Outside General Counsel

Small businesses often encounter legal hurdles, but hiring a full-time in-house lawyer is a luxury they can't afford. When a critical legal issue arises, their only option is to engage a lawyer at a high hourly rate, which can be a significant burden. This creates a fundamental disconnect between small businesses and legal professionals. Small businesses aim to minimize risk and overhead while avoiding costly litigation or transactions. Our Outside General Counsel Program bridges this gap by providing dedicated legal guidance at a discounted rate for a fixed number of hours per month. This arrangement ensures accessibility during pivotal business moments and everyday operations, offering a predictable and practical solution for emerging companies with limited budgets.
