When you hire one of our attorney for Limited Assistance Representation (“LAR”), you hire us for the part of your case you need help with, rather than the entire case. This can be a lesser cost alternative for those unable to afford full representation or for those with less complex issues for which LAR might be appropriate. No creeping costs that can overwhelm you, we will work with you to predetermine your costs and what you need done.

If you need help with a particular part of your case, such as filing a specific paperwork, or appearing at a certain hearing, LAR may be a terrific option for you. Our attorneys at Payne & Associates, have received the mandated training and been approved to provide these “a la carte” legal services directly to you.

Ghostwriting Legal Documents
Drafting a legal document such as an agreement, contract or pleading for court versus writing outside of the legal profession are completely different endeavors in what may appear to be almost different languages.   Let our attorneys provide their knowledge and experience in drafting and/or negotiating legal documents such as Purchase and Sales Agreements, Offers to Purchase, Contracts, etc. to assist you.  Having a professionally written legal document to present can greatly increase its efficacy and your protection.

Advocating for you for one event/issue before the court
Appearing in court is often intimidating. You can attempt to undertake the preparation for a court hearing yourself alone or simply hire us just to make the court appearance for or with you. Whether you need us to appear for the day or for a crucial hearing, we are happy to help present your case or argument effectively.  You will find that our firm is listed with The Real Estate Bar Association (“REBA”) and numerous courts around The Commonwealth of Massachusetts for LAR.

Handling Discovery and Court Preparation
Discovery can be daunting alone but our attorneys can assist you in both compiling discovery for your own case as well as obtaining all pertinent information from opposing council and/or third parties. We can also assist you in preparing for court, whether it be aiding you with court procedures or preparing an overall strategy.
