Every business needs a team of professionals to effectively operate and make a profit. However, many small companies, and especially start-ups, quickly realize that bringing those experienced professionals on as employees might not be feasible or affordable. The salary and benefits for an experienced, full-time, in-house attorney are substantial. A modern approach to dealing with this challenge is contracting with “fractional” professionals who work for the company based on an outsourced and part-time arrangement – what we call Fractional General Counsel.
You have probably consulted with a business lawyer when you formed your business, and you may have consulted with an attorney when you had questions or issues related to specific business matters. By now you realize, however, that you need legal counsel who has been educated about your specific operations and is consistently available to you on short notice to deal with issues as they arise.
Working closely with our clients, we gain an in-depth understanding of their business activities, objectives, past history, and future goals. This enables us to provide focused, client-centered, and cost-effective advice and counsel on legal issues confronting our clients on a daily basis. In our role as Fractional General Counsel, we are the proverbial “first responder” when our clients encounter business issues with legal implications.
If for any reason we cannot handle a particular case for you, then we locate and retain the proper legal counsel to meet your company’s needs and oversee that attorney’s work – including reviewing their bills for you. Many business owners either find themselves calling attorneys frequently and paying expensive hourly rates, or avoid calling an attorney altogether for fear of what the cost will be – This can turn cavities into root canals.
By using Fractional General Counsel, these tough choices and the fear of large legal bills are eliminated. We offer flexible fee structures and flat monthly fees. By all means, our services cost far less than the traditional hourly fees charged by comparable or larger firms.
At Weinberger Law, we focus on tailoring our Fractional General Counsel services to your company’s specific needs and budgets. Please contact us at 480-536-9991 so that we can begin the process of learning about your business and help you determine what type of Fractional General Counsel structure is best for your company.
We are business lawyers, and we know that when lies threaten your financial well-being, the last thing you want to worry about are legal fees. We offer creative, personally tailored structures so we can get to work for you and get your business back on track.
