A LA CARTE LEGAL SERVICES
Legal services don’t need to be an all-or-nothing proposition. Not every client wants to pay the cost of full service representation, in which the lawyer is responsible for managing a legal matter from beginning to end. We offer limited-scope legal services as an alternative to full service representation.
WHAT ARE LIMITED SCOPE LEGAL SERVICES?
Limited scope legal services are different from full service representation where the attorney handles all tasks until a particular legal matter is resolved. In limited scope legal services, our attorneys handle some tasks related to a given legal matter while the client handles others. We do this on an a la carte basis, assisting a client with specific aspects of their case.
Our limited scope legal services break legal representation into smaller segments, allowing our clients to pay for certain services a la carte. This allows our clients to:
- Choose only the legal services they need.
- Enjoy an up-front understanding of the services provided and how much those services cost.
- Access valuable legal expertise when needed while having the flexibility to manage the parts of their case that don’t require legal expertise.
