Services
outside general counsel
As outside legal counsel, we manage day-to-day legal matters for our clients. As well, typically will work on site at the client location. This approach allows us to develop intimate knowledge of your business, allowing us to develop trusting relationships with key individuals. Companies who engage our outside general counsel services fall into two main categories: (1) those without in-house counsel who need regular, on-going legal support but do not wish to hire a full-time in-house lawyer, and (2) those with in-house counsel who do not wish to add more full-time resources to their existing in-house staff.
Our outside general counsel service includes a broad range of services including transactional and corporate services, contract management, litigation counsel, employment, and compliance.
