Cut and Paste Legal Services and the Threat of Legal Malpractice

We  reported on this a couple of weeks ago:  a la carte legal services rather than an entire meal.  Attorney and client agree on a specific service, ususally for a specific fee.  Problem?  The specific service may not be everything necessary.  As an example, attorney agrees to help client in divorce mediation, but does not check/change the pleadings, marshall the exhibits.

What happens when the result is sub-optimal and the client wonders where it all went wrong?  Here is astory on the movement.
