Questions?

Good to know

Do I have to email you with every detail?

No. Most of this happens in a client portal.

What level of interaction is the fractional general counsel platform?

The lowest level offers 5-10 hours a week of legal services and is not part of your team. The upper tiers include adding me to your @company domain, and 24hr turn around.

Can I call you with questions?

Once a client is engaged, I typically do not bill for phone calls and 1/2 time for travel. This is within reason - but access to law is important.

Do you have long term contracts?

Fractional General Counsel is a three month-term minimum.

How do I reach you?

Email, phone and often booking same day appointments with fractional general counsel clients.
