FAQ

What is the difference between an outside general counsel and an in-house legal team?

An outside general counsel provides legal services on an as-needed basis, while an in-house legal team is employed directly by a company and handles all legal matters internally.

Outside counsel offers flexibility and cost-effectiveness, particularly for small and medium businesses that don't require full-time legal support. In-house legal teams provide more immediate access to legal support but can be a significant expense.

What are the typical fees for outside general counsel services?

Our fees vary depending on the scope of the services required, the complexity of the legal issues involved, and the time commitment needed. We offer flexible billing options to fit your budget, including hourly rates, flat fees, and retainer agreements. We are transparent about our fees and will provide you with a detailed estimate upfront.

How can you help me avoid costly legal disputes?

We believe in a proactive approach to legal matters. We'll draft contracts that aim to protect your interests, help you develop sound business practices to reduce legal risks and advise you on potential legal issues before they escalate into disputes. We'll also help you negotiate effectively with other parties, striving to achieve favorable outcomes and avoid unnecessary legal battles.

What is the best way to protect my intellectual property in Miami?

Miami is a hub for innovation and creativity, so protecting your intellectual property is crucial. We can help you secure the necessary legal protections for your valuable assets, including trademarks, copyrights, and patents. We'll also guide you on enforcing your intellectual property rights and defending your brand against infringement.
