"Unbundled legal services are employed as an attempt to lower costs for the client by reducing the amount of time an attorney spends - and therefore the amount the attorney bills - on a legal matter.[4] An American Bar Association study estimates that "fewer than three in ten of the legal problems of low-income households are brought to the justice system and only four in ten for moderate income households."[5] According to the The New York State Bar Association, "[u]nbundling is seen as a way to increase legal access for middle income consumers…" "Clients find unbundling attractive because it saves money and gives them more control over the process and strategy decisions."
