Grow — Preliminary Firm Inquiry | Relevant
Relevant gives independent business and estate attorneys the brand, AI technology, and a full back office — while you keep 100% ownership.
Grow — Preliminary Firm Inquiry
The Grow form is a preliminary information and qualification inquiry only. Submission is not an offer and does not reserve a territory or market, award any brand right, or create any relationship.
RMS may discuss defined nonlegal branding, technology, recruiting support, administrative operations, and back-office services during a preliminary qualification process.
What You Gain — Institutional infrastructure, the day you join
01 Brand and client acquisition — A recognizable brand, a premium website, marketing, and a steady stream of the right clients.
02 Technology and the Ellis AI platform — Enterprise-grade practice management, security, and AI for research, drafting, and intake.
03 A full back office — Bookkeeping and accounting for your operating account, HR and recruiting support, procurement, and office build-out and design.
04 Strategy and growth — Dashboards, benchmarking, and a network of independent firms sharing what works.
What Stays Yours
You own 100% of your firm. We take no equity. Your clients and your files are always yours. Your legal judgment, your fees, and your client trust account stay entirely with you. We never share in your legal fees — the upside of your practice is yours.
A modern firm, built for efficiency. The best firms aren't bigger — they're more efficient. Relevant equips your firm with modern technology and AI tools that remove busywork. We provide the tools for efficiency; we never practice law or provide legal services — that always remains entirely with your firm.
For Established Firms: Already have a firm? We retrofit established practices onto the Relevant platform — a full rebrand and modernization with the brand, technology, AI tools, and back office — while you keep your ownership, your clients, and your independence. You don't start over; you upgrade.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you charge a royalty or take a percentage of our fees? RMS charges fixed fees or fixed per-seat fees for defined nonlegal services. RMS does not receive a percentage of legal fees, revenue, recoveries, settlements, or outcomes.
Do I keep ownership of my firm? Yes — 100%. Relevant never acquires or owns your practice.
Is there an investment to join? Yes. Joining involves a meaningful one-time investment to build out and launch your firm, plus fixed monthly platform fees.
Does submission reserve a market or create brand rights? No. The Grow form is a preliminary information and qualification inquiry only. Submission is not an offer and does not reserve a territory or market, award any brand right, or create any relationship.
Can I bring my existing firm onto the platform? Yes. We retrofit established firms onto the platform while you keep full ownership.
How is this a modern approach to law? We give your firm enterprise technology, automation, and the Ellis AI platform. You practice the law; we make the business efficient.
Who is Relevant looking for? Accomplished business and advisory attorneys who love both the law and business — people who understand how companies and families grow, think like owners, and care about their clients' success.
Who controls the legal work and the client relationship? The applicable attorney-owned firm does. Relevant Management Services (RMS) is a nonlegal management-services organization. RMS may provide branding, technology, recruiting support, administrative operations, and back-office services. RMS does not provide legal services; control professional judgment, client acceptance, conflicts, fees, legal staffing, supervision, trust functions, strategy, or legal judgment; receive, hold, or control client funds; or share legal fees or outcomes.
Application privacy and review: RMS and necessary service providers process this application for internal review. RMS may use automated or AI-assisted tools to summarize and organize the information; people review the application and make every final decision, and no acceptance or rejection is made solely by automated means. This is a private business communication, not a privileged communication, and it does not create an attorney-client relationship. Do not include client confidences, privileged communications, trust-account or client-fund information, deadlines, or substantive matter details.
