An outsourced General Counsel who knows business - and knows your business.
Not all businesses need full-time in-house legal help - but many need more than the occasional helping hand. A Fractional General Counsel is part of your business, works with your processes, and knows what’s important to you - but you choose how much help you need. And you know the cost will be the same every month.
-
A fractional GC can help expedite deals, negotiate with your customers and vendors, lower your risk, accelerate your sales cycle, help with HR and employment issues, even manage outside counsel for litigation or M+A, lowering your costs and keeping projects on track.
A fractional GC can also take on specific projects, like helping you choose and purchase new corporate insurance, set up new contracting policies and processes, train sales or other departments - the scope is up to you.
-
J. D. has worked both in law firms and extensively in-house, and knows what business owners, founders, and executives want from their legal service providers. He’s also worked extensively with sales leadership and front-line account managers, and can speak the language of sales and push deals to close.
-
A fractional GC arrangement begins with a (free) deep dive to discover the expected work volume and sometimes a trial period, but the goal is always the same: a clear scope of work that covers what you need, and a flat subscription rate (monthly) that you can budget for.
-
A fractional GC should feel like a seamless member of your team - we can be on your Slack or Teams, work with your CLM or CMS, attend regular cadence meetings with your sales or leadership teams, even get an email address from your company. You control access to the attorneys, but we can be as available as you want us to be.
