Campbell Barrett To Speak at Connecticut Bar Association Event on Limited Scope Representation

Campbell D. Barrett, chair of Pullman & Comley's Family Law practice, will speak at a May 17, 2022 Connecticut Bar Association event on the concept of Limited Scope Representation (LSR) as a tool of emerging importance for Connecticut attorneys. LSR, or the agreement by an attorney to take on only some part of a client's matter, can both help broaden access to crucial legal representation and allow attorneys to increase revenues and expand client bases.

Attendees will be given a broad understanding of both the importance and practical application of LSR, as Campbell and his fellow speakers touch on:

• The importance of LSR and the prevalence of self-represented litigants in critical civil legal disputes;
• How to use LSR effectively in Connecticut courts;
• Economic profile of a typical Connecticut resident: what are the financial positions and constraints of most Connecticut households?   What is the economic profile of your potential client community?
• Practical do’s and don’ts of using LSR, including tips for engagement letters and ending representation by using Certificates of  Completion of Limited Appearance
• How LSR can help you increase your paying client base, or allow you to engage in meaningful pro bono representation; and
• The ethical and procedural rules of LSR in Connecticut.
