Fractional General
Counsel Solution
Strategic legal advice for businesses that need a senior lawyer at the table without hiring a full-time general counsel.
When does a business need a fractional general counsel?
A contract review can settle an individual issue. If the same issue keeps reaching the board, you may need someone to help decide what risk the business will accept and who can approve exceptions. A fractional general counsel works with your leadership team on those decisions and helps colleagues put them into practice.
Many businesses however do not have the budget nor workload for a full time hire, but still need access to a senior lawyer who can provide strategic guidance and legal assistance when needed.
Our Fractional General Counsel Solution does just that, providing the necessary level of support but without the cost and commitment of a full-time senior hire.
Our Fractional General Counsels can provide experienced guidance, and become a critical part of your business, taking on a wide role or managing distinct projects as necessary. Examples include providing:
Where routine day to day legal work is required Our Fractional General Counsels can arrange with you to access our On Demand Solution and utilise additional in-house lawyers from our team to carry out the work at the correct level and cost, ensuring the Fractional General Counsel is never drawn into non-strategic work and that you obtain value for money.
