A continuing relationship
Legal support that builds on an understanding of your business, its people and its priorities.
OUR APPROACH
Senior legal support with the perspective of an in-house general counsel: practical, commercially focused and built around your priorities.

THE GENERAL COUNSEL
Drawing on over 20 years’ experience from major law firms and in-house legal practice, The General Counsel brings senior legal support to businesses on a flexible subscription.
We work with clients across the UK and in all sectors, including SMEs and larger businesses that would benefit from legal support without the commitment of employing a full-time in-house lawyer or paying the higher hourly rates of a law firm.
Our starting point is understanding your business and its priorities. That context and working within your business helps us give commercial advice you can easily implement, whether you are negotiating a contract, in a dispute with a supplier, addressing an employment question, or planning your next stage of growth.
WHAT SHAPES OUR APPROACH
Legal support that builds on an understanding of your business, its people and its priorities.
Clear explanations of the issues and options, with your commercial objectives in view.
A subscription for ongoing advice, with additional hours and separate project bundles when you need them.
