What is Limited Scope Representation?
Limited scope representation is a cost-saving legal service arrangement where the client and the lawyer agree that the lawyer will handle some parts of the case and the client will handle others. Limited scope representation is sometimes called “unbundling” or “discrete task representation”. Here’s more information about limited scope representation.
