Don’t Swim with the Sharks: More Help for Your Business

You asked, and we gladly responded: To better meet our clients’ needs, we have added a Fractional Corporate General Counsel to our practice. This is not a new area for Attorney Tim Kenneally.  During his decades of practicing law he often handles the many business issues clients face.  We now have several fixed fee services and innovative ways for your business to get General Counsel help without the cost.

WHY FRACTIONAL GENERAL COUNSEL?

Running a small business often feels like carrying a tray of steaks across a tightrope over a pool of hungry sharks. You know you should have a lawyer as a safety-net, but hiring a full-time general counsel can feel like bringing a tank to a go-cart race. Enter Foley & Foley PC’s Fractional Outside General Counsel: the legal firepower you need, without the overhead you don’t. You’ll have a seasoned legal pro on speed dial, minus the full-time salary, benefits and related overhead.

Cost Efficiency and Budget Management: The most significant advantage for small companies is cost efficiency. Small businesses often lack the resources for a full-time, in-house legal team . Smaller companies find it more cost-effective to partner with outside counsel for as-needed services, rather than maintaining a permanent legal staff.

Scalable and Flexible: Outside general counsel offers superior scalability compared to in-house alternatives. Outside counsel can be easily scaled up or down based on the company’s changing legal needs, providing flexibility in managing legal costs.

Specialized Expertise and Comprehensive Support: Outside counsel provides access to multiple attorneys who bring specialized expertise and experience from working with multiple clients.

Objectivity and Strategic Perspective: External attorneys maintain objectivity while working to understand the company’s specific context. Being external to the company, outside counsel can provide more impartial and objective legal advice without being influenced by internal politics or pressures.

Proactive Risk Management: Outside general counsel acts as a proactive partner, identifying and mitigating legal risks to protect the business through personalized and ongoing support. This proactive approach helps in every aspect from day to day compliance to long term strategy.
