At some point, you and your business will need legal advice from a skilled, experienced attorney. However, many start-ups and small businesses have extremely tight budgets. Most entrepreneurs pay for legal services only after they realize they need an attorney. Unfortunately, they are overlooking a valuable asset for their company – a fractional general counsel.

Many entrepreneurs discover that they need a competent general counsel at various stages in the business cycle. They need legal services to address matters related to intellectual property, employment matters, contract negotiation, contract review, litigation, and other legal issues. Few small-to-mid-size business owners have the budget to hire outside counsel a full-time, in-house counsel. Retaining a DC fractional general counsel for your company might give you the best of both options.
