General Counsel Services

Scalable Legal Support for Growing Companies

Most startups and small businesses face legal questions every week—but not every company is ready to hire a full-time in-house lawyer. That’s where we come in. At Jones Trial Attorneys, we offer ongoing general counsel services tailored to your stage of growth, budget, and business priorities. Think of us as your legal partner—available when you need us, without the overhead.

Flexible General Counsel Arrangements

We work with early-stage and mid-size companies on a fractional or flat-fee basis, offering services such as:

• On-demand legal advice by phone, email, or video call
• Scheduled office hours for executive teams or departments
• Retainer packages for predictable legal costs
• Embedded counsel support during major transactions or transitions

Our general counsel services are designed to scale with your business, from incorporation to acquisition.

Day-to-Day Business Support

We handle the legal details so you can focus on building. Our support covers:

• Commercial contract drafting and negotiation
• Employment law compliance and HR advising
• Intellectual property strategy and protection
• Vendor, reseller, and partnership agreements

You’ll receive consistent legal guidance from attorneys who understand your company’s operations, goals, and risk profile.

Risk Management and Legal Strategy

We don’t just respond to problems—we help you prevent them. As general counsel, we:

• Identify and mitigate emerging legal risks
• Implement internal controls and policies
• Prepare for fundraising, audits, or M&A events
• Advise on dispute resolution and litigation strategy

Our proactive approach helps you stay legally sound, investor-ready, and focused on execution.

Built for Startups. Ready for Scale.

Our clients include solo founders, venture-backed startups, and family-run businesses—all of whom need strategic, cost-effective legal support. We understand the pace and pressure of startup life, and we’re here to provide clarity when you need it most.

We bring the perspective of both corporate counsel and trial lawyers. That means we know how to write contracts that hold up in court—and how to guide you through risk with clarity and confidence. Our ongoing general counsel services give you trusted legal advice at your fingertips, without losing flexibility or control.
