Why Attorneys Refer Cases to Us
Referrals are the foundation of how we've built our practice. When a fellow attorney trusts us with their client, we take that seriously. It reflects their professional reputation, and we work to honor that trust with exceptional results and communication.
We've structured our firm specifically to handle referred cases with the attention they deserve. Every client receives two dedicated attorneys and two case managers assigned to their claim. This isn't overflow work for us—referred cases receive our full focus and resources.
What Sets Us Apart
Transparent Communication
You'll never wonder about the status of a referred case. We keep referring attorneys informed throughout the process, because your relationship with your client matters to us.
Competitive Referral Fees
We pay referral fees promptly and in accordance with applicable state bar rules. Our fee arrangements are straightforward, and we're happy to discuss structure before you refer.
Trial-Ready Representation
Insurance companies know which firms will take a case to trial. With 70 years of combined litigation experience and millions recovered in jury verdicts, we don't just negotiate—we prepare every case as if it's going to the courtroom.
Five-State Coverage
We're licensed and actively practicing in Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Colorado, and Illinois. If your client's injury occurred in any of these states, we can help.
For Businesses & Medical Providers
While this page is designed for our attorney referral partners, we also welcome referrals from local businesses and medical facilities who encounter clients in need of personal injury representation. If you're a chiropractor, physical therapist, medical provider, or local business owner, we'd be glad to discuss how we can work together to serve your clients.

Co-Counsel Partnerships
Some cases benefit from collaboration. We're built for it.
Not every referral needs to be a full handoff. For complex personal injury matters—catastrophic injuries, multi-party litigation, or cases requiring significant litigation resources—we welcome co-counsel arrangements that leverage both firms' strengths.
When you co-counsel with Mann Wyatt Tanksley, you stay involved in your client's case while gaining access to our trial experience, litigation infrastructure, and dedicated case management team.
What Co-Counsel Looks Like With Us
- Shared Strategy Development:We collaborate on case theory, litigation approach, and settlement strategy. Your insights about the client and local considerations remain valuable throughout.
- Resource Access: Our team handles the heavy lifting—depositions, expert coordination, document management, and trial preparation—while keeping you informed and involved.
- Clear Fee Arrangements: We establish fee splits upfront so there are no surprises. Our arrangements comply with all applicable state bar rules governing fee-sharing between attorneys.
- Client Continuity: Your client maintains their relationship with you while benefiting from our litigation resources. We work as an extension of your representation, not a replacement.
