The GCL unites the flexibility of outside legal counsel with the convenience of a dedicated corporate law department. All of the GCL attorneys have years of experience as internal or outside corporate counsel. This translates to quick, effective integration into your business environment.
The GCL delivers high quality, cost-effective services to our business clients in three basic delivery forms:
- out-sourced outside corporate counsel
- integrated in-house corporate counsel
- project-focused and temporary corporate counsel
The GCL strives to offer our clients the best features of three different service options – out-sourced outside counsel, integrated in-house counsel and temporary counsel – and thereby deliver high-quality, flexible services on a cost-effective basis.

Out-sourced Outside Corporate Counsel
For companies without a legal department, our experienced attorneys can serve as an affordable and accessible part-time outside counsel on an as-needed basis. Making regular visits or working on company premises, the GCL attorneys can help manage legal affairs so the management team can devote more time to the growth of the business.
Integrated In-house Corporate Counsel
For companies with an in-house legal staff, the GCL can add affordable capabilities and flexibility with no increase to employee headcount. The GCL attorneys can work in a virtual environment or on your company premises.
Project-focused and Temporary Corporate Counsel
The GCL can be of particular value handling special projects, such as those critical longer-term and preventative law projects that typically get bypassed for other more urgent matters.
Fee Arrangements
In an effort to best meet our clients' needs, we will entertain flexible and creative fee arrangements.
Our standard fee arrangements include:
- Hourly: This arrangement involves a standard, hourly rate. Clients are billed for the time a GCL attorney invests in a project.
- Retainer: The retainer program offers significant discounts based upon a longer term commitment and regularly scheduled time.
- Project: This arrangement provides a fixed fee for a set amount of work.
