Big corporations can afford to hire teams of in-house attorneys to handle their legal needs. As a business or non-profit organization, you probably can't afford to have an attorney on your payroll full-time. But you still need to know what legal risks you're potentially facing, you still need to avoid expensive surprises, you really need everything to work within your budget, and you still need to have your legal questions answered (including the questions you didn't even know to ask).
- Know exactly who to turn to with all of your legal questions.
- Pursue your passion without worrying that what you don’t know will come back to bite you.
- Save time—you have a business to run that already takes more hours than you have in a day. When were you planning to become a practicing attorney too?
- Most business disputes could have been avoided with preventative legal advice.
- Be able to honestly say, “Our attorney will handle this.”
Introducing General Counsel Service 2.0:
When I started this practice in 2014, I wanted to get as far away from billable hours as possible. Our small business clients deserve to be able to budget for their legal services without surprise bills coming back to bite them. And that is why we're updating our General Counsel Service. Rather than a "cap" on the number of attorney hours available to use, General Counsel Service includes the typical business counsel, business formation, and contract issues every business must deal with. From there, simply add on any additional practice areas that are relevant to your particular business.

The Fine Print:
- General Counsel Service requires a one year agreement. Each year, the Firm reserves the right to review your use of the Service and update your monthly or annual fee accordingly. We will always get your consent in writing prior to any fee changes.Third Party fees are additional and will be billed separately.
- General Counsel Service does not include raising money from investors or business acquisition services. The Firm no longer handles litigation. Howard, we may, on a case by case basis, endeavor to help clients reach an amicable resolution of any dispute.
- The Firm's employment law services are best for employers with less than 50 employees or independent contractors.
- Fees for additional services and/or changes mid-engagement can be added as as a flat fee or prorated over the remaining months of your service. All payment plans incur an additional 15% service fee.
- All fees and services described on this site are for information purposes only and are subject to change at any time. Until we have both a signed Engagement Agreement and your initial payment, the Firm reserves the right to quote you a new or different fee for services based on the unique legal needs of your business or non-profit organization.
