Approach to Providing Unbundled Legal Services

Interviewing the client extensively to confirm their goals and areas of potential need for an unbundled service. Ensuring client fully understands your opinion and limited services, signing off on documentation to this end. Not accepting any cases for unbundling where clearly representation is necessary from start to finish. Always ensuring the Court is made aware of your limited retainer with a client, to avoid problems later.

Cultural Diversity Experience

As an indigenous woman, I am focused on issues of ensuring equal access to justice, not only for indigenous people but all marginalized people. I understand additional effort or tone may need to be spent with clients who have difficulty understand a process or Order due to cultural issues. Patience and listening are key to fully assessing how I best can serve a client from a diverse cultural background.
