Outside General Counsel

Your trusted legal partner for ongoing business counsel and strategic guidance

Your Legal Department, On Demand

Every business needs legal counsel, but not every business needs a full-time in-house attorney. As your outside general counsel, we provide comprehensive legal support tailored to your needs and budget, serving as an extension of your management team.

We become intimately familiar with your business, industry, and goals, allowing us to provide proactive, strategic advice that helps you avoid problems before they arise and capitalize on opportunities as they emerge.

Comprehensive Legal Support

As your outside general counsel, we handle the full spectrum of your business legal needs, providing the same level of service as an in-house legal department at a fraction of the cost.

Our services include:

  • Day-to-day legal advice and counsel
  • Contract review and negotiation
  • Regulatory compliance guidance
  • Employment law matters
  • Vendor and customer agreements
  • Risk assessment and mitigation
  • Corporate governance support
  • Intellectual property protection
  • Strategic business planning
  • Dispute resolution and litigation management
  • Mergers and acquisitions support
  • Crisis management and response
