Unbundled Legal Service

Unbundled Family Law Services – San Jose, CA

Family law is very emotional, unpredictable and high stakes. It’s hard to predict exactly what will be required at various points in the legal process, since so many variables can influence your matter. The best way to approach a family litigation issue is to retain experienced, agile representation that is able and willing to advocate on your behalf on an unbundled basis, as your needs change.

Unbundled family law services are typically not offered as much in major metropolitan areas. Why? Mainly because attorneys stand to gain by bundling their services and keeping retainer fees as the norm. In this setting, there is no incentive for attorneys to work toward a swift and just end, or to settle cases and truly negotiate their clients’ position. Unbundled services truly keep clients’ needs at the center of the matter at hand. Sometimes you’ll need a tireless advocate who will vigorously defend claims against you in family court, and sometimes you’ll need a master negotiator and peacemaker to get the best possible outcome.

An accomplished family law attorney can help you navigate Superior (divorce), family court or child support court in a manner that keeps your family’s well being as the core of the case. That said, there are times you’ll need advice or petition preparation for simple matters or matters of routine. In these cases, if you’re in San Jose, seeking the services of an unbundled family law attorney may make sense. In an unbundled arrangement, an attorney handles a limited scope of known needed work in exchange for a lower fee than a bundled attorney would charge. This can make sense in many different matters.

Only a consultation with an experienced professional can help decide whether or not your case is a good fit for unbundled family law services. If you’re in San Jose, a visit to our office would help you sort out what’s needed in your case, since the complexity of family law matters can vary greatly on points of case law and typical procedure.
