Limited Assistance Representation (LAR) in Massachusetts allows an attorney to assist with specific parts of a legal case rather than handling the entire matter. This approach can be beneficial for clients who wish to manage some aspects of their case independently, often due to cost concerns. LAR can involve document preparation, court representation, or providing advice and counsel. Attorneys must complete specific training to offer LAR and must file a notice of limited appearance with the court, detailing the scope of their representation. This arrangement requires a clear agreement between the attorney and client, outlining the tasks each will handle. Despite the limited scope, attorneys remain fully responsible for the tasks they undertake, maintaining duties of loyalty, confidentiality, and competence.
