As your part time or interim,
in-house, general counsel the Lowenbaum Partnership will
provide your company with legal advice from a practical
and business perspective.
Initially, our attorneys will read
your industry's trade publications, the company's
website, press releases, annual reports, meet with your
decision makers to understand your company's business
philosophy, risk tolerance, aggressiveness, etc. and
otherwise become familiar with your company, as if we
were your employees.
You can have the benefit of an
in-house general counsel, who understands your company,
just like large publicly held companies have, but on a
part time basis, as and when needed, and your legal
matters will be monitored and supervised internally and
professionally.
We can be an integral part of your
management team and participate in internal meetings and
strategic planning sessions, so that we have knowledge
of your overall business activities and goals when we
advise on and formulate preventive programs and
solutions to legal issues. We can review your existing
policies, procedures, contracts, etc. in order to
increase your legal rights, prevent legal problems and
minimize lawsuits from vendors, customers and employees.
We can interact with and monitor any
other law firms you use as outside counsel to determine
the proper strategy, staffing and fees on each matter
and to prevent any unnecessary internal meetings,
research, memos, depositions, etc.
We will consider the
non-legal effects of legal issues and decisions on your
company’s financial statements, public relations (both
within your industry and otherwise), internal
relationships and perceptions, etc.
We will save the time of your
company’s executives who are now responsible for your
legal matters and deal with your outside counsel and who
may not be trained or experienced in handling legal
matters, like the responsibility or the legal projects
themselves, and/or give the legal matters the proper
time or priority.
