Shift to the Digital Paradigm Will Hornsby Unmet need Two tiers of law practice: corporate/institutional clients & personal plight lawyers Pro se and unbundling Inefficiencies of traditional model and digital design efficiencies

Client development Intake and screening Client education Form preparation Geographical barriers Ongoing client communication Dispute resolution Ancillary businesses

What is Unbundling? “The client is in charge of selecting one of several discrete lawyering tasks contained within the full-service package.” Forrest Mosten

Why do we care? Access to Justice remains a serious problem in the US and “…by providing limited service representation or ‘unbundled’ services in the area of civil law [we may be able to] stretch limited ‘free’ services and make for cost services affordable to a larger segment of our society. Kim Prochnau King County Superior Court Administrator

LSC Act of 1974: Five Fundamental Objectives 1. continuing the "present vital legal services program"; 2. ensuring "equal access" to our system of justice "for individuals who seek a redress of grievances"; 3. providing "high quality legal assistance to those who would be otherwise unable to afford adequate legal counsel"; 4. keeping the legal services program "free from the influence of or use by it of political pressures," 5. assuring that "attorneys providing legal assistance... have full freedom to protect the best interests of their clients in keeping with the [ethics codes]... and the high standards of the legal profession."
