External General Counsel
Your own General Counsel, at a fraction of the cost. This innovative, scalable service is perfect for businesses who are looking for a dedicated lawyer in their company but don’t want a full-time employee.
Most growing businesses do not have their own legal department, but that does not mean they do not have legal issues ranging from contracts through to litigation, IP issues and employment disputes. A General Counsel can advise on many of the typical legal matters that a business owner faces, such as advising on a new contract and giving general legal advice. They can also oversee and coordinate other specialised lawyers to make sure you are getting the best service possible. For businesses operating overseas, a General Counsel with international experience can be invaluable to act as a connection between foreign lawyers and business owners.
