Limited Scope Legal Assistance: If you ever assist pro se patrons, did you know that the ABA, “Handbook on Limited Scope Legal Assistance” has lots of information and forms such as sample retainer agreements and checklists for apportioning tasks? You can find a copy of this report of the ABA Section of Litigation at the Modest Means Task Force home page. For an interesting blog post on a closely related subject, see MyShingle, posting on 1/25, about attorneys and “cut rate” service. Clearly there is a problem looking for a solution.
