Florida Outside General Counsel
Hiring a full-time in-house counsel involves a sizeable annual salary and other requirements. While this is often common practice among large organizations, it can be a financial drain on smaller companies. For many startups and small businesses with leaner operations, in-house counsel may not be an option at all. With outside general counsel services from Capital Partners Law, your business can receive legal work on an “as needed” basis, providing a cost-effective solution.
Our attorneys will work with you to:
√ draft and review your operating agreements
√ negotiate your business agreements
√ support your business planning
√ support business formation issues, including incorporation and entity selection
√ assess risks and thus prevent disputes and setbacks from happening
√ support personnel across your company, from owners to shareholders, as needed
Business transactions can involve significant investments. Given the financial stakes, securing resolutions efficiently and effectively is critical. At Capital Partners Law, our firm offers guidance to executives and managers in corporate governance and compliance accountability. We also provide ongoing counsel to ensure our clients are satisfying industry-specific licensing and regulatory obligations.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is outside general counsel?
Outside general counsel is ongoing business legal support provided on an as-needed basis, giving a company experienced counsel without the cost of a full-time in-house lawyer. It typically covers contracts, governance, compliance, disputes, and day-to-day legal questions.
How is outside general counsel different from hiring in-house counsel?
In-house counsel is a full-time, salaried employee, while outside general counsel provides similar ongoing guidance on a flexible, as-needed basis — without the salary, benefits, and overhead. It suits businesses that need regular legal support but not a full-time lawyer.
Is there a long-term contract for outside general counsel?
Outside general counsel arrangements are typically flexible rather than locked into a long-term contract, and can scale up or down as a business’s needs change. This makes the model workable for both startups and established companies.
What does outside general counsel typically handle?
Outside general counsel commonly handles contracts and negotiations, corporate governance, regulatory compliance, employment questions, vendor and customer disputes, financing matters, and the everyday legal questions of running a business.
What types of businesses use outside general counsel?
Capital Partners Law provides outside general counsel to startups, growing companies, and established businesses across South Florida and a range of industries.
