Dedicated To Effectively Solving Your Legal Problems

Providing Outside General Counsel Services To Ohio Businesses

Businesses throughout Ohio may face various legal challenges that can impact their daily operations, company interests and reputation. Resolving these matters often requires relying on experienced business law attorneys who can help guide business owners through the process of negotiation or litigation.

Through the Law Offices of Robert E. Adelman LLC, I provide outside general counsel services for businesses in Chagrin Falls. If you’re an Ohio business owner, I can work with you to find positive solutions for your legal needs.

Understanding Outside General Counsel

Outside general counsel allows companies to seek legal advice on an as-needed basis without hiring an in-house lawyer or legal team. Business law matters can range from complex contract breaches to navigating the steps of a business transaction. I have the knowledge necessary to act as an adviser and assist you with:

  • Developing legal strategies
  • Identifying and managing risks
  • Handling legal transactions
  • Drafting and reviewing contracts
  • Managing litigation
  • Employment issues

I have worked closely with local small and medium-sized businesses that need a trusted adviser on their side during unexpected legal challenges. Whether it’s reviewing commercial leases or litigating a serious dispute, I will fight to protect your company’s interests and minimize the risks against you.

What Are The Benefits Of Outside General Counsel?

Outside general counsel is often more cost-effective, as retaining in-house legal counsel comes with the burden of providing a full-time salary and benefits. Most small or medium-sized businesses may not have a consistent need for legal services, so it’s ideal to hire outside general counsel only when it’s necessary.

As outside general counsels are not full-time employees, they can often provide a more objective perspective on legal issues. They also tend to have a much wider range of experience in multiple areas of business law, which can be beneficial when providing legal advice.

When Should Businesses Seek Outside General Counsel?

There are many reasons an Ohio business may need to hire outside general counsel. You should consider seeking outside general counsel if:

  • You do not have an in-house legal adviser
  • Your company is facing complex legal matters
  • Your company is facing serious legal risks
  • You need assistance with regulatory compliance
  • You need specialized legal advice in a specific area of law

Legal issues can impact a company in devastating ways if not handled appropriately. As an experienced business law attorney, I can help you overcome the challenges your company’s facing and find a satisfactory outcome for everyone involved.
