Limited Scope Services

There are times when you simply do not require the services of an attorney throughout your entire family law case.

You may only need help knowing the relevant law regarding a specific family law issue, or you may simply need assistance drafting documents.

With Schmitt Law’s Limited Scope Services, you are contracting with me for specific services, rather than hiring me to take over the entire case. That means you pay for only the services you need.
