Some clients prefer working with Joe Estrada remotely via telephone and/or internet to reduce expenses, alleviate strain on job and family commitments and of course to avoid sitting in traffic.
Our remote communication platform allows for easy transmittal of legal documents and court filings. In fact, many of our clients reside and work outside of San Bernardino and Riverside county, including other California counties, other states and even other countries. While in person consultations are rarely necessary, they are readily available as needed.
We provide expert consultation, advice, strategy planning and document preparation services on a convenient, cost effective and collaborative remote basis.
Limited Scope Services
A major client benefit of limited scope services is the ability of the client to manage his/her own litigation budget (by doing some of the case work themselves) and retaining Joe Estrada for more difficult tasks and/or significant issues. Clients pay only for the legal services they want, when they want them. Our pay as you go business model offers considerable flexibility and provides clients with more control and financial certainty about attorney fees and court costs. Instead of being retained for an entire case. Examples of limited scope services include:
Prepare family law documents and forms to start or respond to a divorce, child custody matter, child support matter, paternity action and all other family law matters
Assistance with strategy and/or coaching for your family law case.
Help with certain more complicated issues where the stakes are high such as child custody, while the client handles easier issues themselves.
CONSULTING ATTORNEY
Another option to manage your expenses – while also keeping your name on court pleadings as being self-represented, also known as pro per – is to engage Joe Estrada as your consulting attorney and legal advisor relating to family law matters. As a consultant, there is still an attorney-client relationship and confidentiality. Examples of consulting services provided by our office include:
Legal analysis and assessment of your family law matter to identity legal issues and inform the client of his/her rights and options.
Legal advice, direction, strategy planning and information so as to achieve the client’s goals and objectives and protect her/his rights.
Assistance with case management and preparing and filing necessary court documents.
Assistance with helping the client negotiate a settlement.
