Extended Counsel LLC is a virtual law firm focused on outside general counsel services, including commercial contract review, draft template contracts and policies, compliance and audit review and development of key legal functions (ex: legal intake and review policies, legal/business playbooks and contract and vendor management).
The firm's mission is to help close legal gaps and scale legal functions for businesses without legal counsel and legal departments with high workloads. To accomplish this, Extended Counsel offers:
- Fractional legal services for businesses and legal departments that need regular or periodic legal support, without a minimum hour commitment;
- Monthly subscription services for businesses that need counsel on call or monthly legal services at a reduced rate; and
- Flat or hourly fees for individual legal matters.
The key benefits provided by Extended Counsel are:
- Counsel with in-house legal experience that can quickly understand business issues and internal dynamics.
- Flexible pricing structures with hourly, flat fee or subscription fee models available. We meet clients where they are and allow them to choose which pricing structure works best at the time. Clients have flexibility to change their pricing structure if legal needs or budgets change.
- Quick and responsive legal assistance regardless of the matter size.
- Reduced legal delay by avoiding the paperwork, budget negotiation and other time delays that can occur with recruiting permanent or temporary legal hires or using legal staffing firms that pass along overhead costs.
