Why Hire a Fractional GC?


A highly effective General Counsel serves as a valuable member of your company’s management team, learning your business from the inside. With expertise and context, we can help you spot the key legal and business issues and determine the most efficient way to accomplish your goals, on time and within budget.


A fractional General Counsel provides high-level legal expertise on an as-needed basis, avoiding the overhead associated with hiring a full-time in-house counsel.

Fractional vs. Full-Time

A fractional GC can help manage and predict your legal expenses through fixed-fee arrangements or retainer models, helping you avoid unexpected legal bills.

Predictable Legal Spend

Beyond basic legal advice, a high quality General Counsel should be able to offer strategic business insights that contribute to your company’s growth and efficiency.

Strategic Business Insight

Fractional GC services are infinitely scalable, allowing you to access legal support when and where you need it. This flexibility ensures that you are not paying for idle time or underutilized resources.

Flexibility and Scalability

As a partner in your business, your GC can help proactively manage business risk, prevent costly legal issues before they arise, and saving your company potentially significant liability in the long run.

Proactive Risk Management

An experienced GC will embed within your company to quickly understand the specific needs of your business and provide efficient, effective solutions, typically giving better results at a lower price point than external law firms.

Efficiency and Speed

Law firm rates can be exorbitant for day-to-day legal issues.. A fractional GC offers a more cost-effective solution, delivering quality legal expertise at a fraction of the cost.

Avoid Big Law Rates

An experienced GC brings expertise over a broad spectrum of legal issues, reducing the need to rely exclusively on outside law firms, which can increase business cost and complexity.

Comprehensive Support

Bringing a broad-based experience in areas critical to startups, especially in risk management, and go-to-market expertise, your GC can provide the targeted support that directly addresses your most pressing needs.
