Limited Scope Services

Our firm offers flat-fee limited scope legal services for self-represented litigants and individuals using My Illinois Court Navigator™ who need focused attorney assistance with a specific legal task.

How It Works

  1. Browse the services below and identify the one that matches your legal need.

  2. Submit our Limited Scope Request Form with a brief description of your matter.

  3. Our team reviews your submission, conducts a conflict check, and responds within one business day with a flat-fee quote and next steps.

  4. Once you approve the quote and sign your engagement agreement, we get to work.

No payment is required until you receive and approve your engagement agreement.

Disclaimer: Services are limited in scope and apply only to the specific task selected. Booking does not create an ongoing attorney-client relationship beyond the defined service. No work will begin until the firm completes a conflict check and confirms representation. If a conflict is identified, the firm may: (a) decline representation and issue a refund consistent with our refund policy, or (b) where appropriate and permissible, assign the matter to another attorney within the firm.
