Fractional General Counsel
A fractional general counsel provides the strategic and legal guidance of an in-house attorney without the full-time cost. Companies gain access to experienced legal leadership on a part-time, flexible basis, scaling services to their needs as they grow or face complex legal challenges.
Companies use DeepLaw because our DNA is half business, half law. We’ve started up companies, run them, motivated and managed talented people, navigated legal shoals, and exited. Our fractional GCs have a level of business experience unusual among lawyers.
When your only tool is law, every challenge is a legal one. We use our experience to solve problems with the appropriate tool – whether drawn from our business experience, legal experience, or a combination of both.
