Unbundled Legal Services

What are Unbundled Legal Services?

“Unbundled Legal Services” a/k/a “customized client services” or “limited scope representation” (collectively ‘LSR’) are when an attorney and a client agree that the attorney will perform some, but not all, aspects of the client’s legal matter. The client is responsible for handling any and all aspects of his or her own case for which the attorney has not been retained. This allows the client to choose the level and scope of representation he or she desires and provides predictable control over the cost of various legal services.

I highly recommend her as an attorney who will help you through the most difficult legal challenges.” – Doug
