You can use Delegate.CreateDelegate to obtain a delegate to the method by name:

public static R ResponseHelper(T request, string serviceAction)
{
    var service = new ContentServiceRef.CMSCoreContentServiceClient();

    var func = (Func)Delegate.CreateDelegate(typeof(Func),
                                                  service,
                                                  serviceAction);

    return func(request);
}
