The Advantage of General CounselBigger law firms excel at specialized legal tasks, such as complex mergers or patent litigation. But for the ongoing legal needs of your growing business, a skilled general counsel has the advantage. With a broad legal skillset, expertise at applying the law from a business perspective, and a deep understanding of how you compete in your market, a skilled general counsel can more efficiently negotiate and draft contracts, resolve disputes, and provide guidance on the laws that affect your business. |
Fitted to Emerging Growth CompaniesLarger companies get the advantage of skilled general counsel by hiring a full-time in-house legal team. The Thacker Law Firm was founded to bring that same advantage to emerging growth companies by combining the skills of an in-house general counsel with the on-demand flexibility of a law firm. This structure is complemented with a broad range of billing options, including hourly rate billing, project-based flat fees, and comprehensive flat rate legal plans. |
Standalone or as Part of a Legal TeamWith a broad range of skills and experience, backed up by a network of leading lawyers in specialized fields, I can provide comprehensive legal services to emerging growth companies. I also integrate well into existing legal teams. For companies with outside counsel at larger firms, I offer the advantage of an in-house approach on select projects. And for companies with an in-house legal team, I provide a means to expand legal capacity on-demand. |
