Some of our clients also engage us to serve as their “outside general counsel.” This approach provides a number of benefits, including (i) our development of an in-depth understanding of the client’s business, legal affairs and advisory needs, facilitating efficient provision of legal services, and (ii) the client’s ability to delay hiring in-house counsel until the volume of work justifies the additional fixed cost.
