LIMITED GENERAL PRACTICE

What is Limited General Practice?

Legal general practice refers to a law firm or legal practice that offers a wide range of legal services across various areas of law without specializing exclusively in one particular field. In essence, it's similar to the concept of a general practitioner in medicine. Legal general practice attorneys or law firms handle a diverse array of legal matters for their clients

Legal general practice attorneys provide a wide range of legal services to individual clients, small businesses, and sometimes larger organizations. They aim to offer comprehensive legal solutions to meet their clients' diverse needs, and they often act as the initial point of contact when individuals or businesses require legal assistance. If a specific legal issue requires specialized expertise, legal general practitioners may refer clients to attorneys who specialize in that area of law while continuing to oversee the overall legal strategy and client relationship.
