General counsel
Most growing businesses come to a point where they need regular legal counsel, but are not yet in a position to hire a full time general counsel. Paying for this on an hourly basis often doesn't meet the needs of the business, as issues often go unaddressed for fear of unanticipated legal bills. We can serve as outside general counsel to North Carolina-based startups, from founding teams to 100+ person companies. Our generalist practice and real life general counsel experience helps companies manage their legal function efficiently at each stage of a startup's life cycle.
