Mid-2026 State Regulation Review | Relevant Newsroom
A high-level review of state legal-services regulation developments.
Press Release — Published 2026-07-22
State approaches to legal-services regulation differ. RMS provides defined nonlegal services for fixed fees or fixed per-seat fees, never a share of legal fees or outcomes.
RMS does not provide legal services, control legal work or judgment, or receive or control client funds. Whether a particular relationship is permitted remains a fact- and jurisdiction-specific question for qualified counsel.
