For companies and managers
Ongoing Corporate Counsel
Ongoing legal advice for the company’s day-to-day decisions: contracts, relations among partners, regulatory risks and dispute prevention.
The problem
The costliest decisions are often made without legal advice
Signing a standard contract, responding to a notice, accepting a guarantee or changing how you invoice may seem like routine decisions. These are often the decisions that, months later, lead to litigation, a violation notice or personal liability for the manager.
Ongoing counsel gives the company direct access to the lead lawyer for these decisions, backed by accumulated knowledge of the business and of the risks already identified.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions
Why retain ongoing counsel?
It allows risks to be anticipated and disputes avoided, with a lawyer who already knows the company and can respond quickly.
Does ongoing counsel replace an in-house legal department?
For companies without in-house counsel, it can fill much of that role. For companies with a legal department, it provides specialized support.
For general information only. Each case depends on a review of the documents and the stage of the proceeding.
