Unbundled legal services or limited scope representation are great when you want to represent yourself or you do not need an attorney for the whole scope of your matter. Whether you need help drafting a critical motion, preparing for a court date, or getting expert advice before a major negotiation, I will help you meet your unique need.
Additionally, I am available for contract attorney work in the greater Portland, OR area.
Examples of unbundled services I offer:
Legal Advice & Consultation: I provide strategic advice and answer your specific questions to help you understand your rights, responsibilities, and legal options so you can represent yourself effectively.
Document Preparation & Review: I can help you draft or review specific legal documents, such as initial petitions, motions, agreements, or discovery requests, ensuring they meet legal requirements and clearly state your position.
Parenting Plan/Custody Order Drafting: I can draft detailed parenting plans and proposed custody orders for you to file.
Coaching for Self-Representation (Pro Se): If you choose to handle your case primarily on your own, I offer coaching sessions to guide you through court procedures, evidence presentation, and negotiation strategies.
Legal Research & Analysis: I conduct targeted research on specific legal questions relevant to your case and provide you with a detailed analysis of the findings.
"Ghostwriting" Legal Correspondence: I draft professional correspondence for you to send on your own letterhead to the opposing party or their counsel.
Contract Review Services: Signing a contract legally binds you to its terms, making a thorough review essential to protect your interests and minimize risk. My unbundled contract review services offer a cost-effective way to access expert legal analysis without the expense of full-scope representation. You maintain control of your case while we ensure you understand the fine print before you sign. I will review, edit, or draft the contract you need.
Custom Contract Template Creation: I will create for you industry-specific templates designed to protect your interests, clarify obligations, and ensure consistency across all your agreements. This service is perfect for small business owners and freelancers who frequently need to issue similar contracts (e.g., new client agreements, independent contractor agreements, or non-disclosure agreements) and want the confidence that their foundational documents are legally sound.
