RULES & SOURCE GUIDANCE

Understand which requirements apply

Use established legal referral resources and independently confirm the lawyer’s current authority to practice in the relevant jurisdiction. A referral or category listing is not a specialist certification or an outcome guarantee. USAGov: finding legal help.

This is introductory guidance, not a complete review of every Kansas or local rule. A source may describe national guidance or professional standards rather than a legal requirement. Explore Kansas guidance.

PARTINGPOINT STANDARDS · PROPOSED FOR REVIEW

The evidence we propose requiring

These are our proposed review criteria, separate from legal requirements. Publishing them does not certify existing listings or change their badges.

Engagement and responsibilities

Identify the client and distinguish legal work from tasks the personal representative must complete.

Fees and reporting

Explain billing, court costs, communication frequency and the treatment of unexpected work.

Identity and relevant credentials

Record the responsible business or organization and service area. Check applicable licenses with the issuer and distinguish mandatory permissions from voluntary training or membership.

Clear terms and a contact for concerns

Keep dated service terms, charges or eligibility information, cancellation arrangements where relevant, and a named route for questions and complaints.

Keep evidence current

Record the source, date checked, scope and any expiry. Missing evidence remains unverified. We propose rechecking dated or expiring information and removing affected verification claims when evidence is no longer valid. These are proposed editorial controls, not an automated renewal system.

Payment or claiming a listing does not satisfy these checks. Any future recommendation would require separately published criteria.

QUESTIONS TO ASK

A useful starting conversation

• Which tasks and deadlines will you handle?
• How will we see progress and approve additional expense?
