Frequently Asked Questions

What is outsourced general counsel?

Outsourced or fractional general counsel is an arrangement where an experienced attorney serves as your company's primary legal advisor on a part-time or retainer basis — without the cost of a full-time in-house hire ($250,000+ salary + benefits). You get the strategic value of an integrated GC at a fraction of the cost.

How much does outsourced GC cost?

Our corporate counsel arrangements start with monthly retainers tailored to your volume and complexity of legal needs. Most clients in the $5M–$50M revenue range find our monthly fee covers all routine legal work while providing significant cost savings over ad hoc hourly billing.
