Outside General Counsel Services to complement in-house legal departments for on-call projects

Steve also offers his outside general counsel services as a blend in with in-house legal departments, which want to have a major law firm handle their matters, but have a need for an experienced solo lawyer to take on various on-call assignments, or a certain scope of work, for the company on a cost-conscious basis  At the request of a solo General Counsel for a nationwide group of manufacturing companies, I have served as a contracts negotiator, led a two year project to revamp an entire nationwide distributor and sales representative force after a major merger, and developed a Title VII program dealing with sexual harassment training  for each of the 10 subsidiary nationwide companies.

If your business is at a growth point where instead of hiring outside counsel to work by the hour, it could use a certain number of hours per month of a general counsel who knows your business and corporate culture and can work on a flat fee at your office, or be otherwise available to your company by phone or Skype, or if your in-house legal department is in need of cost-effective assistance for legal work, you should consider our services as outside general counsel.
