Unbundled Attorney

What is an unbundled attorney?

Most individuals look to hire a law firm for full representation or for a full bundle of services to represent them in a specific matter. An unbundled attorney can section off parts of the full representation bundle and provide limited legal services to an individual. 

Unbundled legal services has also been referred to as limited scope services or discrete task representation. 

Why would you consider hiring an unbundled attorney?

There are several reasons to consider hiring an unbundled attorney. In certain instances, you may feel comfortable representing yourself for some parts of your case, but require an attorney for more complex issues for a short period of time. You can utilize the services of an unbundled attorney for a specific purpose and then continue to represent yourself as your case continues.

You could also be nervous about hiring an attorney full time, as you may not know whether one particular attorney is right for you. You could essentially test an attorney out with hiring for a specific purpose and later decide if you want an attorney to later represent you in another unbundled capacity or for further assistance.
