Fractional counsel:
Legal solution for small and medium businesses, start-ups, and NGOs
Most organizations need more legal help than they can afford at the hourly rates of standard law firms. Especially if the lawyers have to get up to speed on your business each time you call them.
Executives and business owners need quick, relevant advice to make the best possible decisions to guide their enterprises confidently. But unless you are a giant corporation, you just can't afford the efficiency of an in-house law department.
Fortunately, as a fractional legal counsel I can offer you:
- Dedicated legal service with ...- Outsourced flexibility and ...All the benefits of an in-house law department . . .
Small and medium size companies use their outside law firms for their regular legal services as well as for times when unique legal problems arise. In this structure you are billed a premium price for the flexibility of piece-work service on-demand.
Large companies have the economy of scale to use in-house law departments for negotiations and transactions, regulatory compliance programs, HR support, governance, corporate matters, government relations, product development support, reports and disclosure, contract drafting and administration, and other legal issues which arise from time to time. This involves significant initial and ongoing commitments, but substantially reduces the cost of legal needs.
Companies with in-house law departments also find that alert lawyers, informed about the business and fully participating in the company's mission, enhance corporate decision-making by providing rapid and relevant strategic input.
… At a price you can't afford to miss
Hiring fractional counsel solves the problem of scale and lets small and medium size organzations have the legal services and strategic advantages of in-house counsel, while avoiding the inflated overhead costs hidden in law firm bills, and the heavy cost commitment of a full-scale legal function.
