Practice / Corporate Counsel
General Corporate Counsel
Growing businesses need steady, strategic legal guidance without the overhead of a full in-house legal department. We serve as outside general counsel—on call for the decisions that matter, fluent in your business, and priced for a company that is still scaling.
What the work involves
Entity and governance
Formation, operating and shareholder agreements, board and member resolutions, equity issuances and option plans, and corporate housekeeping that keeps the cap table clean.
Commercial contracts
Customer and vendor agreements, MSAs and SOWs, licensing, NDAs, and the day-to-day contract review that keeps deals moving without unnecessary risk.
Financings and transactions
Seed and growth equity rounds, convertible notes and SAFEs, debt facilities, and the occasional acquisition—handled by lawyers who do this work full time.
Fractional general counsel
A defined scope, a predictable fee, and a single point of contact for legal questions—so leadership gets counsel when it is needed, not a surprise invoice afterward.

How engagement & billing typically works
Fractional general counsel is offered on a defined scope with a predictable fee — often a monthly or quarterly arrangement — so leadership gets counsel when it is needed rather than a surprise invoice afterward. Discrete projects and transactions can also be handled on a standalone basis.
The above describes the kinds of matters this practice handles generally; it is not a representation about any particular engagement or outcome. Every transaction is different — tell us about yours.
