Outside GC is a new and innovative approach to legal services for growing and mature businesses. We are a team of senior business lawyers with substantial in-house experience who provide as-needed corporate counsel services at a fraction of the cost of either hiring a full-time executive level general counsel or relying exclusively on law firm counsel.

For companies with no in-house legal staff, we act as the general counsel who handles the legal function in your company (a role often played by the CEO or CFO in the absence of a general counsel). We perform day-to-day legal work and manage the legal services provided by outside counsel.

For companies that have a general counsel or in-house staff, we act as overflow attorneys, capable of being an extension of the general counsel, at a substantially lower cost than a traditional law firm, and without the need for supervision required by “contract” attorneys.

Outside GC attorneys handle the day-to-day legal matters of a business, including:

• Customer and Vendor Contracts
• Leases
• Bank financings
• Employment Matters
• Stock Option Plans
• Early-Stage Equity Financings
• Mergers and Acquisitions
• Technology Licensing
• Corporate Governance
• Risk Management - Policies and Procedures

We work with outside law firm counsel to coordinate litigation, SEC filings and other highly specialized work.
