, and state agencies bring credibility and a deep read on how these matters are decided.
N° 04
Senior partners planning a transition
A way to transition your practice and clients with continuity and build value from what you’ve created (see the succession program below).
N° 05
Employment lawyers in new markets
We’re building a national network; if you’re admitted and practicing in a market we’re growing into, grow with us as local counsel.
N° 06
Lawyers building a plaintiff-side practice
If you’re moving toward representing individuals, get the brand, tools, and support to build a book instead of starting cold.
Why practice with FairPlay

The FairPlay Analytics report that turns inquiries into engagements
AI tools that let you handle more matters without adding hours
Back office that handles intake, billing, collections, and administration
National co-counsel network, so when a matter crosses into a jurisdiction where you aren’t admitted, you keep the client.

The work, and who you’d represent
