Attorney-Client Relationship Clause Samples
The Attorney-Client Relationship clause establishes the formal legal relationship between a client and their attorney. It typically clarifies when the relationship begins, the scope of legal services to be provided, and the responsibilities of both parties. For example, it may specify that the attorney will only represent the client in a particular matter and not in unrelated legal issues. This clause is essential for ensuring both parties understand the boundaries and expectations of their professional engagement, thereby preventing misunderstandings and setting a clear foundation for the provision of legal services.
