Senior legal leadership integrated with the business.
Stinson Strategy provides embedded outside general counsel and strategic advisory services for companies that need senior legal judgment integrated into business decision-making without the fixed cost or infrastructure of a full-time general counsel.
You may need outside general counsel if…
- Legal issues are becoming more frequent or more strategic.
- Management is making business decisions without senior legal input.
- Contracts, governance, financing, or compliance issues are compounding.
- A financing, acquisition, partnership, or exit may be on the horizon.
- Outside counsel is being used reactively rather than strategically.
- The company needs legal leadership but not a full-time GC hire.
Strategic Counsel Retainer
The Strategic Counsel Retainer is designed for companies that need recurring access to senior legal judgment and practical business-oriented advice. This structure supports continuity across legal and strategic matters while avoiding the start-stop inefficiency of purely matter-by-matter legal support.
- General corporate advice
- Governance and risk guidance
- Commercial contract support
- Financing-related issue spotting
- Transaction readiness
- Coordination with specialized counsel
Retainer-forward by design.
Stinson Strategy is built for clients that value continuity, strategic judgment, and senior legal accountability. Selective hourly work is available for defined matters, but the highest-value relationships are structured around ongoing advisory support.
