Unbundled Divorce Services
Assistance with limited scope representation (LSR) in divorce proceedings.
Assistance with limited scope representation (LSR) in divorce proceedings.
Unbundled divorce services are also known as limited scope representation (LSR). Limited scope representation allows us to define which parts of the process are designated to us, and which parts you are responsible for.
Unbundled services cater to people who want to represent themselves without hiring a full-service attorney. For example, typically, when you visit an attorney, you receive legal advice during a consultation. That consult is considered an unbundled service. Other examples of unbundled services include drafting pleadings, document review, conducting legal research, and preparing exhibits.
Attorneys are usually retained for full-service legal assistance in which they advise you throughout the case, prepare pleadings, speak to the opposing party or opposing counsel on your behalf, attend hearings, and work on your behalf every step of the way. Full-service assistance can be expensive, and may preclude some people from seeking legal assistance.
In an effort to provide more legal resources to our community, we are now introducing unbundled services for those who may not be able to afford full-service representation services, or for those who simply wish to represent themselves. However, if you are uncomfortable with the idea of having to tackle these issues on your own, feel free to discuss full-service divorce representation with us.
Not every case nor every person well-suited for unbundled services. For example, areas of law that are not suited for unbundled services include complex child custody issues, among others. If you need assistance from a child custody attorney in Little Rock, we can help.
Unbundled services work best with uncontested matters. To qualify for unbundled services, a client must be able to take the advice of the attorney and follow it step-by-step to complete their case. These steps may include filing pleadings, serving those pleadings on the opposing party or opposing counsel, speaking to the opposing party or opposing counsel, and appearing for and setting hearings.
To determine if you qualify for unbundled services, please call us today to set up a consultation.
