Fractional General Counsel
The Problem 1000s of Businesses Face
Plenty of small and mid-sized businesses go about their daily operations without ever considering how a dedicated counsel might help them minimize risks, maximize the best use of their time, and advise them on various issues that negatively impact their businesses if left unaddressed. The cost to hire an in-house general counsel averages between $250,000.00 and $500,000.00, excluding benefits and bonuses. But there is another option: the fractional general counsel.
The TK Law Solution
TK Law offers fractional general counsel services at competitive rates through monthly flat rate billing. This will give companies access to a set number of hours of priority time, meaning your needs will be addressed promptly. This offers a predictable budgetary line item and encourages businesses to address their legal needs proactively (and more cost-efficiently) instead of waiting until a bigger problem arises.
But why choose us?
That answer is simple. Over the years, Mr. Knobbe has developed a reputation for handling the unique and complicated litigation matters that others shy away from. As a result, his litigation experience is varied and ranges from premises liability to Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act to Lanham Act claims, and he has tackled all manner of commercial disputes from both a plaintiff and defense side. That has exposed Mr. Knobbe to a wide range of areas. Mr. Knobbe has also developed cordial relationships with plenty of colleagues who handle various types of litigation matters. Combining these two traits means that Mr. Knobbe can evaluate the needs of your business across a wide spectrum of issues and help develop proactive strategies to minimize risk. If litigation issues still arise, Mr. Knobbe can recommend and manage outside counsel to pursue or advance the litigation in nearly all situations.
How Does a Business Benefit?
Let's face it. Two things keep you from calling a lawyer: (1) the meter is running from the minute the lawyer picks up the phone; and (2) you have to spend time "training" your lawyer on what your business does in the first place. This makes the process of getting critical advice time-consuming and needlessly expensive.
With a fractional general counsel paid on a flat monthly rate, the expense is already paid. Set it and forget it. With a consistent face acting as your trusted legal advisor, you also develop a long-term relationship where that lawyer understands your business much as an in-house counsel would but at a fraction of the price.
Put simply, for the same reason companies of all sizes employ fractional CEOs, CFOs, COOs, and HR directors, those companies benefit from fractional general counsel.
