Outside General Counsel

We serve as the legal team for growing and established businesses — providing continuity across ongoing work, significant transactions and the decisions that arise as your business develops.

Your legal team, as your business grows.

We work with management teams on the legal matters that arise in running a business. Knowing the company's contracts, ownership and history helps us give advice in context and carry that understanding into transactions and disputes.

Because we know your business, your contracts and your history, we can give faster, more practical advice — and anticipate issues rather than just respond to them.

Commercial Agreements

Master services agreements, statements of work, SaaS and subscription agreements, customer and vendor contracts, NDAs, licensing arrangements and negotiations with commercial counterparties.

Intellectual Property

Ownership and assignment of founder, employee and contractor IP; confidentiality; licensing; and IP provisions in development, services and commercial agreements. We coordinate specialist advice where appropriate.

HR and Employment

Offer letters, employment and consulting agreements, executive arrangements, workplace policies, employee departures, separation agreements and practical advice to management on employment issues.

Corporate Governance and Equity

Board and stockholder actions, corporate records, capitalization, equity incentives and coordination with the company's finance team and other advisers.

Disputes and Litigation Support

Advice and support when disputes arise for existing clients — assessment of claims, demand letters and responses, settlement discussions, document preservation and discovery support. We work within the agreed engagement, with specialist or trial counsel involved where appropriate.

Monthly arrangements

Monthly arrangements start from $3,500. The engagement identifies the services and level of support included. Commercial negotiations, employment matters and existing-client litigation support may form part of that agreed scope. Major transactions, substantial litigation or other work beyond that scope are separately agreed.
