Independence Statement

At Clean Law, our paramount duty is to the court and the administration of justice. Within that framework, our loyalty is never divided: we act only in the interests of our clients, never in partnership with courtroom firms.

Why this matters

Clean Law was created to protect clients from conflicts of interest. Some courtroom lawyers may state publicly that they are prepared to “work with Clean Law.” We welcome this, because it shows they respect your choice. But cooperation never means partnership or shared financial interests.

What such declarations mean

• They mean the courtroom firm accepts the client’s decision to engage Clean Law as client-side lawyers.

• They do not mean Clean Law and the courtroom firm share fees, alliances, or business arrangements.

• They do not alter our paramount duty to the court or our duty of loyalty to our client within that framework.

Our safeguards remain the same

• No referral fees. We never accept commissions or inducements from courtroom firms.

• No partnerships. We do not form alliances with firms we oversee.

• Escrow and audits. Client funds remain in a Law Society-audited trust account, released only with client approval.

Your choice, always

Whether a courtroom lawyer has publicly said they will work with us or not, Clean Law’s independence never changes. Our paramount duty is to the court. Within that framework, our duty of loyalty is solely to our client.
