OUTSIDE COUNSEL / SERVICES

Fractional legal counsel for founders & business operators

Contract & NDA review billed by the hour for one flat fee back in a few weeks back in 48 hours

Senior judgment on your agreements, without the full-time hire or the big-firm bill.

Kyron Johnson, Attorney at Law
K. Johnson · commenton your engagement

“You should know exactly what a review costs before you engage. So you will.”

The problem

A one-page problem shouldn't come with an open-ended bill.

Most contract help is priced for the firm's convenience, not yours. You want to know the risk, the cost, and the answer — today.

01

You're handed an NDA and a deadline, with no easy way to tell what's standard and what's a trap.

02

Hourly counsel turns a simple review into an unpredictable invoice you can't plan around.

03

Big firms are built for big companies — not for a founder who needs a clear answer this week.

Pricing

Priced before you engage. Every time.

Flat fees for one-off work. Monthly plans when you need counsel on an ongoing basis. Either way, you get the number up front.
